He died at the age of 94 at Wellington early last Friday. The only Indians who didn't mourn were the people in the UPA government.</span><br/>It��s still unbelievable that a government formed by Indians would be so rude and indifferent to the greatest military leader India has produced post-independence, to use the words of former army chief General V.P.<div id="poll-widget"><div class="ge4Md " style="overflow:hidden;transition:height 0.3s ease;min-height:209px"><div data-type="in_view" class="loadable-inview "><div><span class="UzraQ null"><span class="aQKeu loadeblecomponentloader"></span></span></div></div></div></div>Malik. Rare are the heroes of a nation admired by commoners as their idol, inspiration and icon. Manekshaw was one such hero India always looked up to with pride and excitement. A government that decided to lower the national flag for three days as a mark of mourning when the Pope died didn't send its defence minister to attend the funeral of Field Marshall Manekshaw; nor did it allow the other two service chiefs to attend.<br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Manekshaw was the only living Field Marshal, was listed on the active list of army officers as number one and hence drew a full salary. He participated in action in the Second World War, in the 1947 war with Pakistan, the ��62 war with China, and the Pakistan wars of 1965 and 1971. Manekshaw received the Military Cross, Padma Bhushan and Padma Vibhushan. Above all, he provided hope when light was dimming and courage when disillusionment was setting in. He was utterly contemptuous of politicians and often spoke fearing no one. He was proven right about them. The Field Marshall became a legend, leaving behind the dwarves occupying South Block as dustbin material for history.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">A nation that can't honour its heroes can't produce them either. A Bharat Ratna can��t be given to persons like Manekshaw. In fact till this date no soldier has been given the highest award though they won four wars for us. We hardly see a politician whose child is serving in the forces. If you know some, kindly pass on the information to me.</span><br/><div class="js_tbl_2ad"></div><div class="mgid_second_mrec_parent"><div id="taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-3179920" class="wdt-taboola" data-target_type="mix" data-mode="thumbnails-mid" data-placement="Mid Article Thumbnails 1" data-pagetype="article" style="max-height:415px;overflow:hidden" data-ua-type="2" onclick="stpPgtn(event)"></div></div><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">The people ruling the nation today are infested with a slavish mentality �� taking orders sheepishly and trying to preserve their wealth and position. History will do justice. It��s not wealth and power, but grit and spine that matters ultimately. Sam Bahadur, as Gen. Manekshaw was affectionately known, had both in abundance. The leaders who chose to stay away from giving a last salute to this brave man one last time may have huge money but that's not a factor to give them a place in history and public memory. They die a double death, one of the body and the other of infamy. Their system orders the national flag to be lowered for a third-rate corrupt politician, but the nation's bravest man was denied the honour because some bureaucrats in the defence ministry looked at Sam just like another career officer ranked at par with the Cabinet Secretary, hence undeserving of an official national mourning. The heavens would not have fallen if the President and Prime Minister had attended the last rites of our Field Marshall. But chained to 10 Janpath, the smallness couldn't rise to the Himalayan call of duty. The government failed but the nation rose to say: ��Sam Bahadur </span><div class="mgid_country_osv_parent"><div id="ad_6e9c4-osv-mrec-3179920" class="adInv undefined" data-ua-type="2" onclick="stpPgtn(event)"></div></div><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Zindabad.��</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">When Nehru's two prot��g��s, V.K. Krishna Menon and Gen B.M. Kaul, failed the nation during the 1947 war (remember the infamous jeep scandal involving Menon?) and after the 1962 defeat at the hands of the Chinese, Maneksahw was called to take command of the eastern sector. His first order was: ��No more withdrawals, march to the posts and recapture.�� This re-energised the demoralised troops but both Kaul and Menon tried their best to make life hell for the brave Manekshaw, though they couldn't succeed beyond a point. I was told by a senior military officer that they also instituted an inquiry against him for committing ��anti-national activities�� when Manekshaw replaced the name of a Gandhi Hall with Sardar Patel's at Wellington (though there are other more interesting stories for that inquiry having been set up).</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Fighting on the Burma front against the Japanese in 1942, Manekshaw was almost pronounced dead when brought to Rangoon hospital with nine bullets in the lung, liver and kidneys. The military surgeon was reluctant to operate seeing the hopeless condition even though Sam was just about conscious. The surgeon asked what had happened to him. Sam replied: ��Oh, a donkey kicked.�� The surgeon decided that if a soldier could have such a sense of humour at that critical hour, he must operate to save him. Sam survived and rose to become India's eighth army chief.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">He led India to glory in 1971 when after many centuries our soldiers decisively defeated a foreign force and ensured its complete surrender. Able lieutenants always assist a leader, but the credit should always go to the commanding abilities of the captain. Sam had great colleagues in Lt. Gen. JFR Jacob and Lt. Gen J.S. Aurora. Yet it was his leadership that won the day for us.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Manekshaw was outspoken. He literally refused to take Indira Gandhi's orders and finally had the cabinet accept his timing on when to declare war. At the height of his popularity Indira Gandhi feared he might take over in a military coup, but he assured her that he didn't have such ambitions.