This is a long rant, not an expert analysis. Treat it as such. The current controversy about surgical strikes by Indian Army against Bakistanis is getting even more interesting. After Uri attacks, I wondered if India would strike back or just keep quiet like after Pathankot attacks. I had hopes that India would retaliate but […]

Meghalaya Trip – Shillong Air Force Museum Pictures
These are some pictures I took in Shillong Air Force Museum. There was a lot more other stuff, but this is all I’m going to upload for now and is also the more interesting of the lot.
Pinaka – Chapter 8
While I was busy with tracking down Major and moving out to mainland when we found him, the conditions had grown more serious.
