OROP: OROP OUR (BATTLE OF) PLASSEY !!!!‏ OR सुग्रीव भेदी लंका गिराय

 OROP OUR (BATTLE OF) PLASSEY !!!! ‏

                                               OR

                सुग्रीव  भेदी  लंका गिराय 


Adjectives like treason, treachery, betrayal, disloyalty, perfidy, 'dhoka' and the closest and most comprehensible to a fauji 'thoka' (Yes we have been 'thokoed' by our Comrades and Govt) - Well all this and more by a bunch  famously replicating -  Judas( betrayed Jesus) , Cassius&Brutus (both betrayed Julius Ceaser), Guy Fawkes(turned Catholic and tried to blow up a Protestant  Britian's Parliament), Benedict Arnold(American turned traitor, when not given his due for Battles won  in the Civil War), Raja Jai Chand(let down Prithviraj Chauhan), Mir Jaffar ( Plassey fame), Sambhaji(Shivaji's eldest son  not annointed King by Shivaji, joined Mughals,only to return after 2 years), Ganoji Shirke(Sambhaji's brother-in -law), Gen Labh Singh (1st Anglo-Sikh War) and of course the BJP list(Nehru, Swami Agnivesh, Romila Thapar, Digvijay Singh, Shashi Tharoor, Rajender Sacchar, Mani Shanker Aiyar, Lalu Yadav,, Arundhati Roy, Rajdeep Sardesai, etc: to quote  Dr Babu Suseelan).

That said, I wonder what the motivation of the 'Gang of Four' Lt Gen Raj Kadyan, Lt Gen Balbir S Yadav, Brig Kartar Singh(known him, I'd rate him an excellent human being and extremely helpful) and Col Nain was, to have tried, to high-jack and subvert an absolutely genuine demand of OROP. I know human greed can be triggered for personal ambitions for varied  reasons like: political power, money, a perceived injustice done or not getting their due, feeling of a superiority complex, or just plain megalomania. For one or  more reasons. (Long list, but  short really as I lack the necessary qualifications to do a psychological analysis and pass judgement). Issue is the OROP demand does not affect both the Generals, so if they did not think it was right, they should have stayed neutral. I know a few who do not believe in the means employed but support the demand and have stayed neutral.



The conduct of the 'Gang of Four' on Kargil 'Vijay Divas' at Jantar Mantar on 26 July 15, would have made FM Sir Phillip Chetwode squirm (in his grave ofcourse),  of the  deliberate attempt to  create a rift amongst the Officers/JCO's/ NCO's and our stoic brave soldiers under the United Front  of Ex Servicemen(UFESM) banner, spearheaded by Maj Gen Satbir Singh, Gp Capt Gandhi and others, by putting up a separate stage and seating(all new) for 2000 people (must have cost a pile - where was the money from?? I will leave the guessing to you) to hijack Anna Hazare. They sought to project themselves as the real UFESM, their ploy was  exposed when Anna Hazare realised he had been commandeered to the wrong venue  and decided to walk across to the one organised by Gen Satbir after a while. Both Gen Balbir Singh and Gen Kadian, scooted  and left a bumbling Brig Kartar (I have got Anna Hazare here as promised) and Col Nain to shovel the shit and face the music. Brig Kartar's attempt to nuzzle upto Anna and perch himself on the stage met with  angry protests and he thought it wiser to abandon his foray. I must commend  Gen Satbir Singh's conduct right through the entire proceedings, including when the other party before the arrival of Anna Hazare, resorted to cheap and unsoldierly gimmickry of turning on blaring music to drown out the proceedings this end. Gen Satbir stuck to the script of OROP and no bad mouthing. Great restrain.  Well done Sir.!!!





