I am married to an Army officer , when I got married to a ‘soldier’. While my husband reported for duty soon afterwards, I sat at home, my heart beats fast with nervous anticipation of the news related to terrorism I watched on TV,  many events and other exciting stuff that made for the “royal life” of Army officers and their wives (which Media shows in TV as part of the happy events and activities in promotional ad). But in reality  life in the Army was no ball-room dancing.  It is very demanding and comes with its pleasures as well as pains. A soldier has dignity on its own for his UNIFORM a respect in his eyes. The Indian Armed force uniform, their Rank and Designation has always been  respected because it is earned by years of hard work and their sacrifices, sacrifices that includes their loved ones support, cooperation and their sacrifices too.  Every soldier carries a sense of pride and dignity that every  Indian Armed Force person wears to show their commitment and loyalty to our beloved country. Indian soldiers are abide by the rule of social media but few people who are not associated with Indian armed forces taking advantages of this and using  tag as name of soldier on their YouTube, Instagram accounts  to have more views and likes to earn money for personal benefits they pretend to be soldiers and taking privileges and salutes which belongs only to soldiers. when we the families of soldiers raised our voices against this punishable offense those people called you tubers and influencers in social media  bully us portray the families and wives as  the one who are using the resources of Armed Forces they are portraying negative images of armed forces  and sometimes they use the sentiments of the people connected to Indian armed forces  and use Army stories for personal gains of views they even name their account as  ------- SOLDIER,  REAL SOLDIER pretend to be an officer and misguide youths to give suggestions how to join force. Therefore, my request to honorable Prime minister of India please make strict rules against those  persons who are not associated with Indian armed forces and can not use word as soldier on their personal social media accounts, prohibit the use  uniforms, designations of Indian Armed forces by the people on  social media accounts. I request to all Indians please wisely choose to whom you want to follow. Indian Army and other forces has own website to guide  youths of India.  please do not follow fake soldiers on youtube and instagram. STOP USING FAKE IDENTITY AND UNIFORM OF INDIAN ARMED FORCES SOLDIERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA FOR YOUR PERSONAL GAINS.

A request from a wife of a soldier.