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">After retirement Manekshaw was denied the honours usually given to a Field Marshall. No assistant, no bungalow and staff car and no emoluments befitting his rank. Only last year when he was in military hospital, the old dues were restored and a cheque of Rs 1.6 crore presented to him covering all his past dues. But to what avail? </span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">He was a true Parsi. The story goes that when the Parsis landed in India a thousand years ago driven out of their land, Iran, by Muslim rulers, they prayed for shelter in the Hindu kingdom of Jadu Rana in Gujarat. The king offered a jar of milk filled to the brim and the Parsis returned the jar after adding sugar to it indicating they would be part of the larger society as a contributing, sweetening factor and not as an alien segment demanding extra space. And they proved it too.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">During the framing of the Constitution Parsis were offered special status as minorities but politely refused. They have contributed greatly to the national wealth, pride and valour. Dadabhai Naoroji, Jamshetji Tata, Madam Bhikaji Cama, Ardeshir Godrej, Homi Jehagir Bhabha and Nani Palkivala are among the best who have added to the glory of their adopted nation without ever asking for anything special in return. Manekshaw was one of the greatest gems among them, nay among us all. Recently, a book by Bakhtiar K. Dadabhoy titled </span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Sugar In Milk</span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)"> (Rupa publications) has admiringly presented the great lives of 12 eminent Parsis, which I recommend as a must-read.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Honouring Manekshaw doesn't mean he was an angel incarnate. But he was a man with a capital 'M'. He had weaknesses and an officer's arrogance. But who among us and among the ��worshipped tall deities�� comes without their share of such points. Any dearth of tall men with feet of clay? But the primary driving force to bestow honours on men and women has always been their principal achievements and conduct. Manekshaw too should be judged on his greater contribution to national life. In our daily lives we see ordinary people doing great deeds and becoming extraordinary. The nation must learn to appreciate them and bow her head before such people.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">Such acts alone enliven a civilisation and provide oxygen to grow. Every nation worth her name does that. The body of the lone officer to die in the Entebbe operation was received at the airport by the Israeli Prime Minister. The British monarchy and the democratic government take the greatest pride in honouring their soldiers and so do other nations who have a soul. Heroes are always beyond the regime of bureaucratic protocol but this can be understood only by those who have their own mind to decide and do not follow others�� diktats. In India, soldiers are treated second rate, their prestige is often mocked at and their fate is decided by the IAS </span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">babus</span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)"> who have earned notoriety for reasons other than providing a clean administration and efficient governance. Hence joining the forces is no longer a matter of pride and preference, see the number of vacancies the forces have now. When the ugly politicians look down on patriotism and honour of the soldier, we see heroes laid to rest unsung and soldiers committing suicide.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">This is the government which has put up special instruction boards at airports authorising free access to a gentleman belonging to the royal family to pass security gates without frisked, for reasons not unknown, but has denied that privilege to army chiefs, who are entrusted with defending our nation. This government has also another dubious distinction of having been returned the bravery medals awarded posthumously to security personnel who died fighting the </span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">jihadis</span><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)"> while protecting Parliament and the MPs sitting inside it. The medals were returned because the parents of these armymen were stunned to see the rulers protecting the attacker, Afzal Guru. They regarded this as an insult to their brave children who had laid down their lives fighting Afzal for the sake of the nation.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">The government also refused to celebrate the Pokharan-II blast anniversary as it thought the day eulogises the Vajpayee government. Pokharan made the nation proud but the government of the day didn't want to share that elation. There is no more a Kargil victory day celebration and the level of Vijay Diwas, celebrated on December 16 each year to commemorate the 1971 victory, has also been drastically scaled down. There is not a single Victory Memorial worth its glory dedicated to the Indian soldiers' bravery. The Jai Jawan Jyoti lies under the shadow of a memorial erected by the colonial masters in honour of those who fought for their empire and not for Indian freedom. And the British memorial is so gigantic and overpowering that it literally dwarfs the small memorial lit for the Indian national heroes.</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">The politicians ruling our nation have myopic dreams and a shrunk vision for the great land called India but huge manoeuvring power and insatiable greed for their personal empowerment. Hence their houses are clean and ostentatious, but public hospitals stink, railway platforms are dirty and airports look like anemic bodies dating back to the 1950s famine. Policies are not people-oriented but commission-driven. Any surprise if the Manekshaws are ignored and traitors of the 1962 war honoured?</span><br/><span class="span " data-ua-type="1" onclick="stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)">The author is the Director, Dr

