What the foes, years of insurgency couldn't do ,the sixth pay commission has done. They have demoralised more than 20000 officers(LT Col and equi) of the three Services by demoting them and they form the backbone of the three Services. You really wonder, all this scarifice for a thankless nation. You are not paid, not allowed to leave the Services and all for a pitiance. In this country u get penalised for performance , no wonder here we are. For people thinking to join it is nothing but slavery.
