Indian Defence Forces and their rights

It is indeed pity that the forces who are the backbone of our country and sacrifice themselves for the safety and security of civilians have to protest for their rights. And the people sitting at the helm of affairs in north and south block treat them as their paid body guards or security person sitting at the gate of their bunglows. This is all because India is a democracy and forces in this country are patient and disciplined. Forces always believe that their interest will be looked after well by their aka in Delhi. But I think somewhere they have gone wrong and feel cheated. Forces should atleast once show their power and caution the burocracy and the politicians not to take them for granted.

It is high time the Government take note of the genuine demands of the forces and take them into confidence before deciding their fate. Babus sitting in bunglows cannot dictate terms and take decisions in respect of the forces who are responsible for the sefety and security of our nation.
