The trial by press of senior army generals in the face of vehement denials of the army top brass of having come to any conclusion as yet, seems to have been orchestrated by vested interests out to malign the images of senior officers for personal vendetta. The questions that agitate the mind are
1. why was the timing of the COI such that Lt Gen Rath could be prevented from joining the designated post?
2. When the Army Commander, Eastern Command, knew of the issuance of the NOC why did he keep quiet for so long?
3. Who leaked the libelous canards to the press to go to town falsely claiming things which had not taken place? Eg. :The officers have been indicted, The promotion has been cancelled, etc.
4. Why the Army Commander , Eastern Command did not deem it fit to appeal to the press to show restraint in reporting, leave alone countering the falsehood?
5. Is there some truth in the news report of the turf war between the Army Commander, Eastern Command and the present Army Chief? If yes, then is this the fallout of that tussle? If yes, then only God can help our country.
6. Who is Mannu Pubby and who are his sources in the Army Eastern Command?
These are questions that are vital for a dispassionate appraisal of the performance of some of the highest ranking officials of the army and also for the security of the country. Hope the authorities concerned will find out, by instituting another COI if need be.
