Chief of Army Staff Gen. VK Singh: Dr. Swamy writes to PM to intervene and honour the record of Army Adjutant General
January 14, 2012.
Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Prime Minister of India,
South Block,
New Delhi.
Dear Prime Minister:
I write this letter regarding the matter of retirement of the Chief of Army Staff Gen V.K. Singh as decided by your Government.
I am constrained to take up this matter in view of the fact that Gen Singh not only has an impeccable battle-field record but he has also earned an extremely good name in the ranks of the army and outside as a person who is ready to take steps to clean up corruption whenever and wherever it has come to his notice in the army.
All the facts are known to you and I believe they are contained in a statutory complaint made by Gen Singh himself with all the relevant documents in the Ministry of Defence. The Raksha Mantri Mr. Antony gave me an appointment and I had met him to discuss this matter. But from what he told me it appears that for the resolution of the matter it is not in his hands and that is why since you are the Prime Minister, I am writing this letter for I have a deep respect for you and for your personal integrity.
