This response dated 02/03 December, 2009 does not suggest that no citation was initiated to consider the Award of Vir Chakra Gallantry Award. However, it carefully conceals the fact that the Military Operation specifically pertains to Operation Eagle for which the Rules of Engagement were prescribed by the Prime Minister of India and not by Indian Army.This response from Military Secretary’s Branch Ministry of Defence(Army) categorically claims that it had not seen the Citation that recommended my name for the award of Vir Chakra Gallantry Award. The letter also carefully avoids any reference to name the Military Operation called Operation Eagle which was executed by the orders issued by the Prime Minister’s Office.Shri. S. Kumar, Deputy Director, Military Secretary’s Branch(X), Ministry of Defence(Army) is not telling the truth in this letter. If truth is concealed, it cannot serve the purpose of providing Justice. Indian Army must accept the truth. The truth is Indian Army or the Ministry of Defence have not issued the Rules of Engagement for the Military Operation called Operation Eagle. This Battle of 1971 was fought under a Battle Plan and Rules of Engagement issued by the Prime Minister’s office. The Rules for this War include the benefit of receiving Gallantry Awards as recommended. There is no time stipulated in this Battle Plan for receiving the Award. Indian Army cannot change the Rules of this Battle Plan for Operation Eagle.Shri. S.
