Fmr RAW Chief Dulat, Fmr Army Chief Malik: Govt Wrong to Use Pension Threat to Gag Retired Officers

In two separate interviews to Karan Thapar for The Wire totalling 30-minutes, which will be presented as a single package and go up on The Wire’s website between 5.00 p.m. and 6.00 p.m. today (3/6), Mr. Dulat accepted what the government has done with what sounded like resignation. “I have spent 40 years in service and when the government decides it is right, so be it … it’s not easy to challenge the government … if government says stop writing, so be it”. However, he agreed that the amendment is “very sad” and also added at another point “it’s not right”.
In a separate interview, Gen. Malik said he looks at the new amendment from the point of view of a historian. He said when ITBP officers write about naxals or naxalism they provide insight and knowledge. He said this amendment would “inhibit” them and “frustrate” them and as a result the Indian people and the country will lose out.
