- This is an extract from a speech by Field Marshal Sam Maneckshaw of the Indian Army, highlighting the importance of moral courage for leaders. The context given in the speech is of the events during the Indo Pak war of 1971 where the Field Marshal displayed moral courage by stating the facts and not just succumb to being a yes man.

This reminds me of Dr Kalam, who said his favourite character from the Mahabharata was not Arjuna, nor Yudhishthir, nor Krishna. "My favourite character from the Mahabharata is Vidur, for he possessed the courage to speak truth to authority." Sam Manekshaw was no different. A charismatic man who played a crucial role in ensuring the stability and security of a young, independent India.

India needs more men like the Late Field Marshall Maneckshaw in all aspects of Indias Administrative service.

west Pakroaches and eastern Bongs are artificial garbage that will eliminate themselves eventually. India will always remain.
India existed before Muhammad and India will remain after people forget Muhammad.
In all fields? I think all Indians should be like him. Morally courageous. Problem solved. No corruption.
We needed a PM who gave Army Chief confidence to not only speak with full freedom, but who had full freedom afterwards to tell the story, without any repercussions. Of course, as a leader IG realised the truth in Army Chief’s statement and heeded his advise, that’s why she was able to bifurcate Pakistan despite tremendous opposition from US & China. She checkmated both, by signing a security pact with USSR during the interregnum.
That will result in Pakistan or Myanmar for you.... Army has to be under civilian leadership or else you get kings in Armed uniforms. But vice versa political leaders should respect the professional leadership and expertise of military.
Well said.. good observation l.
Well said good observation.
Wake up to the reality
But the price india paid is still sufferings banks nationalized airlines nationalized corruption went rampant performance poor, unbearable losses in banks and foundation for scams. Refugees that crossed over never went back, nobody could dare to turn them out since then infiltrators made daily routine. India became dharmshala Russians forced to tamper constitution.
The last line of “my wife had enough money” is the most important one On a very serious note. Only a man with zero incentives can have “moral courage” to speak the truth or mince no words
No, probably partially true.... A yes man will say yes if he has ambitions and dont want to upset leadership.... Getting dismissed as a coward is a loss of honour worst than death for any military leader and irrespective of money taking that risk is called supreme courage and trust in his professional knowledge.
Moral courage is moral courage irrespective of one has money or not...his wife having money was only a joke....this man had spine to speak his mind knowing the facts before him as a skilled professional.
@@StanleyRaman you are correct, but he is too. It is much much easier to hold moral POV when you have a backup plan.
I mean the stakes change in moral courage. You can be morally courageous for things you have backup for
not entirely true there is no "sufficient" amount to be moral, the whole point is to be good regardless of incentives to not be.
Not only the Field Marshall, but the best General India ever had and will have in future. To every Indian Patriot, Manekshaw will always remain The Sam Bahadur❤
Moral of the story: A leader succeeds when he/she listens to the sincere advice of the expert of the matter she deals with. Indira Gandhi succeeded in helping Bangladesh because she listened to the field marshal and let him have his way.
But Bangladesh is Ungrateful They are harassing Hindus and do they remember the supreme sacrifice of our men
@@meenaiyer5856like many Muslims are being harassed here as well. Extremists are on both the sides
In India Muslims are not harassed *If they are Law abiding Citizens
The 1971 Indo Pak war victory ✌️🙌 is due to our brave Field Marshal Sam Manek Shaw . My Royal Salute to brave 💪 Manek Shaw . Jay Hind 🇮🇳
Other generals have disputed his accounts. They say maneckshaw was hesitant to take decisive action. Later he claimed credit for everything.
A country is lucky to have a gem like late sam manekshaw once in a thousand years.
Massive respect sir!!
Heard from him in person in Staff College Wellington in 1989..... Magic he was.
You are indeed very lucky sir ....
It was the battle which was
"WON on the GROUND"
"LOST on the TABLE".......
I saw him from a distance and I was in HS. My Dad was a JCO at command hospital, used to visit him 😀 My Dad was very proud of him!
"Rank doesn't dignify a man ; a man can dignify the rank !"
*Why We dont get taught about this great man in our notebooks?*
Because our history books have only narratives of certain select people . Many more deserving characters do not even get a mention
Khud se kyun nhi seekhte? Sab kuch school mein hi padhayenge kya??
Bcoz they would want the new generation to learn about PM Modi and his clans Dharma
@@seasonwalk5776 No,his persecution by Congis will come out in public.
@@girishsingh294 he was not a bootlicker but said it to the face so the question of persecution does not arise. Don't fool the people
True patriot with great vision
Yeas a true leader .... a great soldier
clarity of thoughts and brilliant strategist