The cause has to be seen in its larger context of, the ESM and widows,in terms of dignity, living with honour, subsistence, survival and impact on the immediate family, ability to raise children with the necessary educational skills, social and moral standing in the  community. This is what impinges on morale and  motivation, whether to send the son to join the services or give it a pass. Statistics indicate anyone with the qualifications and opportunity opts out. I am not going to repeat the issue of pay fixations, commencing 1973 and the injustices and disparities created after Third Pay Commission. Suffice to say, the Govt decided to cut off a very vital limb of the national bulwark, disinheriting virtually a very proud and tradition bound organisation, of its proud officer cadre and men (partially), which over the past few  years is surviving on band aid  dressing, affecting both the human  factor and the war fighting capabilities in terms of morale,equipment and weaponry.





The  policies manipulated and presented to their Political Masters by a jaded Bureaucracy, to inure their unquestioned authority in a power structure, protected by a shield of unaccountability, actually entails the manipulation a largely disinterested Politician. He  has neither the time, nor the attention span or interest to understand the time consuming but serious needs of national defence and security, except superficially as it does not impact his vote bank. This treachery has  affected  especially the officer intake, where we had second, third and fourth generation people joining  out of tradition and loyalty to the Regiment/unit or for the traditions of discipline, honour, adventure(like me) with a misplaced understanding of valour and bravery in battle(we were only 14 plus years old and made this decision then, perhaps on introspection, some later concluded, not the right one). One of the reasons a lot of young people are wanting out very early. I am not talking of Short Service Commissioned Officers.




 
The burning question is why did the 'Gang of Four" indulge in this devious treachery, selling themselves out to the current Govt. All involved have served the Army, I am sure for 30 to 40 years, and they have stabbed the very men and their subordinate comrade-in- arms, in the back, by virtue of whom they attained their rank. They have sullied, through subterfuge and dishonoured the fine traditions of soldiering. They are turning the cold steel blade in an assisted hara-kiri, in which only the assistants(them) seem to be in a hurry to get over and done with the killing, so they don't have too long to answer to their tormented conscience (???) for  their treacherous act. Was the all consuming  fire in their belly  of personal ambition so intense that they rather,  that their deserving comrades  burnt to cinders, and the issue was buried once and for all, and the Judas(s) were heaped with political and other forms of gratitude, by a relieved  Govt.





But they still have a conscience to live with. I know the service gave us all one, and tied it in a Gordian knot with honour (of self, to unit, and the uniform), service(to the men, unit and Nation) and welfare of our men and burned it into our DNA. What went wrong with the 'Gang of Four"???? What pushed or compelled them to break the code of conduct of an Officer and a Gentleman. Did the Honour code fail them or did they fail the cause of their command?????





 The  PM had promised the implementation of OROP in his pre-election  Ex- Servicemen Rally in Rewari, in the presence Of Ex-COAS Gen V K Singh. Not only that, when addressing the troops at Siachen on a visit, told them OROP had been granted. Even going so far as to say if the Atal Vajyapai Govt had been reelected the OROP issue would have been settled then and not come up. So why the change of heart and the blurring of issues, like varied definitions of OROP. The plain truth is like all politicians, PM is also in election mode, where he needs to promise the 'all the gold Fort Knox', ( which he knows he has no access to) to buy votes. Money is limited. Soldiers don't count much for votes. Above all human memory is short, is how the PM and his coterie see it. They think they will wear out the ESM. The story going around in Amritsar I believe is, that Arun Jaitely feels the Fauji's turned the the cold steel blade in his gut decapitating him, by electing Capt Amarinder Singh. The man should realise, oratory in Parliament and fighting big money cases in the cool environs of the Supreme Court or running the Delhi Cricket Association, does not give you a mass following. So how can you fault the fauji who saw Jaitely in that mode and as a disrupter of Parliament in Rajya Sabha. 





An issue that has been rankling me is,  as to why Gen V K Singh and Col R S Rathore both Ministers in Govt, did not come to the commencement of the Relay Hunger Strike (RHS) on 14 June, to have just showed their solidarity with the cause and pointed out, that by virtue of their position in Govt, they could not actively support the demand, and given their Best Wishes.  I think it would have had a massive impact on the cause.





