A Traitor and Master Crook
V.K.Singh : A Traitor and master crook. General V.K.Singh took charge as the 26th chief of staff of the Indian Army on March 31, 2010. His tenure as the chief of Indian Army can be considered as the darkest chapter in the history of Indian Army because of his erratic ways, unethical behavior and the controversies he created. There are many people who still consider him as an honest person who is being castigated as a villain only because of his blunt nature. But nothing is farther from the truth. The anti-national traits of this venomous character are thoroughly exposed in this article. Controversy over V.K.Singh’s DoB Six months after becoming the Army chief, General V.K.Singh raked up a controversy over his date of birth which was already settled in the past to his satisfaction. The controversy first arose in 2002, when General Singh brought his differing age records maintained by Military Secretary’s branch and Adjutant General’s branch to the notice of his superiors and sought for a correction. While the Military Secretary’s branch showed May 10, 1950 as his date of birth (DoB), the Adjutant General’s branch showed his DoB as May 10, 1951. Singh’s NDA records showed his DoB as May 10, 1950, where as his matriculation certificate showed it as May, 10, 1951. Singh’s attempts to change his DoB to 1951 was however rejected by successive military secretaries, mainly because of the well-laid out procedures in the Army for any such correction/change in the date of birth.
