NewsX: General V.K Singh's secret intelligence unit raises political storm

  • 5 years ago
The former Army Chief, General V.K. Singh, had set up Technical Services Division, a secret intelligence unit, and misused secret funds to try and topple the Omar Abdullah government, and to try and change the line of succession in the Army's brass.
The report sent the political temperatures soaring and a slugfest erupted between the Congress and the BJP. While the BJP questioned the timing of the report and cautioned the UPA government against "undermining" institutions such as the defence forces, the Congress strongly refuted the charge that the report was part of a vendetta. The BJP claimed that General (retired) Singh was being "hounded" for sharing the platform with its prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi at a recent rally of ex-servicemen in Haryana.