One of the greatest leaders as well as communicators that we have had

Maneckshaw was not the first to threaten PM with resignation to have his own. Long before him General Thimmaiah to threatened Nehru with resignation.
He is a Legend,a Lion.This country will never forget youSir.This country is indebted to you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That's Our Field Marshall Sam Maneckshaw. He never ran away from Facts but always stood his grounds and fought for it. Jai Hind sir.
One of the finest battles, we ever fought and had all the aces up on the sleeve. We could have removed 370, got back POK and many more. Fate has its own history.
It was a decisive victory .... rest is history

Missing Sam Manekshaw more than ever before.
Jai Hind
Kya missing. Tu tab paida BHI Nahi hua tha

I am dumbstruck here, to see one of the greatest Generals, how light heartedly and hilariously sharing about how he steered the country from the gravest moments to a huge success and relief. Epitome of courage and a brilliant mind. We owe our eternal gratitude to you sir.
The world's greatest generals are often the most human. Maneckshaw, Zhukov, Yamashita, Rommel and so on.
It was the battle which was
"WON on the GROUND"
"LOST on the TABLE".......
I wish I could give this video a million thumbs up.
Please add a couple of million from my side too... thanks for watching
I Salute Immortal Respected Shree Sam Manekshaw .
It was Lt Gen J F R Jacob who planned & executed the Military Operations in Dec/1971.
Sam & Aurora had differences with the War Plan but Jacob managed to execute it due to prevailing International situations.
Credit must also to be given to JFR Jacob
Gen Manekshaw and Maj Gen Arora had no plans to capture Dhaka. It was Maj Gen Jacob who suggested that.
Also, he was the one who forced Niazi to agree for surrender.
Great strategist.
He is too underappreciated.
@@phabove7
You are correct 💯💯💯
I intentionally did not state what you mentioned 😔😔😔
Aurora wanted to neutralize the fortified border posts first while Jacob plan was to isolate them & bypassing, to rush towards Dacca🌹🌹🌹
How I wish,our Generals, Civil Servants,Justice were like this....how I wish...🎉.The greatest General of India.
To hv the moral courage a leader must possess education, honesty , sense of responsibility, integrity, patriotism and above all farsightedness. Indira ji had no want on those.....
Do you think this kinda dialogues can be followed on today’s PM regime ?
Get listened & Got listened has huge differences .. At least in old times higher officials has listening as well as talking capacity unlike nowadays.
No one is perfect even a PM but taking advices from knowledgable person is no shame !!
@@asmil04 In important places there's no officers but slaves only.They r appointed/re-employed on an irregular basis.......
Sam was so clear in his thoughts and clearly very outspoken and definitely brave being the only field Marshall till date, I presume. But his outspokenness has something which we should know. He must've been very sure that he was talking to a Prime Minister who was very strong and considerate at the same time. He was very sure about the considerate or human part and that he will not be asked to sent in his resignation. That was SAM and that was INDI(R)A. Hat's off to both these great gems of our country
Thats a very good analysis maqsood ji ... we have to appreciate the virtues of both these great leaders. Thanks for watching
@@defencediarycan you please tell me the context of this video as we fought the war ,we won , then in the video Sam sir is not allowing for it.
Samjh nhi aya hua to tha war,
Army did it,
Then yeh kya context hai
@@unstoppable9668 The political leadership wanted the Army to go to war in April .... In the video the Field Marshal explained the reasons why going to war at that time would not be feasible.... thereby not simply agreeing without considering the actual ground realities . We went to war in Dec when the conditions were favourable and we were well prepared to go in for a decisive victory
