What a horrendous comment......The only people who do not pledge allegiance to the Indian constitution are the anti state people,insurgents and separatists. You have basically insulted thousands of servicemen who sacrificed or put their lives in crossfire.

Very sad to read this news. May lord give strength to his family.

How am i supposed to know which General and which colonel had initially joined the army as a soldier ? I am not an Army guy. Maybe you should file a RTI with MOD to know the exact composition within the Army. Nobody discusses these things inside the Army environment and it does not come out...

This is preposterous.Conflict in Nagaland is not seen by any party as a conflict between Hindus and Christians. North East insurgency is primarily ethnic in nature.Religion plays a very secondary role. Infact few years ago the conflict centered around Nagas and Kukis,both of whom are christians.

Not just military hospital in Wellington but all Military Hospitals and ECHS Centers. Few years ago, i went for dental filling .What i saw looked like equipments from 1960's.The filling job was so poorly done that resin broke off within 2 days.I did the same in a private clinic,it stayed for 2...
