| Summary/Abstract |
That as a nation we are obsessed with ground-based tactics was in ample evidence at the annual press conference of the chief of air staff (CAS) Air Chief Marshal NAK Browne. A week before the 81st Indian Air Force day celebrations, the CAS and his staff had probably burnt the midnight oil to take on some hard-hitting questions from the media on the receding possibility of signing the ambitious Rafale fighter deal; depleting force levels; poor state of Indian Air Force (IAF) ground infrastructure, especially in remote border areas; allegations of nepotism on certain contracts and corruption on others; slow pace of modernisation of air defence assets; IAF's obstinacy on reforms in higher defence management; and inadequacy of ideas on creating a cogent deterrence for the threat from the east. Not once during their midnight confabulations would they have imagined, that all these efforts would come to a nought.
Because very few in the assembled gathering of the journalists wanted to ask the air force chief any question on the air force. Everyone wanted to know - repeatedly, question after question, in various combinations and permutations - about Indian Army's counter-infiltration (CI) operation in the Keran sector of north-west Kashmir. Kindled by exaggerations and fanned by rumours, the so-called CI operation in the thick forests of Keran was likened to the occupation of the Indian Army posts in the Kargil sector (northeast Kashmir), nearly 14 years ago. Even senior journalists, some with over 30 years of experience covering the Indian military, had started to write that a repeat of Kargil was underway with the Pakistan Army's irregulars having occupied the Indian territory.
