Former Army Chief General VK Singh Stands Vindicated: A Veteran’s Tribute |
||||

General V K Singh the former Army Chief who retired on May 31 2012 did nothing wrong in taking his age row case to the Supreme Court. The General was left with no options when all legitimate avenues open to him for redressal of his legitimate grievance, the doors were slammed in his face. When he found that the Supreme Court also skirted the issue as analysed by eminent analysts and as the General says that one of the Honourable Justices advised that the General should ‘blow with the wind’, the General directed his lawyer to withdraw the petition. General V K Singh despite the manufactured media calumny against him has left the Indian Army transformed with latest operational doctrines to meet India’s security threats, concerted and determined disciplinary action against Indian Army hierarchy officers who seemed to have acquired the disease of corruption from the politico-bureaucratic nexus of bending rules, and setting an example of courage of conviction against all politico-bureaucratic odds. More importantly the Indian Republic stands sensitised by General V K Singh on the lack of Indian defence preparedness arising not from Indian Army drawbacks but from political and bureaucratic tardiness in not providing the Indian Army with the sinews of war-fighting. If China inflicts another 1962 debacle on India, the Indian Republic stands forewarned as to who would be responsible for such a debacle. |
