1. Forces --and especially Indian forces-- are not exactly PR firms. They have responsibility to protect Indian territory and not to convince Indian public. Thats politician's job. Pakistan is different, there politicians and forces are one and the same.
Is that why we dont have Republic day Parade, military exercises, air shows, adverts and even ADGPI? Come on now, nobody is asking to be ISPR style propagandist atleast not let world create doubts on your capabilities.
2.Current trend of asking forces to take part in political settings is something not liked by the forces and their leadership as well. Remember, VK singh didn't like forces to be referred as "Modi's Forces"? They are Indian forces and they don't want to be dragged in a political debate. Proving Modi has 56 inch chest is Modi's headache --And yes, it is this what it is coming to for most of Indians. Forces serve GoI, not Modi or BJP.
I fail to understand the relevance, anyway doesn't matter.
3. Its natural forces and its leadership will distance from political clutter. May be had this time been not election time, you would have seen the proof. Not now. Forces most likely don't want to be seen as supporting a particular party.
Last I heard the proof was provided to the government and also it is government's prerogative to ask for whatever is there and release it if they are comfortable, forces dont have the say in it, GoI and MoD take precedence over military arms. It wont be considered favouring any party, even if Govt. send troops in harms way for purely political advantage they are bound to follow it unless some court intervene which is rarity. So it is not related to elections.
Do you belive in God? Have you ever seen him? has he manifested himself to you or anyone?
Sir, I am not anti Modi or anti Army, infact opposite, I am worried about the reputation of both being tarnished internationally, its better to arrest it before the damage is done otherwise we can always wake up late.
The trouble is that we need proof for everything. Why? A lot (read clearly - a lot NOT all - dont flame me here) of us want it to win petty online duels with Pakistanis. Some of us have a nagging fear about actually losing to Pakistanis.
I am not on any other forum, dont even read them unless some exclusive is shared by someone mutual I read a bit and leave, I am not interested in winning online with delusional Pakistanis and I strongly believe Indian military will kick *censored* of Pakistan anytime, any day anywhere.
Let PAF release radar data from 27 Feb. I say IAF should not release anything.
Others are doing the bidding for PAF and the image they released of 4 missiles was rejected as a joke but if you think closely it was no joke, warhead was missing but seeker was there, even if the seeker was ejected some thousands of feet above the ground on unknown location and warhead struck the plane how were they able to find the seeker? It was not a large object but a small little few inches long seeker falling over nowhere with unknown speed how can you find it in such a vegetated mountainous terrane? This coupled with the video where Mig was shot first (atleast I think so) is not a small thing to be disregarded. Unless they forged the seeker and borrowed it from some other country(China).
If someone shows the pictures of seekers recovered during exercise then should remember the exercises are held over the known area, you dont know where you are going to have a dogfight. Pakistani posters are laughed off but we should not stop thinking critically and that does not make me anti national.
