kargil War:A Story Of Gurkha in His Own words

[Bornubus]

Thank you for tagging me on this thread. I believe it is the job of ISPR (Inter Services Public Relations ) a department of our army which gives responsible statements regarding all events related to the army. If you look at the newspapers of that time, I am sure you will find a lot of stories regarding Pakistani side of the story of Kargil war. I believe there have been heroics on both sides. No body can deny that. Captain "Col Sher Khan" story is full of heroics. If you are interested, I will look it up in Internet and post it for you.
About this story I find some points unusual which are,
The height of Khalubar post is given as 17500 metres above mean sea level. This is almost twice the height of mount Everest which is 8848 metres above mean sea level. It should be 17500 feet above mean sea level. That is more reasonable.
Killing enemy soldiers is part of the job but to cut their heads is a bit too much. Does Geneva Convention allow this ? Does Indian army approve of it. Or are you trying to give us the message that in the next war we should also adopt this practice ? I certainly hope not. Islam does not allow our soldiers to cut off enemy's head.
This is my humble reply. I hope it satisfies you.

Thanks for your kind reply....

Gurkhas are too down to earth and simplistic....that they can't even abuse like north Indians....but in Uniform they become something else.

Not Nawaz Sharif. It was what is commonly known as - the gang of four.

These generals were the masterminds of the Kargil misadventure and also staging a military coup against Nawaz in 1999. They were Generals Mush, Aziz Khan, Mahmood Ahmad and Shahid Aziz; all four were first instrumental in launching the disastrous Kargil war and then staging a coup against Nawaz.

It is incredible that NO ONE else in the Pak Army had a clue of what was going on since they weren't taken into confidence about the Op. Even your Naval and air force chiefs were kept in the dark!

It's not about who waged the war.
It's about the Guy who disturbed it and converted a Victorious war to defeat.

India won the Kargil war against Pakistan because India used East Asian looking Ghurkas to do their fighting. Were the Hindu indian troops hiding miles behind the Ghurkas?

Gurkhas are also Hindu.

If ever played COD MW2 you won't say like this . Before we had less technology but today why can't we create there Events and bring back these great soles ?? We can also will know how difficult it is . So people will have more respect for our Defence personals. Why should we always plays American Crap (nice games though ) but instead I can play the role of Col. then it will be awesome


My hearty respect ....

Let me tell you we can create a game like COD or BF,Most of the work is done in India,due to IT Sector.
There are some games which are RPG and etc. Support them as a Indian Buy their products, even if you get free pirated. 500 Rupees per month is not a big deal, but it will help encourage our Game Developing Industry in India!
USA has not got to this stage of dominating world gaming scenario without the encouragement of their domestic market first.
Always Buy your Indian Brand over the Foreign one.You might not look so updated for the moment, but hey, we will give them a run for their money in just some time, just like we did in many fields.

Right!!
I've met a few Gurkhas, they 're too sweet and shy. But they 're quick to pick up fights.
Gurkha regiment is one of my fav regiments in IA.

courtesy Nawaz Sharif.

Sttop blaming your govermnet fo military failures alone.

Think logically; was it possible for Nawz to request US without consent from PA?

On Topic: Interesting article.

We have better war valor stories than these, only if our government decides to share it !

You forgot Havaldar Lalak Jan Shaheed?

India won the Kargil war against Pakistan because India used East Asian looking Ghurkas to do their fighting. Were the Hindu indian troops hiding miles behind the Ghurkas?

India won because:

1. The size of its armed forces
2. More fire power
3. Better commanders

Despite being heavily outnumbered Pakistani troops from Northern Light Infantry fought to the bitter end.
