India is not ready for this kind of high-quality journalism. People still prefer cheap street fight styled debates. SG is extremely underrated. Long live SG!

SG is not participating when Vikas karate and boxing tournament. Why reply me sg Bhai . SG also came for training ... I think u are new recruit 😉

[@eswardasaka3389]

Thank you Shekar Sir! The kind of efforts you and your team put is really amazing. Frankly if someone is planning to prepare for civil exam, I would suggest them to listen to you. I'm too old for that 😅. Just saying the current generation will definitely benefit. Thank you Sir!

[@satyasingal]

Interesting and valuable history which, unfortunately, does not find space in syllabus of history classes from middle schools to Masters Degrees. The nation should be made aware of such stories. Thanks Shekhar ji for narrating this hair raising story.

[@ss10483]

Shekar Gupta can sell so many interesting stories to Bollywood since it is running out of stories

SFF is one of the lesser known units in the IA yet so important that it directly comes under the supervision of R&AW. Thank you Shekhar Ji for covering this.

It’s quite common in Tibetan community that one or more family members are in SFF. As for my family. My dad s ex SFF. 4 of my family member are currently serving the nation. Excluding my cousin… if I start counting it will be a lot… just like my family…. All our neighbours have similar stories.

Let alone ssf,nehru didn't wanted to keep even the three services of India,but the most surprising thing ever happened was that the Nobel peace prize committee never thought of even considering nehru for awarding this prize for not maintaining armed forces, and the blunder of not keeping and maintaining armed forces resulted into china still occupying aksai region of India which according to pandit ji was useless barren land but is now found to be rich in zinc and other various valuable metals deposit worth billions of dollars for generations to come.