The unstinting contribution by their  presence, of two very senior citizens, both wheel chair bound, Mrs.Balbir Singh  (95 years) widow of late Col Balbir Singh of the GRENADIERS and CO of Col Inderjit Singh,  (the initiator of OROP) and  Mrs.Sujatha, daughter of late Gen Umrao Singh, who is there daily and is here from the US for 3 months, specifically to support the RHS and in case it is prolonged she will be relieved by her Mother, currently in the USA. That is the steel soldiers and their kin are made from and their spirit and their will cannot be destroyed till justice is given. But above all the determination of Maj Gen Satbir Singh and his team and the large No of our ESM who sit there everyday uncomplainingly, living in Hope of Justice, for their genuine right. A shame on the Govt, that the soldier is out on the street demanding his Right.





So 'Brave hearts',  where to you figure your chances are  with the OROP-- with a bruised and seething FM,  a marauding BJP in election mode lead by NaMo out to conquer India over the next 3 years and treachery of 'The Gang of Four' So is it a case of Finance availability or Just plain ego ??!!     After all this, the charade is nothing short of treachery, -- we might have to prolong our wait-   but 'Get we will our Right'.. '



Jai HO

Dear Veterans,

This is in response to a mail from Cdr Pathak and Wg Cdr C K Sharma that Lt Gen B S Yadav and Brig Kartar Singh have left UFESM.

Time has come to first sort out internal issues of UFESM before the OROP.

    देखिए  जनाब  AIM (इरादा ) ही भुल  गए  और अपनी ही  व्रेटलिंग (WRESTLING) में  ही उलझ  गए।  इनका इरादा 
  
   

UFESM was created after various bodies which got together at the Constitution Club meeting on 06 Jun 15. Purpose to coordinate OROP effort.

 IESL agreed to whole hearted support to the joint effort. ( नो बिग टेक ,रिजल्ट्स टिल डेट  NIL )

 1.  WHAT IS IESL. Indian Ex-Services League was formed by amalgamation of All India Ex-Services Federation and the Indian Ex-Services Association, headed respectively by Late Field Marshal K M Cariappa OBE and Late K S Thimayya DSO. The league was registered under Societies Registration Act of 1860 (Punjab amendment) Act 1957 as extended to the Union Territory of Delhi vide letter No 52495 of 1964-65.
Indian Ex-Services League is recognized by the Govt. of India vide letter No2(2) RECGN/IESL/KSB/A2000 dt 04 Jan 2001 as the Apex body of ESM and this Apex status has also been recorded in a resolution of the 7th Lok Sabha on 20 April 1982. 

 
The first and the second Presidents were Late Gen K S Thimayya DSO and Late Field Marshal K M Cariappa OBE. The President of Indian is the Grand Patron-in-Chief of IESL. The Defence Minister is the Patron-in-Chief, and three service Chief's are Patrons. The present membership of IESL is approximately 4 lakhs.

 
2.  WHAT IS THE LAXMAN REKHA THAT IS BEING TALKED ABOUT. To the uninformed this is to convey that IESL is a Govt body and will not take any action that will displease the Govt. Readers please judge for yourself what action of IESL has been seen in towing the govt line.

 It was IESM under MG Satbir who gave a call to support BJP in the last elections. Who are the govt stooges today? Who goes to Gen V K Singh to arrange meetings with RM. It Is Hon' Satbir Singh.

Who leads the rally in front of Bhatinda Military Station. It is IESL. PLEASE JUDGE FROM THIS WHO IS GOVT KA CHAMCHA. Not only ESM, even the serving voters of Amritsar constituency supported Capt Amarinder Singh in his fight against Mr Jetley. Why is Gen V K Singh not called to support OROP struggle. It is IESM who does not want this because it will hurt the Govt.

 Have enough ammo to blast your theory of LAXMAN REKHA. Everyone knows who wanted BJP ticket/Rajya Sabha nomination from the IESM leadership and who will quietly slip away even if offered so now. 

 
3.  IT'S ALL ABOUT MONEY HONEY. The mistake made by all ESM bodies coming under UFESM was not to open a new account for subscription after formation of UFESM. All money, cheques and cash is in the hands of IESM. Now the 30 odd bodies are  asking IESM to make the accounts transparent. Till a few days back the collection was over Rs 60 lacs and it was told that Rs 40 lacs have been spent. Rs 40 lacs spent in about 45 days when so much of assistance is coming from volunteers for the RHS. Since all bodies are very small compared to IESL they are asking Lt Gen B S Yadav to seek details of accounts from IESM.