He participated in action in the Second World War, in the 1947 war with Pakistan, the ��62 war with China, and the Pakistan wars of 1965 and 1971. Manekshaw received the Military Cross, Padma Bhushan and Padma Vibhushan. Above all, he provided hope when light was dimming and courage when disillusionment was setting in. He was utterly contemptuous of politicians and often spoke fearing no one. He was proven right about them. The Field Marshall became a legend, leaving behind the dwarves occupying South Block as dustbin material for history.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"A nation that can't honour its heroes can't produce them either.

History will do justice. It��s not wealth and power, but grit and spine that matters ultimately. Sam Bahadur, as Gen. Manekshaw was affectionately known, had both in abundance. The leaders who chose to stay away from giving a last salute to this brave man one last time may have huge money but that's not a factor to give them a place in history and public memory. They die a double death, one of the body and the other of infamy. Their system orders the national flag to be lowered for a third-rate corrupt politician, but the nation's bravest man was denied the honour because some bureaucrats in the defence ministry looked at Sam just like another career officer ranked at par with the Cabinet Secretary, hence undeserving of an official national mourning. The heavens would not have fallen if the President and Prime Minister had attended the last rites of our Field Marshall. But chained to 10 Janpath, the smallness couldn't rise to the Himalayan call of duty.

Krishna Menon and Gen B.M. Kaul, failed the nation during the 1947 war (remember the infamous jeep scandal involving Menon?) and after the 1962 defeat at the hands of the Chinese, Maneksahw was called to take command of the eastern sector. His first order was: ��No more withdrawals, march to the posts and recapture.�� This re-energised the demoralised troops but both Kaul and Menon tried their best to make life hell for the brave Manekshaw, though they couldn't succeed beyond a point. I was told by a senior military officer that they also instituted an inquiry against him for committing ��anti-national activities�� when Manekshaw replaced the name of a Gandhi Hall with Sardar Patel's at Wellington (though there are other more interesting stories for that inquiry having been set up).","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"Fighting on the Burma front against the Japanese in 1942, Manekshaw was almost pronounced dead when brought to Rangoon hospital with nine bullets in the lung, liver and kidneys. The military surgeon was reluctant to operate seeing the hopeless condition even though Sam was just about conscious. The surgeon asked what had happened to him. Sam replied: ��Oh, a donkey kicked.�� The surgeon decided that if a soldier could have such a sense of humour at that critical hour, he must operate to save him. Sam survived and rose to become India's eighth army chief.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"He led India to glory in 1971 when after many centuries our soldiers decisively defeated a foreign force and ensured its complete surrender. Able lieutenants always assist a leader, but the credit should always go to the commanding abilities of the captain. Sam had great colleagues in Lt. Gen. JFR Jacob and Lt. Gen J.S. Aurora. Yet it was his leadership that won the day for us.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"Manekshaw was outspoken. He literally refused to take Indira Gandhi's orders and finally had the cabinet accept his timing on when to declare war.

