Army Chief's Age Row.

Frankly, this issue is beyond my understanding. The present Army Chief claims that his year of birth is 1951 and not 1950. And he has gone to the court to get this matter settled. But then i wonder what stopped him from taking the same actions before????

I dont believe that any officer is so naive enough to not bother about fixing his incorrectly mentioned date of birth. And if he has brought up this issue after he has become the Chief and that he has some ulterior motives in doing so... i fail to agree that he had been scheming and plotting about this for the past 10-15 years!!! Imagine, having a reminder in his mobile reminding him of digging up this issue when he is in a position of supreme authority!!! It just seems so unlikely.

But then what is this all about??? A man of his caliber and position wont ideally just cook up a thing like this. And had this happened without the world knowing about it, then it was fine. But now every tom, dick and harry(me included) is talking about this and commenting on it....

The issue has made me doubt the chief and doubt this whole matter which has been so damn publicised by the media....

I demand the whole truth or nothing at all. Its that simple.
