Modernisation of Indian Army Infantry

Okay, so at the cost of being labelled anti-national and derogatory to our armed forces and ISI agent...here's a controversial take.

Stop this style of military parade. PERIOD

What exactly is the point of showing your valour in "this way"!?

You've both Tejas and Dhruv is service but you're not confident enough in single engine planes and Dhruv's performance so you chose to bring in antique An-32s (which must be a very safe plane given it's record) and keep these on tableau.

What power do you project by having a Chap, on international stage wear a fibreglass helmet from 74?

Or what kind of shakti-pradarshan is a Guy running with a thermocol VSHORADs?

All these may be nitpicking, so just leave this. Tell me what kind of Sub-Saharan display it is to parade just one, just one piece of a half dozen different types of systems? Not to mention the fact that these were being led by BMP-2s, first inducted some five decades ago.

One mortar carrier, one LUV, one ATV, one quad...why!? You're not some tribe from Middle East who's showcasing all the different vehicles they've captured from the enemy tribe in the recent raid.
At least for parade bring 6-7 Kestrel. Fine, don't induct them...but for God sake show-off them to the world instead of taking pride in renaming imported equipment with mythological names.

If you want to show-off all the technological advancements you've done in the previous years then bring in QRSAM launcher instead of Kubs from 1968 (I know all the technicalities of how Akash is exponentially more advanced...but for the world it's still a Kub), replace BMP-2s by Kestrel, replace T-90s by Arjun and make a Zorawar lead the whole parade.

And if you want to show your military valor then bring in as many T-90s you can and parade them. Bring in 10 Agni TELs, two columns of 8 BrahMos TELs.

This is how a good military parade looks by the way...

Seems to me like they're making female cops do photo ops.
I mean it makes sense since this "feminism in forces" meme is only for PR and Opteeks, doubt wimmenz will actually be sent on the front.

Half our Army SF are poorly trained. What are you expecting from J&K police. 😆

Actually i have other thoughts on this. Hear me dont fret over my silly points though.

Wagah Antics may look silly outdated and exaggerated but it pulls tourists, crowds to border town which was otherwise derelict. It has given economic impetus to the place.

The BSF personnel really seem to enjoy the adulations and cheering by the crowd. This is a nice break from their otherwise monotonous duty. Helps them instill pride and confidence in their job.

What could be done - involve local talent to put up small performance. It will bring in more local involvement and attraction towards joining force.

Get the Corps of Signals outta circus business and BSF can do that

BSF IN, Corps of Signal OUT

This seems more likely, I don't think they will be stopping it completely