@@defencediary oh ok thanks for this !
But then what was happening in Bangladesh b/w Apr-Dec?
@@unstoppable9668monsoon was happening...east Bengal is full of huge rivers & water bodies must be very difficult for any army to work in such conditions...
A great PM and a great General
yes.
Great General 1000% but great pm I don't know I what sense
@@kp5056not a great pm.
Late Field Marshall Sam. Manekshaw Patriotic Soldier
He is so learned, well aware knowledgeable, knew his job, the right person to do his job, knew what he was speaking, he had Vision n great strategist.
Morals and courage go hand in hand...they complement each other...take out moral, and there won't be any courage to speak about...take out courage, and there won't be any morals to speak about
Hats off to Field Marshal Sam to deal with idiots who called themselves ministers ..at least Mrs Gandhi didn’t bring her ego in and hats off to her🎉
Iron man courageous enough to put up the fact. We salute him❤
Moral of the story: “Amount of money is directly proportionate to courage “
Your name is Sam but you for us you are Shyam of 1971 war
Parsis are gems
He must be taught in schools books to the students.
Huge respect and gratitude from Bangladesh
Most courageous ,brave, honest and patriotic person. 🙏
Thanks for this information all these facts should reach eligible citizens of India so that they /we will understand the past for better future
Great person a coorgi proud his legacy unmatched
This is a masterpiece strategic thinking upon right timing for starting a war, and knowing one's own business and the right time to do the same. A very very mighty salute to Field Marshall General Manekshaw.
Man of character, honour and courage are hard to find these days ... sam is was and always will be "Bahadur"
AFSOS !! WHAT KIND OF MINISTERS WE WERE RULED IN PAST WHO KNEW NOTHING 🤔
Great great Gen Msneksha 👌
Can listen to late field marshal any number of times, yet one feels like listening once more
We really need another Manek Shaw ji to strengthen our India
He was man of cheeky humour and wit besides being a gallant chief.Jai Hind Sir let your guardian soul protect our borders and soldiers forever.❤
He's Our own De Gaulle or Montgomery. It wouldn't be exaggeration to call him even Napoleon
Salute You Sir ji
Jai Hind
Jai Jawan.
Nice Speech Sir
I St time I am watching this video ji
I always love his speech I don't know why ....but i can not skip his speech
He once said soldiers came from all walks of lives and from all states so he knew some words of many languages since he heard his soldiers speak in that language.
He said the only language he didnt know was gujarati.
I'm not knowledgeable enough to put the right word to describe his height of courage and morality. He is a rare birth personality in Indian defence segment. A great warrior and a patriot.
Thank you beloved Field Marshall for being there ❤❤❤❤❤
Feel blessed to have been able to listen to the stories and bravery and the integrity with which you went about your duties !!
Feel proud to be an Indian , a Hindustani....where the Indian Army Chief was Sam Bahadur Maneckshaw....
Sir , your charisma, confidence , love for the nation are unmatched !!
You were , you are and you will always be the Most Beloved Soldier of this great Nation !!
Jai Hind !! 😊
Few days ago in my essay paper of UPSC cse mains, i have wrote about this incident in Essay of "visionary leader= Moral Intuition + Moral logic
Moral courage is a higher and rare virtue than physical courage.
William Slim
The Leaders those Days unlike today were receptive to Discussion,Arguments and Suggestions...and didn't mind that believed in two sided communication.,...
Awesome for bravo hearts of BHARAT ...daredevils eagles dare anytime against venomous rattle crabs.... they said it... they did it - walk your talks ... not unjust blabs VANDE MAATARAM ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Field Marshal Sam, stood up PM Mrs Indira.But victory was planned & accomplished by the then Eastern Army commander Maj.Gen.JFR.Jacob. Credit largely go to him too.
