if military people are behind money and luxuries, they will not be able to fight a real war. In war, their main aim will be to escape from danger rather than fight the enemy.

@Mr.murthy please ask Govt. To make Military Service Compusory as in America!If any american does not join military serivcs as stipulated by constituion he is sent to jail!Even Mohhamad ali the great Boxer was sent to jail as he refused to go virtnam war ! I request again to you mr. murthy make Military service compulsory!Why only few have to serve Military!I assur there are billions who want to ready and join the Military and even will not ask for pay rise!And they will fight tiull death and kill the enemy !Those who think that they are in Military doing favours to Indians then they are not required to serve in the Army!Those who want to serve the Mother land joined the Army!Your words that you are doing favours to indians is highly objectionable !Let Military service be made Compulsory then threer will be no probelm of any controversy of monetary considerations!It is luck and favour by the Mother land that those in Army has been given!If they think as you that you are doing Favours to Indians then please leave the army!And let Military service be made Compulsory as in America!

Those protesting against the dismal pay in the Armed Forces are not claiming that they are doing any favour or not. What they are demanding is an action to correct their dismal pay scales. And what is your problem if they protest for their long deserved demands!!

Mr. Mahabodhi, It seems u never served the armed forces.I belong to that catogary, of officers who joined the army immediately after china war,after passing Engineering degree.At that time we were really driven by patriatism. That does not mean that govt should not pay usadequately.While all army's officers of other countries are enjoing free entitled rations it is not so with Indian Army till 83. To live a officers life we used to give advanced cheques to the unit bania canteen at adiscount and run the family life.In war any casuality takes place the Govt Used to pay 6 months pay and then half pay for another 6 months to the berieved family and say a comfortable good bye.What for we served then if it is not forthe patriatism.Anyone who found taking bribes in Army is Court-marshalled,sent home.Leave alone Civilion officers, how many clerks were dismissed.They get suspended and come back again to serve.In Armed forces even one Chief of Naval Staff was sent home because he had a show down with the defence Secretary.The secretary was shifted to another Ministry.Leave fighting a war you canot sustain regorous traing an officer under goes.An officers training is much more tougher than a jawan.An officer alway leads his troops inthe war.In civil the only ting that keeps officer and his staff together is Corruption and the share he gets.The officer casualities in war are more in indian Army compared to any other Aarmies of world.so watch u r words before u comment
