Salute to Martyrs of GalwanValley!

Sources Say 20 Indian Soldiers Martyred, More Than 40 Chinese Casualties

Twenty Indian soldiers including a Colonel were killed in a "violent face-off" on Monday night with Chinese troops at Galwan Valley in Ladakh, said government sources, in a massive escalation after weeks of tension at the border. India retaliated and there were casualties on both sides, said the army. India said the clashes happened "as a result of an attempt by the Chinese side to unilaterally change the status quo there", rebutting China's claims that Indian soldiers cross the border. This is the first fatal clash since 1975 between India and China, who fought a border war in 1962

DESPERATION COMES WITH A COST

Ekta Kapoor,

The respected woman , yes u r respected by many of the Indian women out there because that's how u portray the character in your tv serials, web series , a good daughter who can never do wrong in life, an ideal daughter in law (adarshwadi types) for whom doing any household chores wrong is like committing a sin , a loving sister , a doting mother whose role is indefinite and what not and then comes FAUJI WIVES. Do you really know what role fauji wives play in their institution.. NO, you cannot even imagine this in your dreams or even if u do which u have already shown in your web series is absolutely baseless and shameful.

You think that we Fauji WIVES are desperate. Now let me tell you the meaning of DESPERATION in our language . Yes we are desperate ..
• for that call from him just to listen those words 'ALL OK'
• yes we are desperate, for that big hug which we dream of when is on his duty serving the nation.
• yes we are desperate, for that big smile on his face when he'll step out from his gypsy seeing his beloved wife and child may be after 3- 4 months .
• yes we are desperate, for that big sign of relief on his face when he see his child calling him 'papa's and run towards him just for a kiss.
• yes we are desperate for each and every small moment which we can only dream when he is not with us.

People like you and all others go to their families on festivals and celebrations and we , what we do is to say good bye to them to go on his duty and serve the nation. We'll always be his 2nd priority because obviously 1st is the nation and we are proud of it.

Everyday or the other our men are getting martyred, we have ever naris, veterans and celebrities like you are making money out of our lives. Your so called TRP'S will definitely rise because someway or the other it's getting publicity, negative or positive I don't know . At the end your purpose is solved. But please from the next time when a solider get martyrd dont mourn his death, dont show pity to us, dont offer condolences on social media rather again start writing another script out of it to run your TRP business. You people are filthy rich and using your money and power to demean our institution. This is shameful of u, and that's y all the active celebrities are keeping their mouth shut on this.

We fauji WIVES know 'That stars which he Carries on his shoulders is the spark and light of our lives.'
When he is on duty, away from us, protecting our nation coping with all types of climatic conditions leaving behind his family the only thing which matter is DISTANCE, and for us Distance means nothing , when someone means everything.

Please open your eyes and see what we are facing because we fauji WIVES silently tell our husbands that 'I will wait for u till eternity.'

"Aur kisi janam mein dungi tumhe pyaar,
Ye zindagi to tumne watan ke naam kardi"

3 CRPF jawans martyred in terrorist attack in north Kashmir

Three Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel were killed and two others were injured in a terrorist attack in north Kashmir's Sopore town on Saturday, officials said.

The terrorists fired at a Naka point that was jointly being manned by troops of CRPF's 179th battalion and the Jammu and Kashmir Police, they said.

The three martyred jawans were identified as Head Constable Rajeev Sharma (42, Bihar), Constable CB Bhakare (38, Maharashtra) and Constable Parmar Stayapal Singh (28, Gujarat).

The two paramilitary jawans who sustained bullet injuries have been evacuated to 92 Base hospital at the Badami Bagh Cantonment in Srinagar by chopper.

This is the third attack against the paramilitary force in the Kashmir valley within a week. Earlier on Friday, a CRPF trooper was injured after terrorists fired at a similar check post in Pulwama.

CISF to provide enhanced protective gear to troops when airports, Delhi Metro resume ops: DG

The force has "spruced up" measures on anti-coronavirus protection for its troops after 11 of them in Mumbai tested positive for the viral infection that has claimed thousands of lives and infected about 10 lakh people globally.

The CISF is "augmenting" COVID-19 protective gear and healthcare paraphernalia for its over 40,000 personnel who will begin having close physical interaction with lakhs of passengers once airports and the Delhi Metro re-start operations, a top official said.

The force has "spruced up" measures on anti-coronavirus protection for its troops after 11 of them in Mumbai tested positive for the viral infection that has claimed thousands of lives and infected about 10 lakh people globally.

The CISF has 63 civil airports of the country under its security cover at present along with the Delhi Metro and they witness lakhs of passenger footfalls every day.

"We are confident that we will have much better equipment to handle the situation (in the coming days) at these two large public transport facilities where our personnel have a close physical interaction with passengers as well as other units," the force chief said.

The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) deploys about 32,000 personnel as part of its aviation security group (ASG) to guard airports and about 12,000 troops to protect the Delhi Metro which is the lifeline of national capital region including Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurgaon and Faridabad.

The force, he said, has also created isolation facilities in all its 349 units of deployment across the country.

The first positive case in the force was reported on March 28 after a head constable was found infected in Mumbai.

Officials said he has been found negative in three more tests conducted for COVID-19 till now.

"Even the 10 other personnel who were found positive and are in isolation now were asymptomatic when their samples were taken. It was the foresight of our commanders who thought of testing all the personnel who resided in the same campus where the first positive person was living," the DG said.

This CISF camp in Navi Mumbai has now been vacated and sanitised and all 145 personnel living there have been quarantined by the force at various other facilities.