Sir🙏 forever, Parsi are lovingly mad ,brilliant, nationalist, 🙏🙏🙏 indebted thank once again indebted to this unique race🙏🙏🙏
marshal you are brave and wise man.
What a champ! It's rare to find men like him today.
Rarely subscribe, but after watching Sam speak, I hit the button. Real pity India is short of men like him
Thanks for watching and subscribing,
We need his biopic to be done and Danish Sait will be the perfect choice based on looks ❤
Wonderful, 👍👍
A great Army man and an equally commendable PM, who was able to work with strong individuals and heed their advice. In our age where Modiji suggests clouds providing natural cover for covert operations and army chiefs not countering, it’s a field day for our enemies.
Is such discussion , dialogue between PM n officials possible in today’s regime ?
I am sure no military decisions can be taken without a dialogue between the armed forces and National leadership. The fact that we now have a CDS, would help in this dialogue between the military and the National leadership. I am also sure that military leaders at any point of time would call a spade a spade. Also most decisions of this nature are not military alone. Going to war is a military, diplomatic and most importantly economic decision.
General with lots of courage
But one Unfortunate thing. Manekshaw became Field Marshal, Arjan Singh became Marshal of The Air later, but P C LAL, and SARDARI LAL seem to be overlooked
Today our accent is very different, I saw that 20indians talking about India or views on India they also had good accent and now I heard SAM sir he also have good accent
You know you're doomed when your general has more knowledge about Forgine affairs then your Forgine affairs minister
Excellent job was done by Very Respected Manekshaw. Hats off to him.
Maneksa Ssheb Ko Sachcha Desh Bhagt Kabhi Nahi Bhul Sakta
Till date this is how our minister are acting now like holding post knowing nothing about the responsibility, what about the post to do!😂🤣
So, nice to hear him. Amazing Combination of courage and intellect
Vicky koshal is ready to introduce the biopic of this mastermind first field marshal of India
ऐसे महापुरुष को बार बार प्रणाम यह हमारे भारत की निधि रहे हैं
Very very few Executives these days, who has 'moral courage ' to open their mouth before legislatives, Superiors..!!👌👍🙏
Brave general with a great sense of humour 😅🙏
Lesson for scared Trudeau ..
The legacy we carry is precious, exemplary and legendary....
the present well, the lesser said the better....
Nice Story to think about
Sam Bahadur Maneskshaw... He was Bharats Ratna...an epitome of the true warrior. Always remembered fondly for the liberation of Bangladesh.
Jai Hind
True patriot
Excellent Field Marshal Sir.
Hats off to your intelligence Sir
A time when railway minister was muslim, foreign minister was sikh, marshal was parsi…. Beauty of India… par aaj kya hai? hindu khatre me hai 😅
Excellent share 🎉 thanks so much to hear Fauji Sam voice and his ground explanation and not fearing to tell the situation 🎉 thanks again 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it
Very strong PM Mrs Indira Gandhiji.....but she never took credit by propagating by godi media
Really...i guess you were born yesterday...go ask your parents
Salute... The Great Warrior.....
date kaun mention karega ?
Cut all that short... What was the opinion of Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Manekshaw to liberating Aksai Chin?
Brilliance knows no boundaries
True

A Great PM indeed and General.
The Legend Sam Manekshaw

Humor is an essential part of effective communication. Effective communication is an important aspect of Leadership
He's each words prove that he is a leader ❤ great personality
What our brave soldiers earn at the cost of their blood, Indira Gandhi lost all the advantage upon her whim.
