The bugle has signalled command, discipline and military tradition for over a century but its makers have quietly remained in the background. Meerut-based Aiman Farhat shares how her family has been crafting bugles since 1885, supplying India's armed forces for generations. We explore the legacy, the sound, and why preserving this 139-year-old connection to the Indian Army still matters today.
With the release of the Farhan Akhtar-starrer 120 Bahadur, the spotlight returns to the Battle of Rezang La -- one of the bravest last stands in military history. But the 1962 India-China war was much more than just one battle. It was a geopolitical storm involving a "Forward Policy," a distracted America, and a political leadership caught off guard. In this deep-dive episode, host Dev Goswami and national security expert Sandeep Unnithan will peel back the layers of the 1962 conflict. They discuss the tactical realities of Major Shaitan Singh's Charlie Company, the mystery of the "missing" Indian Air Force, how and why the Indian Army was handed a solid defeat, the strange connection between the Himalayas and the Cuban Missile Crisis, and, of course, whether this indeed was Nehru's 'Himalayan Blunder'. In this episode, Dev and Sandeep discuss: - The Real Rezang La: How 120 men of the 13 Kumaon held off thousands of Chinese troops at 18,000 feet without winter gear. - The McMahon Line: Who drew it, why it was flawed, and why a "thick line on a map" led to war. - The Geopolitics: Did the Panchsheel Agreement lull Nehru into a false sense of security? What was the "Forward Policy"? - The Cuban Connection: How Mao Zedong timed the attack to coincide with the Cuban Missile Crisis to ensure US silence. - Classified History: What is the Henderson Brooks-Bhagat Report, and why does the Indian government refuse to declassify it 60 years later? - The Chinese Perspective: Why Beijing calls this a "Self-Defence Counterattack" and why they unilaterally withdrew after winning. Whether or not you plan to watch 120 Bahadur, this is your comprehensive crash course on the war that changed India forever. Tune in! Produced by Taniya Dutta Sound mixed by Rohan Bharti

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. Modi Skips ASEAN Summit as Trump Heads to Malaysia Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the ASEAN Summit virtually, skipping what's being billed as the largest gathering of world leaders in ASEAN history. The decision, officially linked to Chhath Puja, comes as US President Donald Trump lands in Kuala Lumpur in person. Over 30 leaders, including China's Li Qiang and Brazil's Lula, are attending. With India-US ties strained by Trump's steep 50% tariffs on Indian goods, Modi's absence avoids an awkward meet without a trade breakthrough. Talks to reduce tariffs to 15–16% are ongoing, but India is treading carefully amid delicate diplomacy — balancing QUAD and BRICS ties at once. Kuala Lumpur, meanwhile, is under lockdown with 16,000 officers on duty. Siddaramaiah's Son Upsets Karnataka's Succession Equation Yathindra Siddaramaiah has thrown a curveball into Karnataka politics by backing minister Satish Jarkiholi as his father's successor — sidelining Deputy CM DK Shivakumar. With the Congress government hitting its halfway mark, talk of a “November revolution” is gaining traction. For Shivakumar, once seen as next in line, the message is clear: the race is no longer his alone. Indian Army Goes Tech-First India's Army is arming up for the future — signing a ₹2,770-crore deal with Bharat Forge and Adani's PLR Systems for 4.25 lakh modern carbines. New drone platoons and elite commando battalions are rolling out, while US-made Javelin missiles are being added. The shift marks a major leap from manpower-heavy to AI-driven combat readiness. Meta Cuts 600 Jobs in AI Reality Check Meta's AI dream just hit turbulence — 600 layoffs at its AI Superintelligence Labs. Despite a $14 billion spree to hire top AI talent, several big names have already quit. CEO Alexandr Wang says “leaner is faster,” but the move reveals internal tension between expensive new hires and a thinning support base. Trump Slaps Russia with Oil Sanctions, Eyes India Next President Trump has sanctioned Russia's oil giants Rosneft and Lukoil, warning Putin to end the Ukraine war. The move also turns the heat on India, with Trump insisting Modi promised to cut Russian oil imports — claims New Delhi hasn't confirmed. The message from Washington: stop buying Russian oil or face crushing tariffs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us a textWhat does it take to break barriers as one of the first 300 women officers in the Indian Army? Major Pallavi Shivanna shares her remarkable journey from a small-town girl in Mysore to becoming an Army officer, leadership coach, and mental health advocate.Growing up in a lower-middle-class family as the first graduate among her siblings, Pallavi's path was shaped by a TV serial that sparked her desire to wear a uniform. With characteristic determination, she navigated her way to the Services Selection Board interview in Allahabad—a two-day journey she undertook alone despite never having traveled so far before. Her authenticity during the interview secured her position, marking the beginning of a career that would challenge and transform her.The challenges weren't primarily physical but mental and emotional. As one of the few women officers, she faced resistance from soldiers unaccustomed to taking orders from women. Rather than accepting this treatment, she directly confronted situations, learning that "unless you take charge of things in your life, how you want to be treated, the world will treat you."Through career transitions, motherhood, and periods of self-doubt, Major Pallavi discovered the courage to seek professional help—a step she now advocates for others to take. "Seeking help is the most difficult thing, but it's the most courageous," she explains, working to remove the stigma around therapy. Her approach to mental clarity involves pausing to reflect, stepping back to analyze, and seeking guidance from mentors when needed.Major Pallavi challenges us to reevaluate our perceptions of women in leadership. "We need to treat everybody as a human being first. I'm an individual first, my gender comes next," she asserts, advocating for financial empowerment and independence for women while also educating boys to respect strong, independent women.As she prepares to launch her own organization focused on wellness, her message resonates with powerful simplicity: "Love yourself, accept yourself as you are, and never compare yourself to others. That's one of the wastiest things in the world because you're unique."Have you purchased the copy of Inspire Someone Today, yet - Give it a go geni.us/istbook Available on all podcast platforms, including, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify

