In my humble opinion perhaps the Navy should consider getting rid of the “bright yellow” parachutes, which could literally render them sitting ducks. On another note, perhaps it’s time for the army to stop worrying about our so called “permanent” and in the recent past a hallucinatory enemy and start doing something about the Taliban who are the real killers and plunderers of our country.

@umair your patriotism is misplaced. The arm force need to bring their house in India. Pakistan is the only country where arm force has a country for itself. I hope you get my drift.
