FORUM

Admiral SM Nanda:

For well known traditional reasons, the Indian Navy was the Senior Service till 26 Jan 1950, all the way on from its 'official' foundation date of 05 Sep 1612. Our indigenous maritime tradition too, of course has much older firmware, mention of which is made in the book ' Under Two Ensigns ' - right to circa 1700 - 2500 BC. Later Shivaji, was a firm believer in the doctrine 'Jalam Jasya Valaiam Tasya ' ie ' He who rules the seas is all powerful.' Shivaji's Maratha Fleet Commander Admiral Khanoji Angre was in this fine tradition. We may not be able to further honour this 18th century Lion of the Sea [ or we may yet be able to do more in some manner - renaming a port city perhaps ? ] In more recent IN history a very firm and decisive sweep and strike to dominate the Indian Ocean was made in 1971. The Admiral who did us proud must of course get overdue Admiral of the Indian Fleet recognition. Come to think of it, better late than never: Field Marshal Manekshaw in his Foreword to the Book 'Battle Honours of the Indian Army' by Major Sarbans Singh PSC forcefully reminds us that the Royal Navy was awarded the Battle Honour 'Armada 1588' in 1954 and the British Army got the Battle Honour "Tangier 1662 - 1680' in 1909 ! Doing an Honour is never too late, in good grace. Let us not be found wanting in recognising our silent service.

Lt Col (retd) Premendra Singh

He deserves to be honoured

Your article ought to be more forceful in expressing the very serious Naval sentiments.

Admiral SM Nanda is the only Naval Officer deserving to be honoured as the First Admiral of the Fleet of the Indian Navy.

Under his outstanding leadership, it was the Naval Effort of Admiral Nanda that projected the importance of the Navy and its power - and brought it "home" and burnt it into the "conciousness" of the nation and its politicians - that made the Navy proud.

In the knowledgeable Naval and Maritime circles of a maritime nation like the United Kindom, it was often remarked that - "Had the control of the sea during the Bangladesh war not been so totally with the Indian Navy, we would have liked to see what the outcome of this war would have been!!!???"

Cdr Suresh Ahluwalia Retd

Is Admiral Nanda a role model ?
While I do agree with Admiral Nanda's contributions as Naval Chief, lot of the sheen has gone away with his kin/family using his pre eminence to wangle Defence contracts etc. Also the BMW hit & run case has been covered up. With the evidence one has seen in the media, can Admiral not influence his grand son to own up guilt. He has been an inspiration to many sailors, but can't he influence the grand son or is it that blood is thicker than water.But Admiral Nanda has been an excellent officer; is he a role model???
Gopi
Stop promoting interests of people like Ad.Nanda
It was painful to go through the proposal mooted by your website. Nanda is not recognised or remembered for what he achieved during his entire career but for mega billion defence deals his family swings thanks to his appropriate connections in the corridors of power. For Christ sake stop promoting interest of people like him otherwise a very wrong message would be conveyed.
Rajesh Kumar Singh

Why did Admiral Nanda lose credibility ?

Admiral Nanda lost his credibility due to his son, Suresh Nanda, an arms dealer. Sanjeev who was caught in famous BMW case.
P K Saha

It is worth attention for all his misdeeds in defence deals. Should have been terminated and stripped of rank and other perks whatever it is.
Ram Raheem

Incorrect statement about Arjan Singh
Incorrect Statement about Arjan Singh being junior to Admiral Nanda. Arjan Singh retired in 1969 as ACM. Admiral Nanda was made CNS in February 1970.
Madhukar Sinha

Everybody is aware

I am sure the votaries of Admiral Nanda are aware that the agent in chief of all Defence Deals are Admiral Nanda and his children. His son was raided recently by our intelligence agencies

TAIL-PIECE

A lady approaches her priest and tells him "Father, I have a problem. I have two female talking parrots, but they only know how to say one thing."

"What do they say?" the priest inquired.

"They only know how to say, 'Hi, we're prostitutes. Want to have some fun?'"

"That's terrible!" the priest exclaimed, "but I have a solution to your problem. Bring your two female parrots over to my house and I will put them with my two male talking parrots whom I have taught to pray and read the bible. My parrots will teach your parrots to stop saying that terrible phrase and your female parrots will learn the joys of praise and worship."

"Thank you!" the woman responded.

The next day the woman brings her female parrots to the priest's house. His two male parrots are holding the rosary beads and praying in their cage. The lady puts her two female parrots in with the male parrots and the female parrots say "Hi we're prostitutes, want to have some fun?"

