A330s for refuellers - cancelled due to 'funds'

Il-76 engine upgrade - delayed as no 'funds'

Upgrade of critical Airfields - 03 years delayed already - no funds

Perimeter walls and layered fencing of certain SFC units - not constructed as no funds (can you believe that?)

SSNs - delayed

LPDs - delayed

Aircraft Carrier - delayed and cancelled

MCCS - delayed and partially rolled out\

TAC C3I augmentation - Delayed

OFC grid to augment communication in forwards zones - delayed by more than 02 years

Construction of reinforced defences - no funds

Don't even get me started on the communications of Army alone :D

The actual work is selectively done and enthusiastically promoted
Delayed because they are obviously complex projects with no prior experience in building them or do you see current GOI during its duration since 2014 neglecting defence needs without a reason or cause?

I think you should add a bit more clarity as most of your quotes are too generic and statementish and sometimes on contrary to general understanding, if you are from force then little bit of detail would be helpful. You don't have to but then you can if you choose to....

Doval walking out of NSA SCO meet will:
1. Force Russia to recalibrate the extent of its leverage over India
2. Badly shake China's confidence in Russia's ability to keep India away from an alliance or quasi alliance with US. Thus, reducing atleast by a little amount Russian leverage over China.

Thats some dimag ka Bho**da for China and Russia to handle in a day..

It all depends on Wuhan Bat shit virus , if the pandemic keeps moving up and killing more people who ever comes to White house will have to sit on hot seat when it comes to china . Because economically that means USA is screwed royally by Wuhan virus .

Guys will Biden be more anti China or Trump if he is re-elected?

The US parties have united against China since they don’t want China’s internal politics to be played out on the global stage ever again

That is a good idea. A truck full of such defective items should be taken to border Personnel Meetings and displayed outside the Chinese hut. The Indian commander then presents those to the Chinese commander and the whole time should be spent in shaming the Chinese rather than listening to their useless arguments of LAC.

I only remember those days when HMT watch on the wrist was a big danger as the Chinese would snatch that by all means and give anything in exchange .... usually his greatcoat.
Chinese ll be real confused . Their brain ll nt work on this kind of offensive as no reference ll be found in sun tzu instructions .

Air Force Fighter Jets carry out Patrolling in Bufliaz area in Poonch district..This patrolling by fighter jets is significant in wake of Ongoing tension on both LAC and LOC

Currently heavy cross border shelling is going on at many places along the LoC while IAF jets r roaring in the sky of UT J&K & Ladakh. It may b attempt by PakArmy to divert attention of IA b4 misadventure by PLA along LAC. Indian armed forces are alert and ready to defeat both.

yup.. their sense of being junagarh part of porkland comes from the fact that than maharaja of junagarh fled to pakistan with his wife's leaving his young wife and kid on tarmac ..to seek help from porkis who never helped the than ruler of junagarh...ultimately guy died in peanutry in lahore and his descendants still roam around the streets taking the title on their heads..

Source - biography of V P menon .
You failed to mention that Barat of Dogs which he took with him.. Bhtto family is said to have survived as a rich family that got from the gold of Junagarh as Bhutto's father was the accountant and minister of Nawab of Junagarh..

Bhar Bhar ke le gaye sale... No wonder they opened the paints of Bhutto before hanging him. Karma runs down generations..

Design and/or research does not occur in SL, mostly Japan, Euro and US/Canada and Russia. Recently Chinese brands are making inroads into alpine stuff and is directly connected to military.

In most of the hard field areas like present-day Ladakh, there is no scope for an officer to cook and eat separately. He lives and eats with the troops. The scale of elective or in lieu items is so less that it is sometimes not possible to issue an item for two officers- say one small coffee pouch for two months which once opened will go bad in two days.

An officer has to accept the culture and habits of his troops. A Gorks officer with Jat troops is unlikely to get rice so he is Roti eater. A Sikh officer with Gorkha troops is a rice eater - rice there times a day. A Muslim officer with Gurkha troops may become a pork eater.

People must know our troops spend a sizable amount for their upkeep. A boy from Haryana or UP keeps a tin of Ghee brought from hi home, A Sardar from Punjab will spend quite a lot for his extra chicken or mutton.... a Gorkha can not survive without his daily chicken. All troops spend money on supplements like Achar and Chutneys, extra spices or extra chilies on preparing good rasam, idli or Dhosa.

A detachment of tank crew or BMP stick or crew when detached cook themselves and enjoy whatever they can buy and officer with them is in line with them..

High altitude in particular is infamous for loss of appetite, loss of taste, constipation and gastric which is accelerated by tinned and preserved food. So everyone is given pickle, Jam, dry fruits etc to maintain appetite and taste without distinction.

Yes item in liu or alternate, choices such as semolina, sago, Dalia, ham, bacon, salami , etc are demanded as in Liu item in peace stations where ten-fifteen officers stay at one place, eat-in officers mess, and can afford to cook separately... That is to cater for taste and it has no financial implications as items are provided in liue. An officer spends minimum three - four thousand per month on messing in spite of free rations. Whereas if ten paise is taken from a jawan in the name of messing that CO will be sealed forever. There are Regiments and battalions who spend their regimental money on improving food standards for Jawans.

Our Pappu wants our Jawans to eat bread, pork, and beef... ?? Horrible..

excellent write up.

somebody please slap it on Pappu's face.

Right sir. thanks for adding these. I was just looking at wider points.

Funnily- the Nawab was in so much hurry that he left his youngest wife on tarmac. Apparently, she too forget her young new born in mahal....
