Army Chief turns rogue

March 29, 2012 10:52

The government is seeing a 'rogue' general in its army chief. Like Barack Obama in the US who sacked his chief of Afghanistan operations, "runaway' Gen. Stanley McChrystal in May last year, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is seeing a general warring on Raisina Hill.

For two days in a row, defence minister A.K. Antony has had to defend himself in Parliament for actions of the army chief -- the latest being the leak of a letter that Gen. VK Singh wrote to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh pointing out critical shortages in the military arsenal.
