Quotes
- “You know I have no political ambitions. My job is to command my army and see that it is kept as a first rate instrument. Your job is to look after the country.”
- “The status of the field marshal of the country or the equivalent has to be unique for the nation.”
- “If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or is a Gurkha.”
- “I wonder whether those of our political masters who have been put in charge of the defence of the country can distinguish a mortar from a motor; a gun from a howitzer; a guerrilla from a gorilla, although a great many resemble the latter.”
- “There will be no withdrawal without written orders and these orders shall never be issued.”
- “Then I guess Pakistan would have won (the 1971 war).”