Any dearth of tall men with feet of clay? But the primary driving force to bestow honours on men and women has always been their principal achievements and conduct. Manekshaw too should be judged on his greater contribution to national life. In our daily lives we see ordinary people doing great deeds and becoming extraordinary.

There is no more a Kargil victory day celebration and the level of Vijay Diwas, celebrated on December 16 each year to commemorate the 1971 victory, has also been drastically scaled down. There is not a single Victory Memorial worth its glory dedicated to the Indian soldiers' bravery. The Jai Jawan Jyoti lies under the shadow of a memorial erected by the colonial masters in honour of those who fought for their empire and not for Indian freedom. And the British memorial is so gigantic and overpowering that it literally dwarfs the small memorial lit for the Indian national heroes.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"The politicians ruling our nation have myopic dreams and a shrunk vision for the great land called India but huge manoeuvring power and insatiable greed for their personal empowerment. Hence their houses are clean and ostentatious, but public hospitals stink, railway platforms are dirty and airports look like anemic bodies dating back to the 1950s famine.

History will do justice. It��s not wealth and power, but grit and spine that matters ultimately. Sam Bahadur, as Gen. Manekshaw was affectionately known, had both in abundance. The leaders who chose to stay away from giving a last salute to this brave man one last time may have huge money but that's not a factor to give them a place in history and public memory. They die a double death, one of the body and the other of infamy. Their system orders the national flag to be lowered for a third-rate corrupt politician, but the nation's bravest man was denied the honour because some bureaucrats in the defence ministry looked at Sam just like another career officer ranked at par with the Cabinet Secretary, hence undeserving of an official national mourning. The heavens would not have fallen if the President and Prime Minister had attended the last rites of our Field Marshall. But chained to 10 Janpath, the smallness couldn't rise to the Himalayan call of duty.

Krishna Menon and Gen B.M. Kaul, failed the nation during the 1947 war (remember the infamous jeep scandal involving Menon?) and after the 1962 defeat at the hands of the Chinese, Maneksahw was called to take command of the eastern sector. His first order was: ��No more withdrawals, march to the posts and recapture.�� This re-energised the demoralised troops but both Kaul and Menon tried their best to make life hell for the brave Manekshaw, though they couldn't succeed beyond a point. I was told by a senior military officer that they also instituted an inquiry against him for committing ��anti-national activities�� when Manekshaw replaced the name of a Gandhi Hall with Sardar Patel's at Wellington (though there are other more interesting stories for that inquiry having been set up).","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"Fighting on the Burma front against the Japanese in 1942, Manekshaw was almost pronounced dead when brought to Rangoon hospital with nine bullets in the lung, liver and kidneys. The military surgeon was reluctant to operate seeing the hopeless condition even though Sam was just about conscious. The surgeon asked what had happened to him. Sam replied: ��Oh, a donkey kicked.�� The surgeon decided that if a soldier could have such a sense of humour at that critical hour, he must operate to save him. Sam survived and rose to become India's eighth army chief.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"He led India to glory in 1971 when after many centuries our soldiers decisively defeated a foreign force and ensured its complete surrender.

Yet it was his leadership that won the day for us.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"Manekshaw was outspoken.

