The entire regiment? Why?disband the regiment
The entire regiment? Why?disband the regiment
It would be very interesting to know the class composition of the unit. Disband that bloody unit and throw it in the dustbin of history.the commanding officer is relieved from the duty and case is opened against him against present and past irregularities. regiment 226 have problematic record as per media. new commanding officer is in place
The major could have been a bad hat but not all officers present...
- Soldier misbehaves with Major's wife.
- Major beats up the soldier then refuses him medical attention.
- Commanding officer comes, feels the mood, and publicly scolds the Major.
- Major and his colleagues beat up the commanding officer.
- Soldiers join in and beat the Major and his colleagues.
I can see where all this started from.
I agree with Bhadra, the only person fit for the army in this entire saga is the Major who beat up so many people for his wife. I say well done.
Totally agree .. Army is not a Group of Sociophiles ...disband the regiment
In democracy everything should come in open to general public. There is a fine line between Democracy and Autocratic Protected/Closed State. Media is this fine line.The media shouldn't report such incidents.Follow Pak model here.
I would agree with you had this been some rag tag African militia!

Only one name has appeared ... Sepoy Suman Ghosh....also any clue of the state composition of the soldiers...?
If it was indeed a "Sahayak", than that sounds more plausible.A highly placed source at 14 Corps Headquarters told The Hindu that the officer's wife complained that Ghosh walked into her room without knocking while she was having a shower.
If this is not mutiny than what is this:This is not a mutiny per se, because the soldiers were not disloyal to the country, but to their leaders who lacked leadership qualities.
Collective insubordination against erring officers? Who knows what happened for real? The soldiers did not refuse to fight.If this is not mutiny than what is this:
Fearing attack by other Army units, some men barricaded themselves inside the quarter-guard, housing the armoury, while others marched into the town shouting Bharat Mata ki Jai ["Long Live India"]. Major Sharma was captured and beaten; the men moved him to hospital thereafter.
and this :
The sahayak, witnesses told The Hindu, was dragged into the Beacon ground near the range, and beaten up. Major Ankur Tewari, Major Kapil Malik, Major Thomas Verghese, Major A.D. Kanade and Major Sharma himself joined in the beating, documents seen by The Hindu say
Collective insubordination is mutiny.....
Read Army Act..Collective insubordination against erring officers? Who knows what happened for real? The soldiers did not refuse to fight.
Going by your definition, if a unit is asked to retreat, and the unit refuses and decides to fight till death, would you still call it a mutiny? It's not as if the soldiers were betraying their country. They were standing up for a fellow comrade.
