Dear Chakresh,
Albeit a little late, let me commend you for taking note of one of India’s bravest and loyal soldier.
At the same time I cannot but help urge you to do some reading about the man and his role in the India-Pakistan War. Your information is factually incorrect at places.
A case in point being -
“guiding a policy of involvement of army in political matters”
The Late Field Marshall, infact played no such role. The only role he played was that of soldier, and kept the Army separate from the Bureaucracy with neither meddling in each other’s affairs. Infact at one occasion when there were rumours about him planning a coup, he was called personally by Indira Gandhi to clarify on the issue to which he gave the legendary reply -
“Don’t you think I would be a worthy replacement for you, Madam Prime Minister? You have a long nose. So have I. But I don’t poke my nose into other people’s affairs.”
Otherwise, You’re doing a great job. Keep it up
Warm Regards,
Nikhil