Any dearth of tall men with feet of clay? But the primary driving force to bestow honours on men and women has always been their principal achievements and conduct. Manekshaw too should be judged on his greater contribution to national life. In our daily lives we see ordinary people doing great deeds and becoming extraordinary.

There is no more a Kargil victory day celebration and the level of Vijay Diwas, celebrated on December 16 each year to commemorate the 1971 victory, has also been drastically scaled down. There is not a single Victory Memorial worth its glory dedicated to the Indian soldiers' bravery. The Jai Jawan Jyoti lies under the shadow of a memorial erected by the colonial masters in honour of those who fought for their empire and not for Indian freedom. And the British memorial is so gigantic and overpowering that it literally dwarfs the small memorial lit for the Indian national heroes.","tn":"text","tags":"span "},{"tn":"br"},{"value":"The politicians ruling our nation have myopic dreams and a shrunk vision for the great land called India but huge manoeuvring power and insatiable greed for their personal empowerment.

He died at the age of 94 at Wellington early last Friday. The only Indians who didn't mourn were the people in the UPA government.It��s still unbelievable that a government formed by Indians would be so rude and indifferent to the greatest military leader India has produced post-independence, to use the words of former army chief General V.P. Malik. Rare are the heroes of a nation admired by commoners as their idol, inspiration and icon. Manekshaw was one such hero India always looked up to with pride and excitement. A government that decided to lower the national flag for three days as a mark of mourning when the Pope died didn't send its defence minister to attend the funeral of Field Marshall Manekshaw; nor did it allow the other two service chiefs to attend.Manekshaw was the only living Field Marshal, was listed on the active list of army officers as number one and hence drew a full salary. He participated in action in the Second World War, in the 1947 war with Pakistan, the ��62 war with China, and the Pakistan wars of 1965 and 1971. Manekshaw received the Military Cross, Padma Bhushan and Padma Vibhushan. Above all, he provided hope when light was dimming and courage when disillusionment was setting in. He was utterly contemptuous of politicians and often spoke fearing no one. He was proven right about them. The Field Marshall became a legend, leaving behind the dwarves occupying South Block as dustbin material for history.A nation that can't honour its heroes can't produce them either. A Bharat Ratna can��t be given to persons like Manekshaw. In fact till this date no soldier has been given the highest award though they won four wars for us. We hardly see a politician whose child is serving in the forces. If you know some, kindly pass on the information to me.The people ruling the nation today are infested with a slavish mentality �� taking orders sheepishly and trying to preserve their wealth and position. History will do justice. It��s not wealth and power, but grit and spine that matters ultimately. Sam Bahadur, as Gen. Manekshaw was affectionately known, had both in abundance. The leaders who chose to stay away from giving a last salute to this brave man one last time may have huge money but that's not a factor to give them a place in history and public memory. They die a double death, one of the body and the other of infamy. Their system orders the national flag to be lowered for a third-rate corrupt politician, but the nation's bravest man was denied the honour because some bureaucrats in the defence ministry looked at Sam just like another career officer ranked at par with the Cabinet Secretary, hence undeserving of an official national mourning. The heavens would not have fallen if the President and Prime Minister had attended the last rites of our Field Marshall. But chained to 10 Janpath, the smallness couldn't rise to the Himalayan call of duty. The government failed but the nation rose to say: ��Sam Bahadur Zindabad.�� ","@type":"NewsArticle","mainEntityOfPage":"https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tarun-vijay/the-right-view/saluting-sam-bahadur/articleshow/3179920.cms","inLanguage":"en","headline":"Saluting Sam Bahadur","keywords":"Home News,Home Latest News, News, Times Of India, Latest news","url":"https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tarun-vijay/the-right-view/saluting-sam-bahadur/articleshow/3179920.cms","datePublished":"2008-06-30T12:54:00+05:30","dateModified":"2008-06-30T12:54:00+05:30","description":"Home News: Sam Manekshaw was the name of the hero India saluted.
