Which army officer was the one who “slapped” Nehru in front of everyone? by Akash Adhikary

Disclaimer—It was a metaphorical slap.

After independence, Nehru appointed General Lockhart, British army personnel, as the chief of the Indian Army.

After a year, when the credibility of Gen. Lockhart was questioned, he resigned.

So, Nehru called a meeting along with the top security personnel and the leadership of the country.

He again wanted to appoint some British personnel as chief of the Indian army.

He said—

Since Gen. Lockhart is has resigned, we need to point a new army chief. And I think it is better to appoint a British man because we don’t have a capable and experienced Army man in our country.

His statement hurt the army people who were there. Of course, it would because there were many capable army officers sitting.

Then a brave, bold man stood up and said—

“We also don’t have a man enough experience to lead our nation. Shouldn’t we appoint someone from Britain as our prime minister?”

So, yeah, it was a tight, metaphoric slap for insulting the Indian Army Officers.

The man was Thakur Nathu Singh Rathore

He served as Division Commander in Burma during World War II, and he was a key person in India-Pakistan 1947 war.

In 1947, he was offered the position of Commander-in-chief of the Indian Army.

He declined the position saying—General K. M. Cariappa is my senior and more eligible than me; He should be the chief.

In 1951, he was appointed as the commander of the Eastern Army.

Indians Politely Decline Taste Of Pilgrims’ World-Famous Homemade Smallpox Casserole Culture ·from the Babylon Bee

PLYMOUTH COLONY — The world’s first Thanksgiving holiday reportedly ended with hurt feelings as the local natives appeared to politely decline a serving of the Pilgrims’ world-famous homemade smallpox casserole.

Members of the local Wampanoag Tribe who graciously accepted the Pilgrims’ offer to break bread together appeared strangely uninterested in the Pilgrims’ world-famous homemade smallpox casserole and declined to even try it.

“Wow, they won’t even try it? So rude,” Jeffrey Pilgrim said, shaking his head in disbelief. “They don’t know what they’re missing.”

Although polite in their demeanor, the Indian peoples’ refusal of the homemade smallpox casserole offended Mrs. Jill Pilgrim, who had slaved over it for hours in the kitchen.

“Why don’t they want to try my casserole? They’re so savage!” she said in a moment of frustration. “Don’t they know how hard I worked on it? We don’t even have ovens, it was very hard to make.”

Squanto, an Indian who served as interpreter during the meal, attempted to smooth things over by explaining his people were trying to cut back on smallpox, but this did little to encourage the civilized Pilgrims who knew better than to not try someone’s dish.

“I tried the weird corn thing, the least they can do is have a little smallpox casserole,” noted John Pilgrim. “So uncivilized.”

At publishing time, the Indians eventually succumbed to the Pilgrims’ passive aggressive bullying and tried the casserole.
