Depicting calm and composure - CRPF Jawans!


Let me set the tone at the offset.. I express, deep anguish and anger.
The other day, saw a video, where our CRPF boys were being heckled, kicked, pushed by the so-called 'mis-guided' youths of Kashmir -
Reason was - The Jawans were just doing their jobs!
The Jawans didn't react to their provocations - some may claim it as weakness, but I would say it was one of their greatest strengths depicted; Hats-off to them for keeping their calm and composure...
A bullet through and through - would have easily put the valley in spiral of violence for weeks.

I would slightly digress from the topic here -
Let's rewind the clock to November 8 - when high currency notes were banned in India.It was a tough phase for everyone and it was during this phase some people started drawing ridiculous comparisons as:
   "If Jawans can stand on the border for 10 hours, why can't you stand in the ATM queue?"
Personally; I consider this as the world's weirdest ever drawn analogy.

It didn't stop here, there was equally gibberish counters to the above analogy, such as:
   "We haven't forced the Jawans to join the Army, its their choice; If they have chosen this then standing on the border is part of their Job"
Trust, me, I know, people who are very well educated and were very vocal about the job part.

Wondering how this whole thing is related to the CRPF Jawan assault?
Short answer is, Yes, it is relatedthe counter part of the analogy is.
My question to those people who were very vocal about job description of the Jawan is:
Is it that; their job is to get kicked, heckled or pushed - just because they are performing their duties??
We all are doing some or other job; Imagine this:
As a corporate guy, you have your predefined job description, what if:
     One fine day, you reach your office and your client/boss/business decides to kick and push you; not only this, they further decide to stream it live and put it on social media?

As a student your job is to go to college and study, what if:
     You reach college, before you enter the premise you are heckled, kicked and pushed absolutely for NO reason.

As a doctor your job is to treat the patients, what if:
     Before you enter the operation theater, you are reprimanded, kicked and pushed - how well will  your operation go?


There can be endless examples...

The point being where are those people now, who were trying to win the arguments with their baloneys? I bet, none of them will have the courage to show up and at-least condemn it .

To me, clearly, this is not the job of the Jawans!

Now back to those scoundrels, who were assaulting the Jawans....
Just remember, It's the Army who turns out for help when natural calamities strike the valley. 
Oh and don't forget, the surgical strikes.

Also, these scoundrels who are talking about 'Azaadi';
I would say -
'Aazaadi hi hai, warna galti se pados me chale gaye, to bolna bhi mushkil ho jaaygea'
[Do a google search -  '23-year-old student of Abdul Wali Khan University']

There have been strong reactions from the different communities (see one from Gautam G)


I am sure the police and the Army will respond accordingly.

BTW, below picture depicts a brilliant idea to avoid the stone-pelter thugs; which didn't go down well for Omar Abdullah and other human rights hypocrites.

Well where you Mr Hypocrite, when the Jawans were being kicked?
I would say for Mr Hypocrite - real worry isn't the young man, but it the business - Aaj phatthar bhi nahi pheka gaya aur paise bhi dena pagdega.
