In memory of Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji “Sam Bahadur” Jamshedji Manekshaw

In memory of Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji “Sam Bahadur” Jamshedji Manekshaw MC (April 3, 1914 – June 27, 2008) was of Parsi origin (Zorastrian who came to India). In a long career spanning nearly four decades, Manekshaw rose to be the 8th chief of staff of the Indian Army in 1969 and under his command, Indian forces concluded a campaign by getting involved and siding with the Bengali’s later to be called the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. Bangladesh, a region separated by more than 1000 kms from Pakistan, later gained independence after this battle.

The politicians are aware as to how awards etc conferred and with motive that’s why they do not feel honoured to pay condolence even to the highest awaradee of the country as happened.

The signing of in the condolence book by Defence Minister A K Antony and three services chiefs is really a face saving exercise on their part on Monday, June 30, 2008 after the controversy erupted over their absence at his State funeral in Udhagamandalam on Friday.
