Some of the interesting ones are:-

200: Double Celebration: One year of Blogging and 200th Post
Air Marshal’s Perspective
(Candid and to the point – काम की बात)
Ranked 13th in the list of Top 25 Indian Defence Blogs and Websites
This blog was started in the month of September 2020. It has been one year since then, with 200 posts.
Enjoyed researching topics related to defence, security, geo-politics, technology, leadership and management etc. The posts were interspersed with some humour and quotes.
Tried to live up to the motto of the blog – “Candid and to the point – काम की बात”. Most of the posts are short ones (two to three pages), covering the essence of the topic in bullet form.
The credit for starting the blog goes to my course mate and friend Col Murali. He provided me the space, encouraged me and held my hand initially.
Credit also goes to another course mate Vicky Sheorey for getting me all the equipment needed for video conference and recordings.
Sincere Thanks to all the subscribers and readers for the encouragement.
