Re: [HumJanenge] Re: Antony takes on Defence Corruption

 I also feel Defence Minister ought to be Army man.

All ADMIN SERVISES ie., IAS, IPS,IFS & ALLIED SERVICES, the entry / eligibility should be through 5 years mandatory service in the army/air force/navy/Para mil forces.

Edn sys need to be reversed back to before Lord Macaulay's to have morality back in us all.

Dear Mr Sarbajit,

Your comment below reminds me of a country which thought that why should they spend money and effort on the safeguards of their nuclear plants as no one can destroy them. They got blasted through an unexpected Tsunami. Other well to do countries quickly modified their plans to handle their own nuclear plants. Suddenly costs lost all concerns and the safety and security of their people became the prime concern.

Jai Hind.

With warm regards,

Col Mahesh Khera

So 2 "good" men between them have ensured that thousands of crores of
rupees will be sent out of the country to buy more and more arms which
are never used (and which probably dont work anyway - like the Barak
and Brahmos missile systems)
