I think you are misreading the intent of the comics if you find them in any way demeaning to the army. The intent of the comics is a reflection of political apathy towards issues related to the army.
And I think you misunderstood my comment. I strictly spoke to comics on Indian Army where they depict the helplessness without understanding the true picture or gravity of the situation. It is an art and can be interpreted in many ways , so I don't understand why it cannot be critiqued for poor depiction of the relevant condition. Liker here Indian Army might not have violated ceasefire but they did respond to it to their full might. Unfortunately we do have a Brave Officer sacrificing his life but noway did it minimize the damage that our Army caused. So for me to see their hands tied doesn't sit well. More than political Apathy because in this situation other than back channels or a public statement condemning it , GOI doesn't have an option. So yes , I don't relate to this comic , as simple , this should be constructed as my dislike for the Great art that is championed by Laxman and others.

This one, i don't agree with, it rather than capturing Political Apathy made a caricature of Indian Army principles, does that mean I want it removed , No but yes I disagree . Simple.

Despite everything army men give to the nation they have never been aptly backed by the government. They don't even get the gratitude and respect they deserve.
I have a very different view on this , generally Indian Army does enjoy respect and thankully last GOI and this one has made some political symbolic steps in that direction. One Rank, One Pension and War Memorial etc. But like I said, it is more of a social opinion which differs from region to region. I might feel proud of our boys but a gent living in Kashmir or NE might have a different account.

I think cartoons can be a crisp and quick way to make a point in comparison to op-eds, articles and news features.
They are a way for expression opinions and it should be treated as like that, the right to agree or disagree solely rests with the reader.

Fair enough. Of course everyone is entitled to their subjective opinions. I wanted to see why specifically you found the content objectionable as I didn't. And you have stated your valid reasons. IMO it is a harsh viewpoint, but that's how you see it.

Strictly critiquing the art and execution of the piece , IMO, it would have been more befitting if the artist had used say Defence Minister or even the PM to show the political Apathy for Armymen (which this comic doesn't talk about). I find it silly to put an Army Representative in that condition because an officer died bravely fighting in this situation. We did retaliate. So it's not the Army which is bound by situation rather the polity which has to account for many factors.

My viewpoint might seem harsh but they are intended to this comic's representation of a sensitive issue which tome the artist failed to capture.

subraminiyam never have chance to loot the people ,becoz in tamil Nadu its has to Jaya or Karuna,that's why he hate tamil Nadu😆
Later he joined with BJP ,some still being pure the reason they dont have opportunity

its mr rao who gave chance to him as part of 1991 ,his economic knowledge does not make as good human ,stay away from him is better for Namo and Bjp

i agreed with u nobody like subramaniam swamy. his views are not only dangerous for the ideals on which india was formed that said silencing his voice would bring greater shame to our democracy
really is democracy there ?
he gain popularity by instigating hinu/musimu or Aryan /dravidian in TN u can see his supporter more or less hindutva,

Why The BJP Government Looks Like UPA-3

GST/VAT

Then: BJP states opposed GST on issues like revenue-sharing on petroleum and liquor; ditto for VAT
Now: Has set a fresh, urgent deadline for GST implementation. Also supporting VAT now.

Black money

Then: Clamoured for making public the list of people who had stashed money in Swiss banks
Now: Says there is no such list of people with Swiss bank accounts. To look for black money within India now.

Opening up Insurance

Then: Even as late as August 2013, the BJP opposed further opening up of insurance
Now: Has approved increase in FDI in insurance from 26% to 49%

Aadhaar

Then: Opposed and said it was a futile exercise. Said it should be merged with NPR.
Now: Has allowed Aadhaar to continue, is giving it more funds. Will link it to new services.

Henderson Brooks Report

Then: Rajya Sabha LoP Arun Jaitley made a strong pitch for declassifiying the report on the 1962 India-China war
Now: Defence minister Jaitley says the report's release or disclosure would not be in national interest

Diesel Subsidy

Then: Opposed the monthly increase in diesel prices on the grounds that it will impact Railways, farmers
Now: Has continued the policy set by the UPA government

Nuclear Liability Bill

Then: Was instrumental in pushing a very high liability for N-suppliers, which nixed all progress in N-projects
Now: Liability cap' expected to see renegotiations during Modi's US visit in Sept. N-suppliers want a lower cap.

FDI in Multi-Brand Retail

Then: Strongly opposed it and said that when in power, they will reverse policy
Now: Quiet on policy reversal though asserting its opposition. Has further opened up single brand retail.

Its only been a few months since he became PM and he is trying to change a corrupt country with the population of 1.27 billion people. It will take time and people will have to be patient.

I think this topic was to discuss the military and defense aspect of Modi govt. If it is general effectiveness of the govt we have a topic http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4097671

Or perhaps mods can merge it all together.
