State of Army

The developments of the past are hurting and painful for the old timers. There are many of us who have been joining the forces since generations. One may ask any one as to why did one join and prompt would come a reply for discipline / it is tradition / for serving the country / my great grand father / grand father / father are from forces and so is going to be my son.
Look at the state of affairs now the list of personnel who have shamed this noble, reliable and trust worthy institution to shame is growing by each passing day. The differences between offrs and soldiers reaching a show down was never heard of except during foreign rule.
The effect of growing degradation of values in and around us is slowly taking so far immune institutions into its folds. It is high time the custodians of this extremely efficient, dedicated, loyal, trained, disciplined force take some concrete steps to arrest this degradation of customs, ethos, values, etc which have been cultivated over years.
We are sure any half hear ted effort will dig a grave for this institution. There is an urgent need to carry out brain storming sessions, introspection, immediate addressing to the personal issues of troops etc. The sitations must be faces upfront and matters resolved rather than trying first aid approach.
