AWARD BHARAT RATNA TO THOSE OUR SOLDIERS WHO DID SURGICAL STRIKE?

Dear All Defence Veterans, 

EVERY ONE IS AWARE THAT THE JAWANS OF GHATAK PLATOON OF INF REGTs ENTERED POK AND RUINED 7 CAMPUS OF TERRORISTS in PAKISTAN.  ALL HIGH PROFILE VVIPS CONGRATULATED THEM NEXT DAY. FINE.
 
BUT WHY NOT BHARAT RATNA BE AWARDED TO THOSE SOLDIERS WHO DID SURGICAL STRIKE.  LIKE BHARAT RATNA AWARDED TO THOSE PERSONS WHOSE ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE FIELDS OF ARTS, LITERATURE, SCIENCE, PUBLIC SERVICES AND ANY FIELD OF HUMAN ENDEAVOUR? 
                               
DEFINITION OF BHARAT RATNA

The Bharat Ratna  is the highest award of the Republic of India. Instituted in 1954, the award conferred "in recognition of exceptional service/performance of the highest orderwithout distinction of race, occupation, position. The award was originally limited to achievements in the arts, literature, science, and public services, but the Govt expanded the criteria to include "any field of human endeavour" in Dec 2011. 

I REQUEST TO MY SENIOR OFFICERS (DEF VETs) FOR DOING THE NEEDFUL.

WITH WARM REGARDS, 

H.Capt Baldev Singh

  2. बिलकुल सही कहा. We are not at par with civilians disabilities. They are drawing much more allowances than a fauji having similar disability.

  3. We must not indulge in demanding BR for every act of bravado. We got our own awards. In fact BR is a diluted award.

  4. In baaton se kuchh nahi hone wala hai. An Anna Hazare type movement is required to put across the message. A movement which remains a movement and not get converted into a launch pad to a political career for some self seeking people. And it's important that complete unity is maintained amongst the vaterans. For this, it'd important to ensure there is no place in it for any one's political ambitions.

  5. Bharat Ratna is a tinsel which would not give even a single meal when the surgical-strike-participant is out of uniform. Let the Govt guarantee all of them a second career, commensurate with their age, family responsibilities and skills, as and when they get discharged.

  6. All of us seem to be having strange views about executing our assigned responsibilities and come up with stranger rewards for fulfilling their bounden duties. A soldier is tuned to react to any act of aggression to nation when he is ordered and led by brave leaders. He seldom acts on his own initiative. What was done in PoK by our Special Force is the glaring example of our military tradition of valour. They need to be congratulated, no doubt, but to say they must be awarded Bharat Ratna is going a bit too far in which case every soldier or officer will have to be awarded this honour.
    Artiste, scientist or any other who distinguishes by his or her unique contribution does not do it by the compulsion of of concomitants. The genius in them flows out as natural as a brook from mother earth.
    There is no comparison between the soldier and artiste. both are unique in their own right.
    If we confer "BR" on those who achieved victory in "SR" every soldier need to be awarded this honor because when situation demands every soldier will do the same what these braves have done.
    We will have more "BRs" sitting in dharna at Jantar Mantar fighting for restoration of their honour relentlessly under denigration
