I agree with Silverbug. 👏
What is this imaginary boogeyman that is being talked about? There is infiltration from 3 sides into India. Pakistan, China, Bangladesh.Also don't forget the Mumbai blasts where the infiltrators entered via Sea. How do you protect the country without the forces. India is not forcing ppl to join army,there is no compulsory drafting done like South Korea or US. Its voluntary. Ppl who are passionate about their country and want to serve/protect the borders and the country, join it.
It is quiet stupid to even say that the army is getting paid for their job. Yes they are getting paid but at the expense of their life and the salary which might as well be less than what a fresh IT graduate might be getting. 😕
Its very easy to sit behind our laptops in a developed country which has been independent for well over 230 yrs and expect the same from India,which has been independent for just 65 years. America has seen one 9/11 but do you know how many unfortunate terrorist attacks India has had since independence? What would we do without our Armed force then?
