1. My SALUTE to every Veteran who stand in Theatres, Self-made Videos AND are dying to glorify ‘I was there’ to cash on KASHMIR FILES. Now..now..HOW MANY FOR “KARGIL FILES???” Kargil has nothing to do with BJP. It’s to do with Congress. Build up took place over years. Right?
2. #KargilFiles So why not KARGIL FILES? 2024 will see the SILVER JUBILEE of Kargil Murders. It will be all festivity to ‘celebrate’ victory. Victory to wrest own land? Victory to celebrate 527 killed to hide failure of Generals? @vedmalik1 has blocked me because I asked
3. #KargilFiles one question, ‘whose hands are smeared with blood of 527 dead soldiers? I reciprocated. I BLOCKED @VedMalik1 too. EVERY Retired Corps Commander of 15 Corps Srinagar and Army Commanders Northern Command must comment on #KargilFiles Why should India not know truth?
4. #KargilFiles @rwac48 and his coterie write so much promoting him as Defence Minister. He has written so exhaustively on China post-Galwan. ‘I was Army Commander Northern Command’. Excellent. Same with Retired General Hooda. Kargil is under Northern Command.
5. #KargilFiles Why doesn’t Bollywood make a ‘thoroughly researched’ movie on Kargil and call it #KargilFiles ? In fact @PMOIndia must encourage making of such movie to clear BJPs name. BJP Govt was presented a fait-accompli. It just happened to be there. Enough of LAKSHYA movies
6. #KargilFiles Indian Army is FINEST ARMY at Commanding Officer level AND below it. Why did Kargil happen? Who let it happen? What led to the launch of offensive to take back own area? #KargilFiles must lay things bare. Gen VP Malik tries to be centre stage everywhere. Excellent
7. #KargilFiles Now shouldn’t the country add to the glory, celebrations and whip nationalist feelings in 2024 by bringing out KARGIL? Like Anupam Khers of Army, let 100% truth come out. Let all information be given to Bollywood. #KargilFiles WILL NEVER COME OUT. Reason?
8. #KargilFiles after all there is something called ‘Lobby’.

1. Ukraine had no army worth protecting their own country. They had no Air Force or Navy. Today every ‘conventional’ armed forces member is either not seen or is mixed with civilians / hiding in cities for urban warfare. Entire countryside is a ‘free for Russia’ area.
2. What war is this? Russia, right from day 1, targeted infrastructure, IT hubs, networks and any and everything that takes decades to rebuild. Their aim is to cause damage of proportion that will take 4-5 decades to rebuild. None will dare to rebuild Ukraine. Where are Indian
3. pro-Ukraine lobbies? Without knowledge of ego-politics we had a million experts. The BEST were few Retired Lt Generals who published ‘Lessons Learnt from Ukraine War’ after 10 days of war. War is serious business. War is geopolitics.

1/n #EasyMedicalDegrees UKRAINE has brought into focus the ‘plight’ of students. WHY do these students go to Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Bulgaria and more such countries in Eastern Europe region? Everyone says it is COST there vs COST IN INDIA. There is MUCH MORE to it.
2/n #EasyMedicalDegreesHere is ‘AAJ KA KNOWLEDGE’.
•Cost 15-20 lacs for six years vs 70 lacs to 2 crores in India for 4 year + six month internship course
•Competition is less
•No entrance exam in most
•No criteria for entrance
•Percentage in class 12 does not matter
3/n #EasyMedicalDegreesHere
•Circumvent Govt of India 2018 directive for students wanting to go abroad for medical UG degree where appearing in NEET is mandatory. Govt cut off is TWENTY PERCENT. These students appear, get 20% and become eligible.

1. #ReformEducation Sir, It is blasphemy to discuss this. Instead of reducing reservations they are increasing.
1.Reservation should be for maximum two generations only.
2.Not even one person, regardless of Bureaucrat or earning more than 10 lacs per Yr should be eligible
2/n 3. make economic criteria sole reason for reservation. 4. Do not SUPPRESS merit and prevent meritorious students from leaving India by giving world class opportunities here.
3/n 5. Select 750 products and make 750 districts the ‘core’ production centres. 6. Base startups and turn education towards vocational and encourage entrepreneurs. 7. Encourage manufacturing hubs of Defence Hardware in every state. This industry will never die.

Episode 2 - Armed Forces and Geopolitics - NOR HERE NOR THERE Col Sanjay Pande & Prof. Sonali...


Nor Here Nor There, Armed Forces are not required for internal security and have no place in geopolitics. They are just AT THE BORDER. Where is Academia?
Where are Policy makers? Is this triangle made by Academia-Forces-Policy Makers the 'Bermuda Triangle for our National Security or as a 'TRIPOD' it is the most stable platform?

For Armed Forces to take care of external threat, the minimum requirement is to know about the enemy.
It is not what is opposite us in form of enemy military but the state of the complete country and its neighbours. Tactics must seamlessly flow into strategy.

Military Officers need to be introduces to Geopolitics and Geo-strategy from the day they step into armed forces.

‘Third Front War’ is all about merging of geopolitics, geo-strategy and military strategy. Unless the conventional mindset is changed, we will fight 1944 battles in 2022 and prepare for 2072 war using 2022 lessons. Military minds in India are at least 50-75 years behind today.
Want to ‘learn’ from Russia-Ukraine War? Don’t get involved with day-to-day events. @HQ_IDS_India Please give this as a theme to every training institution down to NDA, IMA, OTA, AFA, NA upwards upto every operational Corps. Debate 1. Geo-Politics 2. Geo-Strategy 3. Mil-Strategy
@HQ_IDS_India Create an environment to learn NOT Ukraine-Russia conflict, but to understand what these three terms mean. You will be surprised by output. It’s the best mental exercise to change mindset. We require Military Leaders- this is the basis to make one.

1/n #ChangeOrPerish My advise to @HQ_IDS_India If we do not change the mindset of training military minds, we will continue to be an assembly line that produces rusted minds. With Ukraine happening, entire military establishment @adgpi @IAF_MCC and @indiannavy should be ….
2/n #ChangeOrPerish @HQ_IDS_India should be discussing it real time. Promotion Exams should be dynamic in nature. Include 100% military and geopolitics events happening across globe. Keep military minds sharp. @adgpi you need to introspect few issues that I bring in this thread.
3/n #ChangeOrPerish @HQ_IDS_India Geopolitics and Military Mindset
Officers of age 30 yrs and less are studying the following in Military History (source of information Natraj Publishers) for their promotion to Majors Rank:
