Why is India looking at Army, Navy and Air Force Chiefs? Do they really matter?

MoD has five Secretaries heading different departments.

MoD has five Secretaries heading different departments.

1. MoD Secretary No.1-Department of Defence (DoD). The “Defence Secretary” heads DoD responsible for the defence of India, preparation for defence and all acts .....
3/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

....all acts as may be conducive in times of war. He is tasked to ensure the defence of the country and not that of the Service Chiefs, nor of the President or PM.
4/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

Def Secy can be from Rural Development, Panchayati Raj, Fisheries or even Animal Husbandry. ALL HAVE ZERO KNOWLEDGE OF DEFENCE MATTERS.
5/n 4/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

2. MoD Secretary No.2-Department of Defence Production (DDP).
Any non performing bureaucrat can be appointed as Secretary DDP.
Development of indigenous defence industry is DDP’s prime responsibility. DDP........
6/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

DDP has 40 unproductive ordnance factories and nine defence PSUs and no presence.

3. MoD Secretary No.3- Defence Research and Development Organisation. (DRDO)
DRDO has 52 laboratories in multiple disciplines.....
7/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

It employs over 5,000 scientists and about 25,000 other scientific, technical and supporting personnel. The track record of DRDO is abysmal to say the least.

4. MoD Secretary No.4-Department of Ex-serviceman Welfare (DESW) DESW
8/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

DESW deals with all resettlement, welfare and pensionary matters of ex-servicemen and is totally manned by bureaucrats. Veterans and Widows suffer but no one is interested.
9/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

5. MoD Secretary No.5- Defence Finance Division (Def Fin). Any graduate, even in subjects like Sanskrit, English Litt and History can become the secretary.

Got it? YOUR security and National Security.....
10/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

Got it? YOUR security and National Security is in hands of these five Secretaries in MoD who have no clue of Defence.

The service headquarters are mere attached offices. They do not form part of the decision making apparatus.
11/n #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

These FIVE SECRETARIES REPORT TO RAKSHA MANTRI. One of them represents three Chiefs and reports to NSA.

Where are Army, Navy & Airforce Chiefs? NO WHERE. So why look up to them?
12/LAST #MeSanjayPandeThinks 12 Sep 2020 #DidYouKnow ?

NOW you will know why NO ONE TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR GALWAN MURDERS OF TWENTY SOLDIERS.

STAY SAFE INDIA... I will always stand for and in front of you. JAI HIND

1/n My thread on #KashmirThroughMyEyes talks about how abrogation of Article 370 broke the back of #CounterInsurgencyIndustry in Kashmir. Everyone milked Kashmir. With one stroke the spine of this industry was broken. That was Kashmir. What was the bigger game?
2/n I now do a thread on #MilkingPakistanBogey on how Milking Pakistan was a full time job of politicians, military men, bureaucrats, middlemen and commission agents. It paid to keep Pakistan as Enemy No.1. How did a country with 1/20th of our GDP become a national passion?
3/n #MilkingPakistanBogey Galwan has broken spine of the Pakistan Bogey lot. Balakot- ‘Hamne ghus ke mara’ to going back to 1971 when breaking Pakistan into two was the biggest event exploited by IG. From Indira Gandhi to current PM, story was same. NOT ANY MORE.

1/n #ChinaGoogly Please understand, China has NO specific point of Startegic Intetest in Ladakh. Every inch of ground of Himalayas, highest points as seen from China overlooking India is CHINAs STRATEGIC INTEREST. Shakshgam Valley, J&K to Kibothoo, Arunachal Pradesh
2/n #ChinaGoogly is of China’s Strategic Interest. This massive 4000-5000km CONCAVE curved Himalayas help China. All points are accessible. By concentrating troops near border in one region and holding back in depth in another confuses India. China follows every.......
3/n #ChinaGoogly... every Strateguc Expert, Defence Writers, TV Panelists, Veterans, Columnists, International Writers AND the Government overtly and covertly. What is India throwing up? China will focus on Depsang, Pangong Tso and couple of more places. It’s FINITE.

1/n #Nepotism A word associated with Politics & Bollywood. There are organisations where it runs deeper. It’s blasphemy if you talk. Politics & Bollywood identify nepotism with own generations. We have orgs where strange connections make a family. Nepotism is like ambient noise.
2/n #Nepotism Everybody knows nepotism in Think Tanks, Boards of Corporations, NGOs, Academia, Media, Charity Org & how they influence tax, safety, reg, health, edu policies. This is not the nepotism I talk of. This is juvenile. It’s just Money. I really don’t care. There is more
3/n #Nepotism in Government, Bureaucracy, Military and ANY organisation that deals with country, national security, national interests etc. is far more dangerous that commercially motivated nepotism like in Bollywood, Politics etc. This dangerous #Nepotism is not to be spoken.

1/n #IndoChinaCrisis2020 If this doesn’t open our eyes and shake us nothing will. Rigidity of thoughts, being blind to reality, arrogance of rulers supported by spineless ‘jee huzoor’ variety of military advisers brings us to knees. India is silent today. Silence is deafening.
2/n #IndoChinaCrisis2020 Everybidy is silent. Generals, Strategists, hi flying panelists, intellectuals and the creme-de-la-creme Security Advisors who ‘screamed’ are silent. The people, the Genersls & the strategists who ask questions are villains. Towing line is ‘Nationalism’.
3/n #IndoChinaCrisis2020 I have asked a 100 questions covering 58 years, 1962-2020, but there are no answers. It’s extremely easy to split these 58 years into Congress & BJP & start a mud slinging match. It suits both, why? Simply because it splits 58 years and deflects attention

1/n Stunned by a couple, 70&67yrs age, educated, who kept on defending Ramdev-Patanjali CORONIL. What knowledge this couple has? Why convince me that a ‘solution’ has been found? What is this blind Bhakti? Are we a nation of IDIOTS? World mocks at us.
2/n Within a month of lockdown we had inventors of Ventilators, mass manufacture by Maruti, Mahindra jumped, medicines were found, IITs jumped in fray, AIIMS & others announced success. WTF ??? Where are they now? Cases hit SIX LACS on 01 July. Are be a bunch of unethical liars?
3/n #CoronaFraud Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial & numerous other top institutes are struggling for a solution, here we have everything. From vaccine to medicines, from ventilators to hospitals.Are these leading institutes manned by idiots? Why does establishment fool India?
