Ray Sir,
Thank you for your explanation. It makes it all the more understandable than the earlier response I got.
Regarding Tovarish, I was refering to the Soviet Army and the transition from the Imperial Tsarist traditions to Soviet Traditions, whence came my reference to the purges of Stalin.
I am no stranger to fragging. It happens in the Russian Army, probably happened in the Soviet Army, and also happens in IITs. That, however, does not take away anything from the point I was trying to make. Keep everyone equal. Yes, hierarchy may exist, but only to that extent that it is required. Not an inch beyond. Therefore, in my humble opinion, this batman system must be laid to rest in the annals of history, and make things more egalitarian.
Let us agree to disagree on this.
