The Observer Reliance Foundation( ORF ) Institute for Strategic Studies website carries the transcript of the 30th Bhimsen Sachar Memorial Lecture delivered in New Delhi by its President General (retired) Ved Prakash Malik a former Chief of Staff of the Indian Army. This document is astonishing because Indian generals are not known for open criticism of the political leadership and senior bureaucracy.

...If the Indian generals have started making important statements on political and policy matters, is it not endangering the Indian democracy? This where the American relationship hurts a country; they deal with a government and at the same time they deal with their armed forces in parallel. And that gives encouragement to the generals to come up and start giving policy statements. I think it’s a moment to worry for India that their generals have become so belligerent that they have started issuing foreign policy statements.
