OMFG! Do you have OCD or something? Seriously how old are you? And what do you want to prove by repeating your delusional 'observations'?

This thread is NOT about what YOU want to believe! And neither is the IA chief a liar nor is the Indian procurement process fraudulent. You got to be a real tool to believe that. None of us is going to accept your stupid assumptions. Now, its your choice whether you want to stick to your delusions or want to see the light.
 
sir i am sorry but they are going left right like uncontrolled truck .no indian want to stay on topic sir . what you think sir its corruption in IA AND MOD ?

You are right. It is Incredible Indian corruption Incredible India lies and Incredible Indian incompetence. Very unlikely ingredients for a bullying superpower pretensions I must say. They must try living in peace in the neighbourhood and behave like China.

Well MR.PERFECT i don't understand what is your problem, You got nothing to do if he is lier or not. May be he is not perfectionist like you. It might be for more share from defence budget to the army.

Temper temper. calm down my man. Indian claims to be a super power have been exposed. nothing wrong with that.

You must tell your chief of army to stop being a liar if he is a liar, stop being incompetent and stop bullying smaller countries.

no need to get offended
