Had Pakistan emulated the Indian Army, Its army would have been plagued with ageing equipment, rampant corruption & lac of competent officers to lead it.
This is not to cast aspersions on the bravery of the Indian soldiers who have proved time & again that they are among the best in the world, ever ready to make the biggest sacrifice for our motherland.
My heart weeps when I see the videos of the martyrs' families struggling to make the ends meet. The army gives a martyr's family less than what an IT professional earns in a year.
I pray to the Indian government do something towards making their life less miserable. We can start with giving them 4 times the salary they are getting now. After all, a soldier's contribution cannot be inferior to the contributions of IT professionals & Bankers for our country.
We can do our jobs, businesses & studies only because they protect us.
