Former Major General GD Bakshi has expressed anger against the Central Government and the US over the death of an Indian sailor in the Oman Sea. He said that three Indian citizens were killed in attacks on three ships in just four days. There was a strong reaction from the Indian governmentSo did not appear to be. “Indian lives are precious,” he said, adding that three Indian families are now in mourning but the country’s government has not said anything about it..
Questioning the role of the United States, the former major general said, on one hand, the United States is talking about imposing a 50 percent tariff on India, while on the other hand, it is threatening to increase the tariff up to 500 percent to buy cheap oil from Russia. Not all of thatFour years after India paid for a hundred engines for the light fighter, it has received very little. Initially only two engines were supplied and later five more engines were supplied only after the matter was raised at the Prime Ministerial level, affecting the capabilities of the Indian Air Force..
He also expressed doubts about military action on the ship. He claimed that the US military used missiles targeting the ship’s engines. Caution is usually the first thing given in such situationsConversations are saved and the ship is seized if necessary. But this direct attack without warning is a serious matter for which the US must be held accountable.
The former military officer clarified that the death of three Indians cannot be ignored under any circumstances. The Government of India should take a strict stand in this regard and demand adequate compensation for the families of the deceased sailors. The life of any Indian citizen is very precious and no government can remain silent on this sensitive issue and pretend that everything is normal. On the one hand, the US claims to be India’s friend, while on the other hand, it is causing the deaths of Indians.It has raised a big question mark on the relationship between the two countries.
