Compulsory Military Training for Youth

In a good move by govt., the defence minister proposed to give military training to the students of boarder area. Even experts believe that it will helps the civilians to defence themselves in area especially in areas affected by terrorists and moist. Students from these area should be put in training from the middle schools itself. This will not only helps students in understanding the importance of national security, but can also defense themselves from the conditions.
Although NCC training is introduced in schools and collages but this used to train the cadets about the field training. Secondly NCC is not compulsory in schools and collages. it is included as extra carricular activities. There is need to introduce it as compulsory subject in the course.

Today defence minister informed in parliament that it can be included in course as subject. He said that daily one hour training would be held in which students will know about the military and its role.They will also be trained like soldiers.
There is a successful example of military training in Punjab boarder areas in past also where villagers were trained to fight against militants.

As in Indian constitution there is amendment about the compulsory military training like many other countries. But it is not in practice.It is on individual choice about military training.

During my training in NCC we were taught various role of army.They teach us about firing, rescue operations on small scale, aware about the safety taken during any clamities. 

Training involves according to the geographical areas in NCC. Like in coastal areas they trained cadets in sea also.
There is need to implement the NCC training extensively.

26/11- Unforgetable Past

Today India is paying homage to the martyrs of 26/11 attack on Mumbai. It was one of the most long  lasting operations launched by security forces to take control over the city.

Six Years ago on 26th November 2008 group of 10 militants attacks Mumbai make hostage the city for 4 days. At least 164 victims were killed including 28 citizens from 10 foreign countries. More than 600 persons were injured
All 10 militants were from Pakistan. They got training from Lashkar-e-Taieba along with the help of ISI. They were divided into 5 groups each having 2 members. They had attacks important palces like Hotel Taj Mahal Palaces and Tower, Oberoi Tridents,Leopad Cafe, Nariman House.They were highly trained by the pakistani intelligence ISI and Lashker-e-Taiba to how to stay alive during operations. The Inquiry committe stated that it was "war like " situations and was beyond the capacity of police force.

One can imagine their training that India had to call their best commandos NSG and MARCOS for rescue operation. before inclusion of commandos mumbai police tried their best to rescue the hostages and to secure the city.During operations they lost their officers like ACP Ashok Kamte, Inspector Vijay Salskar,ATS chief Hemant Karkare,ASI Tukaram Omble, were martyred .
During NSG operations in Hotel TAJ 2 NSG commandos were also martyred. They were Maj. Sandip Unikrishann and Hav. Gajendra Singh.
Only one militant Ajmal Kasab can be captured alive by the security force .This led the pakistani authority on the back foot.
On 21st november 2012 he was also hanged in yarwada jail. This brings the 26/11 chapter close here. This gives affected families a great relief.

Lets pray that God give strength to the family of the affected people.

We will always arise  no matter whatever the conditions will be.

A long wait after "BOFORS"

Today Defence Minister clears proposal to buy 814 artillery guns for around 16,000 crores rupees for army.
As per reports out of 814 guns, 100 are purchased from foreign company while remaining 714 will be manufactured in India by transferring the technology as a part of Make In India program. Indian firms like TATA, LARSEN AND TURBO are supposed to come forward. They can make these guns ny their own technology or they can sign deal with foreign firms and transfer the technology.


As per current situations, it is necessary to upgrade the defence strength. It has been around 30 years when India had last purchased  BOFORS. But this deals became an source of troubles for the govt  due to scam was surfaced. Army was asking for new artillery guns long before as Bofors was outdated. But govt. was postponding the deals as no one wants to put their hands in the deal because it was like putting your hand in the fire bowl as there is a very deep relations between defence deals and scams.
There is a lot of examples like Bofors scam or coffin scam  or very recent VVIP helicopter deals scam. This leads to the misery of the govt.

Due to scams many of defence deals are in wait for many years like purchasing of rafale aircraft for airforce,deals for trainer aircraft,deals of 56 air transport craft. etc.

As our new defence minister has gave clearance for purchasing new artillery guns, it is hoped that other pending deals will also be approved in near future.
It is a good start by the govt. but lets pray that this deals does not postponed by scams because if a fresh scam floats then govt. will not going to clear any deals in near future. As once deals gets disapproved  it takes many years to again clearance..

INS VIKRANT- PRIDE OF INDIAN NAVY

Going through today's news  my eyes stuck on a headlines: "India's first aircraft carrier fades into history.."

India's first aircraft carrier ship INS VIKRANT comes to an end on 21st november 2014 as the worker began scrapping down the warship. INS VIKRANT  was British aircraft carrier which was purchased by India in 1957 in incomplete stage.This was the first aircraft carrier of the Asia at that time.