This is how the Indian military is trying to prevent COVID-19 from entering its bases

The Army, Navy and Air Force are putting in place separate measures after the Indian military’s first case of COVID-19 was detected in Leh.

New Delhi: From restricting the entry of veterans and essential civil contractual staff, to staggered langar (meal) timings for troops — the Indian military has put in place strict drills to stop coronavirus from getting into its bases.

The drills are being strengthened after the Army reported its first case of COVID-19 — a 34-year-old jawan in Leh. It has quarantined all soldiers and colleagues of the soldier, who is attached to the Ladakh Scouts Regimental Centre.

A senior Army officer had earlier told ThePrint that the Army is dealing with the outbreak in three stages: Prevention within the force, assistance to the civil administration, and planning for contingencies, which may arise if the coronavirus threat reaches the next stage.

Why military is being extra cautious

Military bases can accommodate up to a few thousand personnel and their families, living as a community with close interactions.

Thus, in the eventuality of even a single person contracting COVID-19, the spread is likely to be at a faster rate, not just affecting the community, but also operational preparedness, defence sources told ThePrint.

What the Army is doing

Among the multiple measures being put in place, the Army has restricted retired personnel and any civil porters, contractual maintenance workers or vendors into the garrisons. Many of these civilians work regularly in the garrisons.

“Only bare essential movement from within or outside the garrisons is being permitted. Permissions are only being given on a case-to-case basis,” an Army source told ThePrint.

The Army has extended leaves of its personnel across the country until 15 April, and for the limited troops coming back from leave, temporary duties or courses, sources say there are separate quarantine barracks being created with beds and other basic facilities at the unit level.

The returning personnel will have to undergo a two-layered medical screening at field areas — first at transit and then at the units — after which they will be required to spend two weeks in the quarantine barracks. Every barracks will have about 15 to 25 people.

Additionally, isolation barracks are being created for suspected cases with flu-like symptoms, where they will stay put for two days. If their health doesn’t improve, they will be evacuated.

Meals for the troops will also be served barracks-wise at staggered timings, to avoid crowding. Only one designated person will be serving the troops, according to the missive. Personnel have also been advised to restrict visits to places of worship.

This aside, the Army is setting up multiple hand-washing points, minimising congestion in barracks, shutting down non-essential stores and canteens inside the garrison. It will also display instructions, banners, posters and play of audio messages across the units.

“The initial drills set up are being upgraded in minute details. The essence lies in ruthless implementation of the drills set up,” a senior Army officer said.

The Army has also has set up a mechanism to trace contact history by asking each individual to maintain a daily contact log.

The Navy, too, is in the process of shutting down offices not considered essential, and enforcing work from home for all officers.

“The men will go into a two-watch system. There will be bare essential manpower required to run the offices,” a senior Navy officer told ThePrint.

The Navy has also restricted the entry of non-uniformed people into dockyards. Since then, the dockyards are virtually empty, given that regular civil staff can’t come in after public transport was stopped, sources say.

Entry of domestic help and guests has also been restricted in the Navy’s residential areas.

Navy personnel who have been on ships deployed in foreign countries will be quarantined for 14 days on return.

“We are still deciding the full modalities of work from home with the security overlays and procedures,” a Navy source said.

IAF restrictions

Sources in the Indian Air Force say regular briefings are being conducted on the measures to be undertaken by its personnel.

The IAF has also restricted manpower at workplaces to 50 per cent, while the other 50 per cent work from home. It has also directed the Director General Medical Services to work out a disinfection plan for office complexes of air headquarters.

In all military funeral, it is traditional that the bugler plays the sounds of the “The Last Post”.
This is a very haunting song, ‘The Last Post.’ It’s the song that gives us the lump in our throats and tears in our eyes.

This is the story behind the song. It all began in 1862 during the American Civil War, when Union Army Captain Robert Ellicombe was with his men near Harrison’s Landing in Virginia . The Confederate Army was on the other side of the narrow strip of land. During the night, Captain Ellicombe heard the moans of a soldier who lay severely wounded on the field. Not knowing if it was a Union or Confederate soldier, the Captain decided to risk his life and bring the stricken man back for medical attention. Crawling on his stomach through the gunfire, the Captain reached the stricken soldier and began pulling him toward his encampment. When the Captain finally reached his own lines, he discovered it was actually a Confederate soldier, but the soldier was dead. The Captain lit a lantern and suddenly caught his breath and went numb with shock. In the dim light, he saw the face of the soldier. It was his own son. The boy had been studying music in the South when the war broke out. Without telling his father, the boy enlisted in the Confederate Army. The following morning, heartbroken, the father asked permission of his superiors to give his son a full military burial, despite his enemy status. His request was only partially granted. The Captain had asked if he could have a group of Army band members play a funeral dirge for his son at the funeral. The request was turned down since the soldier was a Confederate. But, out of respect for the father, they did say they could give him only one musician. The Captain chose a bugler. He asked the bugler to play a series of musical notes he had found on a piece of paper in the pocket of the dead youth’s uniform. This wish was granted. The haunting melody, we now know as ‘The Last Post’ used at military funerals was born.

The words are:

Day is done.
Gone the sun.
From the lakes
From the hills.
From the sky.
All is well.
Safely rest.
God is nigh.
Fading light
Dims the sight.
And a star.
Gems the sky.
Gleaming bright.
From afar.
Drawing nigh.
Falls the night.
Thanks and praise.
For our days.
Neath the sun
Neath the stars.
Neath the sky
As we go.
This we know.
God is nigh
