Have ever heard any one person claiming be Bharatiye or Indian. We introduce ourselves as Gujarati,Marathi/Maharashtrian, Christian,punjabi, sikh, bihari, bengali, malyali, tamil, assamee, naga, manipuri, brahmin, vaishya, upper class businessmen, actor, singer,dancermuscians, but never as Indian/Bharatiye.People of Germany never do that so also americans and people from canada. Even people of Arabistan.The people of our immediateneibhour call themselves Pakistani Chinese and Bangldeshi,nepali.

It is the OTHER WAY ROUND!!!!If you close your eyes and say everything is fine - well you are living in a world which will soon teach you lessons.Yes, honest and integrity is very difficult to find or put it as "namumkin" to get.There are very few, yes very few people and can be counted on fingers.cheersrahul

what nonsense! it is as if only General Singh and you are honest! every other general in the army, the cabinet, and of course the supreme court judges who asked him to take a walk, are all corrupt!! OMG!!! such arrogance and self righteousness of a handful are the real danger to democracy in this country....

A corrupt cabal had conspiredsince 2006 to truncate Gen. VK Singh's tenure by digging out UPSC applicationform and trashing his School Certificate.Yet, neither the DoB issue is over yet, as is beingwrongly believed, nor is the tenure of General VK Singh going to end in thenext two months as is being widely claimed. The fact is that Supreme Court hasput the ball back in the court of MoD by ruling: "As a matter of fact, thequestion before us in the Writ Petition is not about the determination ofactual date of birth of the petitioner, butit concerns the recognition of a particular date of birth of the petitioner bythe respondent (Government of India) in the official service record."It is therefore imperative that the MoDhas to first pass a legally speaking order 'recognising' Gen.VK Singh's realDoB as per law and Rules that hold School Certificate as paramount. This hasnot been done and the retirement orders of Gen VK Singh have not been served onhim till now. Yet MoD has nominated and named his successor (for whose benefit the entire conspiracy and manipulation took place) to take over asCOAS on 31 May 2012.This action is untenable and the real cause of the messthat MoD has got into and only they are to be blamed. Instead they are tryingto pass it on to Gen. VK Singh by insinuating that he is now a 'frustrated man'and is trying to rake up the Tatra bribery issue and leaking out his letter on'defence preparedness' to PM to seek revenge. Some MPs, including congenitally corruptones, have asked for Gen VK Singh's summary dismissal and arrest without evenholding an enquiry!This way of portraying theserving chief of the Indian Army as an adversary just because he is fightingagainst corruption and injustice is wrought with serious danger andconsequences. It is our Armed Forces who have defended and protected ourdemocracy through their valour, sacrifice and total sense of patriotism, bereftof any political ambitions as in our neighbouring countries. It is largelybecause of them that India stands tall as a free and sovereign Republic. Among the armed forces, the Army is the largest andthe most visible face. The chief of that force has a special status in thenation's affairs and he cannot be distinguished from the Institution he heads. When aninstitution like the Army is impaled, it is the people who bleed.Thepolitico-bureaucratic power coterie that is trying to bulldoze the Army Chiefis very distressing. If the serving Army Chief is treated this way and thesecorrupt cabals have their final say at least for two generations, no militarycommander will raise his head. And the message for military commanders will bethat it isn't merit, honesty or integrity that will get them promotions andtenures but pandering to the corrupt politico-bureaucratic cabal. The lastbastion of professional meritocracy in India will be crumbled and the damagewill be lasting.This is an open war between the honest and the corrupt and cannot becountenanced in the interest of national security and integrity in governanceIit time people with conscience stood up and be counted..
