Dear Prime Minister,
scams in defence procurement are rampant.)
The question may arise as to what you will do with the army equipment. Well most of what we use is obsolete, have run sell by date and is unfit for any real use thus the scrap value will add to your kitty.
Who can stop you from becoming a legendary figure in history?
I am pained to see the embarrassment being inflicted on your government
due to promises made without thinking.
I would like to suggest an out of box idea to you. As it is your own
Defence Minister feels the army has lost its relevance due to no war in last
four decades. Thus, is there a need for an army at all? So, in order to guard
the borders, you can simply increase the numbers in paramilitary forces and
disband the army.
They are just a waste of money, I tell you. There are so many positives
in doing away with the army.
Please look at the positives.
1. The entire defence budget will be there for populist schemes and subsidies.
2. There will be no scams in defence procurements (because you know it
as well as we do thescams in defence procurement are rampant.)
3. PMF personnel retire at 60 years, so you don’t need to worry about facing
demands on One Rank One Pension from them.
4. You already have a chief of army staff who will bend over backwards to
oblige any suggestion so there will be instant acceptance from the army.
5. The land bank of army will become free to be sold to Adani, Ambani and other
corporate houses, who can drive your pet scheme ‘Make in India.’
6. Not to forget that you would also become the first leader in the world to
take such a step.
Therefore, a Nobel Prize for peace and host of other prizes wouldn’t be
too far away. Please don’t worry about the logistics involved in achieving this
ground-breaking objective. Just give the forces 2 years to resettle their
personnel. These people can go on study leave and look for alternative
employment by 2018.
By when it would be nearing elections, thereby giving you lakhs of
crores for your schemes. You can use the spare money to fund your 5-star
campaigns in 2019 LS elections. Army is anyway not a vote bank, so their vote
loss will not matter.
The question may arise as to what you will do with the army equipment. Well most of what we use is obsolete, have run sell by date and is unfit for any real use thus the scrap value will add to your kitty.
Imagine no army, no veterans, no OROP and most importantly we will no
longer be threats to your independence day celebrations
Who can stop you from becoming a legendary figure in history?
Please do consider my proposals.
Your well wisher
A soldier.
