Unnoticed Martyr!
by Anand Menon on Oct 03, 2007 04:44 PM

Hi, it's heart wrenching to hear about Major. Vinay's death. People in India are more interested in knowin abt the cricket team rather than about the innumerable heroes who man our borders day-in and day-out. Has anyone pondered over the objectivity of Major Vinay's parents remaining life?Is the PM concerned? All states poured lavish cash rewards to the wealthy crickters. How much have they pledged this time to Major Vinay & his family. Its really shameful. There shd be mandatary military service in India so that people can relate to the pain and sufferings that comes with the service rather than shrug it off as someone else's problem.