Ashok Atluri founded Zen Technologies in 1993, bootstrapping from Hyderabad at a time when India was importing 70% of its defence equipment and private players contributed just 5% of procurements. It took Zen five years to win its first contract from the Indian Army in 1998.Today, the company builds simulators and anti-drone systems, and has grown its market cap from ₹40 crore to over ₹13,000 crore.Ashok shares that India needs to make it easier for private, self-funded R&D companies to succeed in defense tech and why the focus should be in building technology with India's own IP.

Brigadier (Retd.) Surinder Singh, SM, VSM, commanded the 121 (Independent) Infantry Brigade—better known as the Kargil Brigade—during the 1999 Kargil War. He has long argued that he repeatedly warned higher headquarters about Pakistani intrusions and intelligence lapses, claims he says were later suppressed or ignored.During the conflict he was removed from command, and in the war's aftermath he was dismissed from service—becoming the only Indian Army officer sacked without a general court-martial—over allegations related to handling classified documents, a decision he has contested for years.A decorated officer (Sena Medal and Vishisht Seva Medal), Singh has continued to seek an official reappraisal of the Kargil record; in 2025 he petitioned India's Supreme Court for a fresh probe and corrections to the war history.

Inside India's Fight Against Naxalism | Is This the End of Red Terror? | Ft. Sandeep Unnithan In this deep-dive episode of In Our Defence, veteran defence journalist Sandeep Unnithan joins host Dev Goswami to unpack India's decades-long battle with Left Wing Extremism (LWE) — often called Naxalism or Red Terror — and the recent decisive push to eradicate it by March 2026. Dev and Sandeep explore the evolution of the Naxal movement from its origins in Naxalbari in 1967 to its spread across India's infamous “Red Corridor”, and the multi-pronged strategy that has brought the insurgency to its lowest levels in decades. Key topics include: The historic neutralisation of CPI (Maoist) General Secretary Basavaraju in Operation Black Forest The spike in encounters and surrenders in 2024–25 Why counter-insurgency in jungles is as deadly — and complex — as high-tech border warfare.