IESM HAVE REFUSED TO BRING ABOUT TRANSPARENCY IN ACCOUNTS WHICH IS WHAT EVERY ONE IS DEMANDING. HENCE THEY FEEL BY TARGETTING LT GEN YADAV AND BRIG KARTAR THEY CAN SILENCE/WIN OVER OTHERS. 

 
WE WILL NOW LEAD THE DEMAND TO MAKE ACCOUNTS TRANSPARENT. VETERANS SHOULD KNOW THAT APART FROM OFFICERS, JCOS/OR HAVE ALSO SENT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM ALL OVER. IESM HIERARCHY SPENDS MONEY ON THEMSELVES WHEREAS JCOS/OR TRAVEL AND STAY ON OWN EXPENSES. THIS IS WHAT THEY LEARNT FROM LONG YEARS IN SERVICE.

 
4. INTERNET WARRIORS. Is there any doubt that the IESM  are the best internet and media warriors. Else why would they say Lt Gen Yadav and Brig Kartar have left UFESM but the IESL from Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and UP are with UFESM. This because if not for JCOs/OR who will sit on RHS. And they have to come from these states only. Don't try to be too clever Pathak and Sharma. 

 
5. INFIGHTING IN IESM. Whilst Cdr Pathak and WC Sharma are talking of internet warriors and some being persona non grata, can they tell us what happened when Signalman Sheoran defeated their officer hierarchy in the elections for President/Chairman. The world should know that the humiliated leaders of todays IESM have not reconciled to this and are fighting battles in the court. IESM thereafter held elections in far away Pune where JCOs/OR could not travel whereas officers went by air to keep their chairs intact. We DONT have this in IESL. We have JCOs/NCO as State Presidents and Dist Presidents.  

 
5. HUNGER STRIKE. This was Gandhi's 'gift' to us. You know why? It was easier for the British Govt to handle someone like Gandhi on hunger strikes than to tackle the likes of Bhagat Singh, Netaji Subhash Chander Bose and their brave compatriots. Support Gandhi and eliminate Bhagat Singh and Netaji. Our politicians have learnt from them. Hunger Strikes, which was the idea of MG Satbir and his IESM was opposed by a majority in  the Jun 06 meeting. IESM knew that their RHS would not last for even a week without support from other organisations. So RHS support from JCOs/OR in which IESL of neighbouring states has been in the forefront and money from officers made a win-win situation for IESM. Now they are scared to make the accounts transparent and fear if they dont keep other ESM organisations, especially IESL from neighbouring states with them, their RHS will come to an end. You are the traitors who have failed officers and men alike. You know in Delhi every thing is available with money. No one sees the I Cards of ESM in RHS. You can hire people from the money you have collected and show them as ESM on RHS. You will come down to this when you will be exposed. This has just started.

 
You know what is written in Gurbani regarding fasting and suicides. 
" Chade Ann Kare Pakhand, Na suhagan na uh rand " - Fasting is a drama, a person on fast is neither married nor widow/widower.
" Atamghati Jagat Kasai" - A person who commits suicide is a butcher of the world. 

 
FIRING NOW : OROP ALREADY ACHIEVED. The hierarchy of IESM by collecting over Rs 60 lacs (thats what they say, God knows what is the truth) and showing a fictitious expense of Rs 40 lacs have already got in 45 days what they would have got in the balance of their life time month after month with OROP.  (ONE BIRD IN HAND IS BETTER THAN TWO IN THE BUSH  बट  जनाब अभी तक तो  एक भी नही )

 
APPEAL TO ALL VETERANS.
Please seek the account details and demand that the funds be put under joint supervision of UFSEM which IESM is not allowing.Please expose the IESM doings on all forms of social media.

 
Brig Inder Mohan Singh (Retd)
President IESL Punjab
