it is very ironic that people are opting for military rule. I cleared my written NDA and went for an interview to Deharadun where I failed my PABT ( once in a lifetime in India tobecome an Air Force Pilot, the only other way to become an Air force pilot is through NCC C certificate). We had a discussion round where the topic was, should India have mandatory service in the armed forces till a certain age. I was all pro for it, but realized that it was against the democratic constitution that the Armed forces are supposed to protect. We should be proud of our Armed forces that they adhere to the constitution. Hats off to all those who serve the nation with loyalty integrity and faith regardless of their cultural or religious background. Jai Hind
