From this pov as well, apart from his dedication, Anil's effort is so remarkable. Hi Neha.. True..it is so disturbing. Imagine fighting, with your life at stake and a state of mind where you dont know if your children are well looked after. Hi Dilip.. you said it. the police force too encounters a similar dilemma. but lets face it they are open to bribes whenever possible. Am not rationalising nor codoning it merely pointing out that our Jawans have to manage with the minimum. Hi Amit..truly appreciate your attitude. Good for you.

I'm living in UK at the moment and have all my feelings for Our India Army from the bottom of my heart. But like many countries we the people we an India have to make changes and not keep looking towards gov. My solution is, 1. Set up a fund raising organization for the entire India army and not just for the one that lost their lives on duty. 2. Get it approved by gov or red cross so that people (Indians) abroad can trust this new organization. (since i am living outside India i have noticed that people find it hard to trust indians with money... so APPROVED will help a great deal) 3. Don't ask for money but just let the Indian all around the world and in India know that if they want they CAN now help Indian Army via this organization. I will be one of this people. Good luck :) Amit. Hi,

Im sure it worked on his decision to go to those border front areas.Its really a shame that they are paid so little! Imagine defending the country with your life and then getting paid enough to barely be alive.This is sacrifice. i would never be able to do this. Mr. Raina seems like a kashmiri from his surname.
