quite a revelation. On the other hand, national media earlier reported that
due to fear of ULFA those Assamese serving in armed forces in Kashmir etc tell
neighbors etc that they work in banks as officers/clerks - so that their family
may not be harrassed.

OUR CORRESPONDENT
Barbora speaks at the media conference in Shillong. Picture by Eastern
Projections
Shillong, April 2: The indifference of successive governments and
disillusionment with the hypocritical conduct of seniors have forced a large
number of officers from the Northeast to quit the services.
That was Air Marshal P.K. Barboras first observation after he assumed charge
as air officer commanding-in-chief of the Eastern Air Command.
Addressing a news conference in Shillong, Barbora said several efficient young
officers of the Northeast were leaving the services because they were highly
sentimental and could not cope with the hypocritical attitude of their
seniors.
The indifferent attitude of the earlier governments towards the Northeast,
coupled with a feeling of alienation, have led the defence forces to a
situation where it has a negligible number of personnel from the Northeast.
Earlier governments tried to use the same yardstick for all problems in the
region and that led to chaos, he said, adding that the situation was changing
gradually.
Barbora was born in Shillong and also did his schooling here. He was
commissioned as a fighter pilot and fought the 1971 war for liberation of
Bangladesh.
He succeeds F.H. Major, who has gone on to become the Air Chief Marshal, and
is the first officer of the Air Force from Shillong and the Northeast to become
air marshal. The rank is equivalent to that of a three-star army general.
The officer said modernisation of airfields like the one at Tezpur in Assam
was on his list of priorities, as was the implementation of the Force
Multipliers Programme. Sophisticated missiles are to be added to the IAFs
arsenal under this programme