I am sharing some facts about INS VIKRANT :
1. The ship was being built for British Navy during world war -II. But didn't  complete its construction due to end of war.
2. It was later bought by India in 1957 in incomplete stage and again refitted for the use of navy.
3. It takes four years to complete te construction. The ship was bulid in Britain.
4. It was comissioned in Indian Navy in 1959 and start ins operation in 1961.
5. It plays an important role during 1971 Indo-Pak war and imerging of neew nation Bangladesh. It was the most Glorious Chapter of Vikrant.
6. It was 192 meters long.She had full load of 20,000 tonnes of displacement.
7. Capt. Pritam Singh was the first commander of the ship.
8. Lt. R.H.Tahilinai was the first pilot who landed first aircraft on the carrier. He later appointed as Chief of Naval Staff  in 1984 and retired in 1987.
9. INS VIKRANT was awarded 2 MAHAVIR CHAKRAS and 12 VIR CHAKRAS.
10. It was decommissioned on 31st january 1997 after distinguished service of 37 YEARS. After it serves as musuem at mumbai..
11. After end of 1971 war when it returns, It receives a tremendous love from the citizen. C.M M.G. Ramachandran organised a special program and servedmeal for all crew of INS VIKRANT.

As it was the first carrier in south asia ,it gained much popularity than other carrier in asia.
When the auction for the scrapping of carrier was held by navy it was opposed by the civilians because they want that govt. should preserve the ship for her glorious history. But it was not easy as maintenance cost was high and no private firms were ready to fund it.

It is sad for all of us that we were not able to preserve the ship as museum.

WE WILL MISS YOU "INS_VIKRANT".You will always be the pride of INDIAN NAVY..

498A- Right or Wrong

Read Somewhere that a family was accused false for DOWRY.

Recently cases against boy's family increases. Many of them prove wrong later.

The Anti-Dowry Law(498A) was made for decreasing the cases of dowry. But unfortunately it became an Ultimate weapon for bride's family. A single line complain either in written or orally by wife or her family can land husband and his family into jail without ANY investigation.
Many times girl's family misuse the law. I remember one incident which took place in my village last year.

Last year I went my native place during summer vacation. Suddenly we heard screaming of woman in my neighbor. We rush to her house. After reaching there we see that a woman was injured burned by Lantern accidentally. Fire catches in her Saree accidentally and she was burned almost 60-70 percent.
We rush to the hospital.Next morning her family member came and decided to lodge a complain against the boy and his family for harassing the girl for dowry. They also accused husband for injuring in the night.
But the fact was at the time of accident her husband and whole family went to attend a marriage function in the village. The girl's family were not in the mood of negotiating. They were not to accept the fact.
They lodged the complain for harassing the girl for dowry without even consulting the girl. When Police come to arrest the family, the girl save them and take back the complain.



The anti-dowry law was made for stop the cases of dowry.But unfortunately this law make the husband family to live in the shadow of fear.  Even SC of India has criticized this law.

Recently one film was released which show how to make use of Dowry law against the family.
It does not only ruin the image of the family but also make them accused in the society whether they are or not.
And even those cases proved wrong there is no action against the girl's family.WHY???

The girl's family should think what would they feel when their daughter-in-law lodged a false complaint against them???

Army and Media

Few day back two civilians were killed in firing of army in Jammu & Kashmir.

Initially it was said that army opened fire because they did not stop their car at 3 checkpost.So they decided to fire.

After incident media started claming that they were killed without an proof. If they would be terrorist and succed in their plan then same media would start blaming army.
Political parties and NHRC also started blaming armed forces and demanding for arrest of the army personals. They are also demanding withdraw of the AFSPA which give special power to armed forces to in "disturbed areas".

WHERE was these parties and NHRC when the kashmiries were pelting stones on the soldiers.
Does these soldiers have not any rights?

When any civilians were killed in soldiers firing by mistake media will show repeatedly on T.V and even debate, But when any soldiers martyred they will not debate on this. They just simply show one-line statement at the bottom of the screen.
NHRC never ask reports on the army personal killed by terrorist ,,innocent people killed by Pakistan from across the border...WHY???
Has NHRC ever called for such reports when innocent people are killed by terrorist??If not why??
Are these people does not have any RIGHT?
Why media are not showing other parts of the story that they did not stop on the 3 army checkposts when soldiers signelled them to stop.?
Who gave license to teenagers to drive cars?
They must know that Army is the backbone of the country defence.
Army  is the pride of the country..

We should also praise  our army works because of them we can sleep and live peacefully in our homes..
