1. #IndiaChina Chinese villages, construction, activity and frenzy on Indian side all displays only one aspect, ‘shallowness of our knowledge’ and ‘fear of facts’. Have we ever kept finger on where the problem started? Nehru. Has BJP been….
2. #IndiaChina able to convince India of what went wrong, who is to blame and why 1962 war was avoidable? BJP cannot since the overuse of ‘Nehru’ in any and every ill India faces has brought this serious topic of China to a stage where the inheritance is sinking BJPs credibility
3. #IndiaChina The facts are, 1. Today’s state is due to Nehru 2. BJP has a golden chance to correct everything. 3. BJP has not even one leader or military advisor who has knowledge and courage to bring it to notice. 4. Never have yes men brought this to such a low level.
4. #IndiaChina BJP is on very strong ground to rewrite history based on facts about the India-China Border history from 1500AD to 1947, 1947 to 1962 & from 1962 to 2020 Pre-Galwan. It needs to be told by people who will be trusted and not be embroiled in political mud slinging.
5. #IndiaChina The focus on ‘experts’ talking about China can be seen in social media. Not even one ex-Chief writes, Ex-Army Commanders write on ‘micro’ issues focusing on tactical aspects, others use internet material to sound relevant and the citizens feel it’s a complex issue.
6. #IndiaChina Never in independent history of India has the state come where China nibbles our land, kills soldiers and intimidates us and the best reaction we have is is to close our eyes? If BJP does not rewrite the narrative, all talk of ‘one nation’ will be waste.
7. #IndiaChina WILL YOU BE INTERESTED to learn facts? Form your own opinion? Research to find more truth? And be patient enough not to sir opinion before knowing the facts? That’s how we form opinion right? I plan to do few videos on my channel to firstly, cover 1500-1947….
8. #IndiaChina …. Thereafter secondly, to cover 1947 to 1962, thirdly, 1962-2020 and give my frank unbiased opinion. WILL YOU BE INTERESTED? It will all be on my YouTube Channel under the playlist ‘National Security’.
If interested, just RT Tweet 7 & 8.

1. The STRONGEST OPPOSITION is from VETERANS ON ROLLS OF ALL BANKS DISBURSING PENSIONS. Shocked? Each bank employs Veterans of Ranks Retd Lt Generals as in SBI, Major Generals and Brigadiers to head their Defence Departments. These are high paying kushi jobs.
2. Senior most Veteran in these banks sits in the Corporate HQ, hires his lower hierarchy from retired officers. The perks and salary is excellent besides pension. Car, Rent, Loans etc. is a dream job. Their task? GET AS MANY PENSIONERS as possible. Extend loans and increase biz.
3. Banks CHARGE Ministry of Defence Rs 800/- per pensioners account. Each has a ‘Centralised Pension Processing Centre’ e.g. Bank of India in Nagpur, SBI in Belapur etc. If a bank disburses One lac pensions, it earns Rs 8 Cr from MoD budget. 34 lac pensioners of MoD.

1/n #AFT #GenerallySilent #AblyDisabled

Generally Silent & Ably Disabled hashtags will come regularly. It’s a big jigsaw puzzle when pieced together get simple answers to complex questions.

This thread is matter-of-fact thread that gives what is already there in public domain.
2/n #AFT #GenerallySilent #AblyDisabled

It’s about Armed Forces Tribunal. AFT is under Ministry of Defence. All other tribunals in India are under Ministry of Law and Justice.

In India we, by tradition, bend from waist to the boss’. Boss of AFT is Ministry of Defence.
3/n #AFT #GenerallySilent #AblyDisabled

100% Disability Pension cases BY ORDER can only be brought to AFT. Courts can be approached challenging AFT judgements.

Hence, I asked on Twitter five questions. Those who actually know were ‘Generally Silent’. I had only one response.

Will make an exception. I will use your tweet to make a point. 1. You seem to be a senior veteran made out by ‘Tam Marte Quam Minerva’, your handle that means’as much by war as by wisdom’ the motto of Pakistan Staff College, Quetta. 2. Are you person of Pakistani origin?
3. Of Indian and a veteran who is an ESM and held a high rank in service, which is very probable, then why hide identity? 4. Forces Widows issue seems to have hit you hard because you have no idea of widows of your own unit. 5. You again have no idea of inequality in pension.
6. You have absolutely no idea since you never were concerned. You are pained since when this issue comes on social media, you look silly. 7. Did you follow the poll on Pensions of Forces Widows? Obviously you did. That’s why the pain. 7. Did you read one Retired ......

1. Sir, you combine all or you let them remain separate, question is does military have its ‘mind’ for such big concepts? 1. Three Strike Corps have consumed lacs of crores since raising and the Light Tanks are Eureka moment now. 2. Two front war was alien term till last June.
2. With numerous Armoured Corps Chiefs and Army Commanders, the Infantry glitterati in Northern and Eastern Command, Retired and on social media, did anyone ever suggest abrogation of 370? Ways to end Insurgency? Military’s macro and micro understanding is extremely limited.
3. ‘Vision’ needs to be backed by conviction. If you have vision and conviction, you will certainly not have a rank. Army is always about getting next promotion. When complete energy is focused on getting rank, where does vision and conviction go? Military is about ....

My deep study of the Disability mess of Army Jawans led me to study the whole system from 'womb to tomb'. Surprisingly it came out and fitted so correctly in the Management Principle propounded by me. Retired Generals and Lt Generals cannot impact or influence the system.
The worrying part is what use are these ranks when they have no impact on the system, which everyone proclaims to be existing? This is the effect of 'Relevantly-Irrelevant'. Entire system is investing their time, effort and energy into keeping the current practice alive.
There is little or no corruption. There is that deep desire to keep the system alive since it feeds thousands with white money. Where is the 'RAW MATERIAL'? or rather WHO is the raw material? Its the DISABLED. Will the system feed thousands if this raw material finishes?
