                                                             Indian Armed Forces


Welcome to my blog and thank you for this much support. So let's start. Today's blog is based on the "Indian Armed Forces".The headquarters of the Indian Armed Forces is in New Delhi, the capital city of India. The President of India serves as the formal Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces, while actual control lies with the executive headed by the Prime Minister of India. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) is the ministry charged with the responsibilities of countering insurgency and ensuring the external security of India. General Bipin Rawat is the Chief of the Army Staff (COAS), Admiral Karambir Singh is the Chief of the Naval Staff (CNS) and Air Chief Marshal Rakesh Kumar Singh Bhadauria is the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS). The Indian armed force is split into different groups based on their region of operation. The Indian Army has divided administratively into seven tactical commands, each under the control of different Lieutenant Generals. The Indian Air Force is divided into five operational and two functional commands. Each command is headed by an air officer commanding-in-chief with the rank of air marshal. The Indian Navy operates three commands. Each command is headed by a flag officer commanding-in-chief with the rank of vice admiral. There are two joint commands whose head can belong to any of the three services. These are the Strategic Forces Command and the Andaman and Nicobar Command. The lack of an overall military commander has helped keep the Indian Armed Forces under civilian control and has prevented the rise of military dictatorships unlike in neighboring Pakistan.
The Armed Forces have four main tasks:

  • To assert the territorial integrity of India.
  • To defend the country if attacked by a foreign nation.
  • To support the civil community in case of disasters (e.g. flooding).
  • To participate in United Nations peacekeeping operations in consonance with India's commitment to the United Nations Charter.

Recruitment and Training

The vast majority of soldiers in the Indian Army are enlisted personnel, called by the Army as Soldier, general duty. These soldiers are recruited at different recruitment rallies across the country. At the rally, Army recruiters look at candidates from surrounding districts and examine their fitness for the Army. Candidates for Soldier, general duty must have Class 10 Leaving Certificate and in the range of 17 to 21 years. The Army also does online applications to appear at recruitment rallies. Requirements for technical roles, like nurses, artillery, Missile Defense have more stringent educational requirements. The least restrictive job in the Army is House Keeper and Cleaner, for which candidates only have to be 8th pass.
At the rally, prospective soldiers are evaluated for Height, Weight, vision and hearing, and physical fitness. Fitness tests include a 1.6 km Run, Pull-Ups, jumping a 9 Feet ditch, and doing a zig-zag balance test. After recruitment rally, accepted candidates go to Basic Training.


Indian Army

The Indian Army is a voluntary service, the military draft having never been imposed in India. It is one of the largest standing armies (and the largest standing volunteer army) in the world, with 1,129,900 active troops and 960,000 reserve troops. The force is headed by the Chief of Army Staff of the Indian Army, General Bipin Rawat. The highest rank in the Indian Army is Field Marshal, but it is a largely ceremonial rank and appointments are made by the President of India, on the advice of the Union Cabinet of Ministers, only in exceptional circumstances. (See Field Marshal (India)). Late Field Marshal S.H.F.J. Manekshaw and the late Field Marshal Kodandera Madappa Cariappa are the only two officers who have attained this rank.


Indian Navy

The Indian Navy is the naval branch of the Indian armed forces. With 58,350 men and women, including 7,000 personnel of the Indian Naval Air Arm, 1,200 Marine Commandos (MARCOS) and 1,000 personnel of the Sagar Prahari Bal. The Indian Navy is one of the world's largest naval forces and aspires to develop into a blue water navy. The Indian Navy has a large operational fleet consisting of 2 aircraft carriers, 1 amphibious transport dock, 9 Landing ship tanks, 10 destroyers, 14 frigates, 1 nuclear-powered attack submarine, 14 conventionally-powered attack submarines, 24 corvettes, 6 mine countermeasure vessels, 25 patrol vessels, 4 fleet tankers, and various auxiliary vessels.


Indian Air Force

The Indian Air Force is the air arm of the Indian armed forces. Its primary responsibility is to secure Indian airspace and to conduct aerial warfare during a conflict. It was officially established on 8 October 1932 as an auxiliary air force of the British Raj and the prefix Royal was added in 1945 in recognition of its services during World War II. After India achieved independence from the United Kingdom in 1947, the Royal Indian Air Force served the Dominion of India, with the prefix being dropped when India became a republic in 1950. The Indian Air Force plays a crucial role in securing Indian airspace and also in India's power projection in South Asia and the Indian Ocean. Therefore, modernizing and expanding the Indian Air Force is a top priority for the Indian government. Over the years, the IAF has grown from a tactical force to one with transoceanic reach. The strategic reach emerges from the induction of Force Multipliers like Flight Refuelling Aircraft (FRA), Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and credible strategic lift capabilities.

                                        The curriculum of our current education system Today's blog is based on " The curriculum of our current education system ". I wholeheartedly agree that the tight curriculum of our current education system leaves no room for imagination and creativity. The academic pressure is so much on them, they have forgotten their innate creativity and imagination. They are always under the pressure of studies. This pressure is put on them from the beginning of the session. Formative assessment activities of all the subjects, studies and their assignments of all the subjects, unit tests, co-curricular activities, homework, classwork, projects, practical exams, summative examination, date sheet, result, again the new term, etc. So much of pressure on the young growing children! Are we educating them or training them in the art of being stressful throughou...

दुनिया के अजीब रंग

 दुनिया के अजीब रंग  दुनिया कितनी बदल गई है इस बात से तो सभी परिचित है लेकिन समझना नहीं चाहता कोई।  इंसान का व्यवहार तौर तरीका सबमे बदलाव आगया।  पहले का वक़्त देखा जाये तो इंसान खुश रहते थे लेकिन आज सभी एक न खत्म होने वाली एक अनंत दौड़ का हिस्सा मात्र बन कर रह गए है।  तरक्की करना अच्छी बात है लेकिन ऐसी तरक्की किस काम की जो इंसान के अंदर से इंसानियत खत्म कर दे।   पहले नौकरी एक जीवन जीने के लिए महत्वपूर्ण थी लेकिन आज तो कुछ और ही देखने को मिलता है।  इंसान के पास अपनों के साथ वक़्त बिताने तक के लिए वक़्त नहीं है क्यों ? फिर अपने अंतिम समय में उसी इंसान को सब याद आता है की अरे अपने मित्र बंधुवो से तो मिल ही नहीं पाए पूरा जीवन मशीन की तरह काम करने में निकाल दिया और खुद का जीवन जीना ही भूल गए।  दुनिया बड़ी अजीब है एक छोटा सा जीवन मिलता है और उसमे भी हमारा हक़ नहीं होता।   अब लोग आपस में ही प्रतिद्वंदी की भाति व्यवहार करते है और अंतिम छड़ तक उन्हें नहीं पता होता है की प्रतिद्वंदिता थी तो किस चीज की थी।  आज का युग अर्थप्रधान युग है आज के समय ...
