[edit] misleading link

I move the Time.COM link to "references". Cause it ONLY mentioned the exact size of pmf but NOT pmf's size being the largest in the world. For example, according to "U.S. Annual Report on the Military Power of PRC, 2005", the size of China's militia, one of the two components of her paramilitary forces[1] , is at lease 10-Million strong. We need accuracy, but not nationalism!

[edit] FA drive

To meet WP:WIAFA, I consider the following necessary:

Creation of a "see also" topics template
Rename the article to "Indian armed forces" (Q: Why was this moved from "Military of India?")

A: It happened here with a cut and past move. Like Military of the United States this should be moved back to Military of India for consistency. - Ganeshk (talk) 00:20, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Detailed yet succinct descriptions of the army, navy, air force, etc. Care must be taken to avoid overflow - leave most stuff for the forks.
"Challenges" section - what problems, modernisation schemes, purchases of military equipment, training, governance issues?
WP:NPOV - no patriotism or nationalism must be expressed in this article.
Please take guidance from Kargil War, an FA.

The expansion is the most daunting task, it would be very helpful if most people who voted for this article concentrate on that first. Nobleeagle (Talk) 00:03, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fixing cut and past move

I will try to fix the cut and past move now. Please hold off on editing this page. - Ganeshk (talk) 00:29, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

I quit. How_to_fix_cut_and_paste_moves is too complicated. Will visit back later. It's all back to where it was. Please continue. - Ganeshk (talk) 00:56, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Associated mail articles

I found many associated mail articles also require upgradation of contents including Strategic Forces Command and Indian Paramilitary Forces. --Bhadani 14:49, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV Check

The entire Article, with his numerous remarks about Indias importance, greatness and modern army seems to be a bit out of the picture. The Indian Army may be a force that should not be ignored, but its certainly not comparable to western nations, especially the US or the UK, especially not the Navy (the mentioned Carrier is over 40 years old). This may change in the next centuries, but as of today, this is a bit over the top.

--Kelnor 11:13, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

I would amend your statement, as centuries is a laughable time period to use, especially when global power can shift in a matter of decades, while India's power is not comparable to that of the US today, it is widely agreed that it is a rising power, with its rapidly growing economy.
