Re: [IAC#RG] POST PATHANKHOT ITS TIME FOR MANOHAR PARRIKAR TO HANG HIS BOOTS

I agree entirely with Mr.Mathai Mathews, and have wondered during the Pathankot "episode" why this was not done. Was there a specific order forbidding the use of big guns?

We need decisiive leadership and bold policy framework with plenty of freedom for commaander on the spot to take instant action- major mathews (retd)

Dear Mr Rodrigues,
I agree with your views on Mr Parikkar mostly except the penultimate para where you have mentioned about his soiled boots. Sorry, he doesn't have boots, only chappals. He even reviews parades in his chappals. A disgrace to the always well turned out members of any defence outfit. It is high time Mr Modi eases him out.

Re: [IAC#RG] POST PATHANKHOT ITS TIME FOR MANOHAR PARRIKAR TO HANG HIS BOOTS

Its ridiculous to talk about the requirement of a clean defence minister..It means that rest of the portfoilio ministers continue to make money making Indian public fool.

Corruption has got imbedded so much in our lives when I wpuld not be surprised that this Nation will be sold off to IS just for the sake of money and we  would be made slave to them.

You are giving license to all the poiliticians to make money then why shouldnot Army officials make money and sale the security of our Nation to our enemies.

I am ashamed to be born in Inida amongst corrupted Poiliticians and Bureaucreates.

Mr. Rodrigue's comments about Mr. Parrikar are highly subjective. It is more to do with Goa,s politics than his role as defence Minister.

The P.M must have taken into account the clean image that he has enjoyed in addition to his young age and being an IITIAN while appointing him as the defence Minister. So far he     is not involved in any scam as the defence Minister, inspite of his Ministry being notorious for shady deals.

His appointment came as a fresh airafter Congress Anthony's tenure of dismal performance.

If the Prime Minister did not take him along to france or any other country it is no reflection on Mr. Parrikar. On the contrary it shows full faith that he will take care of any untowards incident in his absence. Have the Heads of States from Russia, China,Japan and UK brought their defene Ministets when they visited India. Even the Prime Minister has not been taking the External affairs Minister with him on his tours.

First of all, why this incident at Pathankot is being blown out of proportion? It is over and done with. The Army and the Airforce must have learnt their lesson. Perhaps Mr. Parrikar should have not got himself involbed in the press briefing and should have left it to the operational heads. Besides This incident is neither the first one or will be the last one in so far as the terrorists are concerned.

It is very funny that some people are questing him on his dress code.But they did not question Chidamberam on his native dress He is the civilian head of the Ministry of defence and not a man of uniform.

Incidentally a few days back i saw his photo graph along with H. Rathore's on social media travelling in a train from Mumbai to Jaipur just like any other ordinary passenger. No Airs of a VIP. That is Parrikar for you as a man and a Minister!

Re: [IAC#RG] GoI's 'Safar' data exposes AAP's #ODD-EVEN flop show

Dear Shanti Bhushan ji

1) They will not allow the "people" to access your statements.
Already AAP-Govt is regularly giving full page advts to all newspapers
like HT, ToI etc,to compromise their editorial independence. Their
organisations "dominate" Facebook and half the media/TV channels are
directly in the control of their godfathers. They use professional
SocialMedia people to run their campaign - unlike your amateurs.

2) They have taken long term steps to protect themselves in judiciary
at all levels (starting from MLA selections all the way to co-opting
senior advocates/SGs like Harish Salve, Indira Jaisingh, Gopal
Subramaniam etc to represent them at their enhanced legal fees.

3) AAP has understood the science of using public money, like it is
going out of fashion, to achieve its ends.What can your poor
jhola-wallah brigades do against this ?