One male parrot looks over at the other male parrot and exclaims, "Put the beads away, brother. Our prayers have been answered!"

Aaj Ki Aawaz

Inflation is going up and up….. nothing seems to be working to bring it down,
With all the buttons karr liya Sarkar ne clown!!!

Inflation cannot be brought down overnight,
On its having a cascading effect never loose sight!!!

But in this case inflation has also risen because some Ministers fuelled it,
With the inflation causers they chose to sit!!

It's alleged that Pawar and Kamalnath are two such Ministers,
They say their actions have caused inflationary pains to their Indian brothers and sisters!

Seems the good Doctor has given a clean chit to inflation too!!!
But then what can the poor fellow do!!!

Some say that his caretaker term or Regency is now coming to an end,
After all for Rahul karr raha hai Manmohan Prime Ministership tend!!!

Maybe they'll make him the President ,
And in 7 Race Course there could be a new resident!!!

But I feel Manmohan will complete his term,
Though quite a few are trying ki into Manmohan's chair apna way karre worm!!!

Will Sonia want to become PM when UPA is touching new lows harr dinn???
Rahul is too inexperienced and Nation's confidence he still has to win!!!

Or could it be that she and Rahul have a magic wand and will set things right,
Turn the Country around…..turn day from night!!!!

Yes there will be a Cabinet reshuffle ..... a real big one,
And maybe this time Sonia will give some work to her son!!!

UP turnaround is not going to happen so give him a chance to prove himself on the job,
Into the Cabinet karro Rahul ko lob!!!

Sis Priyanka says Rahul will prove himself…. she's said this in the past!!!
Well he better do this because time is running out fast!!!

If he wants to lead this country he has to learn to have politics always on his mind!!!
And a new coterie he needs to find!!!

As of now Rahul's Gandhigiri has not clicked,
In fact because of some of his recent statments he's got many ticked!!!

Priyanka seems to be a natural politician….. its in her khoon,
Many Congressis hope she enters active politics soon!!!

But they also say that now UP is out of Congress's reach,
And UPites say Congress ko lesson karr diya hai teach!!!

But seems Congress ne nahi learn kiya hai lesson,
Becuase its not doing anything by which the anti Congress feeling ho jaye lessen!!

Mani Shankar Aiyer is positioning himself as the next Foreign Minister,
Pranab Da's reaction , ' What are you up to Mister'!!!

Mani says that Pranab himself welcomed his dream to sit one day in MEA's chair,
Whereas Pranab Da in a diplomatic way had said , ' Don't you dare'!!!

After all as MEA Pranab Da has become a Diplomat!!!
Art of Diplomacy…..slap you and make it look like a gentle pat!!!

Or tell you to go to hell in such a way that you look forward to the trip,
Make you feel he's prodding you whereas actually karr raha hai trip!!!

RJD's Raghunath says he'll pull out Nitish's tongue,
His friends say he cannot be held responsible for statements under influence of bhaang!

Nitish said that Bihar is getting step motherly treatment at which Raghunath blew a fuse,
And tongue pulling threat Raghunath ne kiya use!!!

Raghunath is also known as Laloo's 'bhompoo'…… expected to make noise,
No wonders he has such a loud voice!!!

Amar Singh has been busy giving interview during the Bachchan wedding,
Surprised how he took out time because nuptial arrangements he was heading!!!

Amar seems to forget that we all can see the broken houses in his dostis ka trail,
In his friendships many relationships of his friends huee hai fail!!!

In newspapers you may get to see ads on Amrinder….. Missing and Wanted,
Dullo's way to get Amrinder back but Amrinder is not going to be taunted!!!

Dullo wants Amrinder and Bhattal to assist in MC Polls,
Knowing the results both don't want to play in MC Polls any roles!!!

From Captian of the Ship now Amrinder is only a Sailor,
And he now looks tired and paler!!!

His wifey in Patiala keeps telling all that Amrinder will return any time,
She's started to sound like a bell jo same music karti hai chime!!

Confucius says…..If you want the Media to go gaga just ban the Media!!!
Seems Big B tried this idea!!!

He banned them and Media just went berserk…… Media became as crazy as the fans,
And all because of the Media bans!!!

They stood out and demeaned themselves getting info from Drivers and Security,
Seeing their plight for them you really felt pity!!

They were made to feel unwelcome … and they bore the insult,
All for higher TRP result!!!!

TRP ki majboori,
So listen to Confucius if you want Media to cover something just maintain doori!!!
