The number of soldiers killed in each of the encounters is something that need to be given thought. The ratio is absolutely meaningless calling ourselves one of the largest armies in the world (after China & US). The poor soldiers are ill-equipped as against the militants that are armed with sophisticated weapons and are overpowered.... It is time India enter into PoK and destroy the terror houses and be proactive and send a strong signal across the border. With the summer that just passed through, we are not sure how many militants have infiltrated into India.. The army & the Govt. of India need to take extreme precautionary measures. I wish the Defence Minister AK Antony would be holding an Indian Flag on some regained territory rather than a hard dash of Rum / Whisky in the next picture I see him in the newspapers.

Good suggestion but unfortunately doesnt go well with the modern phase of society.
My heartfelt tribute to the soldiers and their bereaved families. And condemn the parents of the killed terrorists why they gave birth to such animals.
Suggest Rediff to setup a fund in which money can be contributed by the readers and which would DIRECTLY go to the families of such patriotic soldiers.