Re: [IAC#RG] POST PATHANKHOT ITS TIME FOR MANOHAR PARRIKAR TO HANG HIS BOOTS

9/1/16

DearSir,
 Your post on Mod-speaks of the bias of Mr. Nehru against Armed forces as well as of the Senior civil servants since independence. These facts are all known, yet the Armed forces have risen to the occasion in preventing forcible  takeover of J&K or liberating of Bangladesh .
Even during 1962 war with China it was the political leadership to be blamed and not Armed forces except the chosen General.
Problem in DRDO are also known and they have not delivered what was expected of them. But last year the P.M devoted quite some time, making some changes at the top and emphasising that they have to deliver results in a time bound manner.Perhaps there is a need for better coordination between the Min. of Defence, Senior scientists at DRDO and the Armed forces. Here the Defence Minister certainly has a role to play and I do not know if Mr. Parrikar giving enough attention, although I feel with his engineering background he can improve working of DRDO.
The other post relating to shifting the Defence Exhibition from Pragati Maidan to Goa is wrong both on the ground that it is a break from past
and is being done by the Defence Minister to his home State. But seriously do you support that Mr. Parrikar should be replaced by the P.M on the Pathankot incident?

Mr. Rodrigue's comments about Mr. Parrikar are highly subjective. It is more to do with Goa,s politics than his role as defence Minister.

The P.M must have taken into account the clean image that he has enjoyed in addition to his young age and being an IITIAN while appointing him as the defence Minister. So far he     is not involved in any scam as the defence Minister, inspite of his Ministry being notorious for shady deals.

His appointment came as a fresh airafter Congress Anthony's tenure of dismal performance.

If the Prime Minister did not take him along to france or any other country it is no reflection on Mr. Parrikar. On the contrary it shows full faith that he will take care of any untowards incident in his absence. Have the Heads of States from Russia, China,Japan and UK brought their defene Ministets when they visited India. Even the Prime Minister has not been taking the External affairs Minister with him on his tours.

First of all, why this incident at Pathankot is being blown out of proportion? It is over and done with. The Army and the Airforce must have learnt their lesson. Perhaps Mr. Parrikar should have not got himself involbed in the press briefing and should have left it to the operational heads. Besides This incident is neither the first one or will be the last one in so far as the terrorists are concerned.

It is very funny that some people are questing him on his dress code.But they did not question Chidamberam on his native dress He is the civilian head of the Ministry of defence and not a man of uniform.

Incidentally a few days back i saw his photo graph along with H. Rathore's on social media travelling in a train from Mumbai to Jaipur just like any other ordinary passenger. No Airs of a VIP. That is Parrikar for you as a man and a Minister!

The sordid happenings at Pathankhot over the last few days should be an eye opener.  India desperately needs a full time, dedicated and competent Defence Minister. The current incumbent who also merrily doubles up as the de- facto Chief Minister of Goa over the weekends has failed to ably lead the defence forces. His priority has been to keep himself embroiled in Goa's petty municipal and panchayat politics. Manohar Parrikar relishes in inaugurating roads, culverts, all and sundry while lowering the esteem and honor the very high position of Defence Minister entails.  

Not long ago while Narendra Modi was inking the Rafale fighter jet deal in France his Defence Minister was inaugurating a mobile fish stall in Goa.  When Modi went to Russia to sign the chopper deal, Manohar Parrikar was nowhere in sight. Probably, Modi chose to leave his Defence minister behind, lest he commits a gaffe.

After his disastrous three year tenure as Chief Minister of Goa, the awfully ego puffed Manohar Parrikar has ended up over the last year a catastrophe as Defence Minister of India. He has become a laughing stock and object of ridicule. It is high time Narendra Modi sees the writing on the wall and realises that India frantically needs a sincere, honest, competent and level headed Defence Minister.

The complete incorrect picture about Pathankhot that was sought to be given, that all operations were over, within a couple of hours, with some BJP MPs, going public in praising the Government, only to be exposed as falsehoods. The immature handling of the entire operation and the selective press leaks, still could not heal the damage done by the incompetent Defence Minister. For Manohar Parrikar, now to come out and claim that there were "some gaps" is nothing but confirming that the gap is caused due to his absence from Delhi on account of his regular hobnobbing in Goa.

Mere fact that Manohar Parrikar supported Narendra Modi for his anointing as Leader and future PM, ought not to have allowed Modi to lose his balance with this vital appointment. The position as Defence Minister is surely, not a Chairmanship of a Corporation. Nor is it for someone who seeks to play the role of a cowboy.

Manohar Parrikar gave us all those tall sermons on Zero tolerance to Corruption, but the rampant corruption which has ebbed to the peak is there for all to see. It is time for him to gracefully pack off and hang up his very soiled boots.

In the words of Abraham Lincoln 'You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time"
