There is something so fundamentally defective about this kind of statement, and mentality behind.

Everytime Army’s top brass is constructively criticised for legit reasons, people bring in the *aam fauji *at the border argument as an emotional blackmail. It’s that kind of emotional blackmailing which has made army see itself as demi-Gods, powerful above all, but accountable to none. And whoever dares raise a point about accountability and transparency from that institution is called traitor and public enemy number one. The country has turned into a garrison state because of this a ‘civilian will always be inferior to a fauji’ mindset.

Can you delink an aam fauji from his general? Do you think Jang Group constructively criticized ISI in Hamid Mir’s case? The verdict was announced even before the FIR was registered.

There is no question of nurturing any demi-gods, be it Army or media. That’s my point. As I said in my post earlier, we cannot barter one sacred cow for another.
