In a country where the rich, and even most other citizens shy away from joining the army, this praise on army looks like a bribe to me. Had it not been so, they would have been telling - ' I am too old to join now, but am directing my son/grandson to join up. '
No, they don't do that. They simply pay money, praise my soldiers and are back to their MNC jobs.
That makes the praise look like a bribe to me - for the next war. That is a mercenary game.
In UK, the son of the Queen fights. In USA, son of President fought and died in war.
In Germany, the army was officered by Counts and Vons. Not in India. They open a shop(pe).
The PM/RM/NSA/cabinet ministers are all very eager to defend the nation - at my cost.
Noble nationalists are very hateful towards Pak, China and terrorists - but not loving enough for India, to offer life. Indian army short of 10,000 officers, in a country of people looking desperately for any job - other than those where life at risk.
