Indian Military: Securing and Safeguarding National Boundaries
Dear Brigadier Kamboj,
I read the account sent my Sunil Arya. There is still some doubt about when (25 or 26 October?) and where (Srinagar or Jammu?) the Instrument of Accession was signed by Maharaja Hari Singh.
I am giving below a link from the draft Chapter 2 of the Corps History, dealing with the 1947-48 operations. I would welcome clarifications or comments.
The anecdote concerning Manekshaw and Indira Gandhi during 1971 has been related many times. I am giving an extract from Manekshaw's biography that forms part of my book LEADERSHIP IN THE INDIAN A RMY- BIOGRAPHIES OF TWELVE SODLIERS. The draft was vetted by the Field Marshal in 1996.
Regards,
VK Singh (Maj Gen, Veteran)
