On july 4, 2016, i was stopped by two off duty soldiers from sikh regiment of indian army having issues with me smoking in my car with a khanda hanging in it.
The 2nd guy started the conversation and asked if i am a punjabi and reacted saying if i have seen a sardar smoking ever. then he warned me to come a little ahead with the word, "bhenchod" thrice because there was a traffic cop near by.
I was going to the bank and then to my office for a very important call.
I was then stopped in the middle of the road and pulled out of my car with the same abusive language with words like, bhenchod, bhosdike, madarchod and so on.
I told him politely that i like the culture but, i am not a strict follower of the religion so i did not know that i was not supposed to. i believe in the god but, not any specific religion.
Even after me being so polite and saying sorry if i hurt their religious feelings, they took the glasses off my face and broke them.
Put their hands on my shoulder and warned me that if they ever see me again, they are going to shoot me in the head because they are hardcore jatts from the sikh regiment of the indian army which they kept boasting about too many times.
Then they forced me to pick the dropped cigarette from the road for me to smoke it so that they could take the photo of it, which i refused (i do not for what because i am sure neither of these two almost uneducated ill mannered soldiers had any idea o[censored]sing internet to be able to escalate this to any other level).
The second guy's ego was so hurt that he continued using the abusive language in public, snatched things out from my car in anger which includes a khanda which i got from bidar (after driving more than 280 kms away). it was of high values to me as i further customized it with a self made paint job which shows my sentimental values towards it. it was hung with a heavy silver chain inside the car which these two snatched from my car and refused to return in-spite of me requesting too many times in public.
They questioned me on my attire, my hair style, my beard, my tattoos which nobody gave anybody a right to speak about.
They even took picture of my car's registration number for don' know what!!!
These two sick head soldiers warned me again to shoot me in the head and left from there abusing in public at safilguda railway station.
These two were on an old black honda activa with a fancy font of punjab's registration number so i could not get the number right, but, i can surely recognize the vehicle.
They rushed too fast, drove like a maniac on that activa and entered their quarters near the safilguda railway station just to get rid of me because there were two more guards who would not let me inside those "not so livable" army residential area.
As a result of all this public nuisance, i was late to the bank making me go through a loss of a total of inr 11080/- + inr 2960/- + inr 5850/- as i was going to the bank to get the balance transfer done from hdfc bank to icici bank which i know either of these two can not afford to repay me even together.
Now because i was getting late to the office, i could not get this done on time resulting in me paying for this month for this whole amount and unnecessary mental trauma.
Now because of them pulling out of my car, snatching stuff out of my car, crushing my glasses just because i was wearing them while talking to a bloody off duty soldier (not even an officer, speaking in ill-mannered, uneducated, abusive language)
I belong to a family of 4 out of which my dad and my brother are highly reputed officers in ministry of defense. my dad is in fact equivalent to a brigadier in army or commodore in navy in uniform. i did not want to take their help in this because i faced this inappropriate behavior as a common citizen and no one gives the army soldiers the right to cause inconvenience to the common citizens.
My annual income tax is triple than that of their one month's salary and i expect them to be polite and helpful to the citizens and not boast about them being in the army.
I am sure no one from the department would even care to read it, understand it or feel it.
Everybody knows how "well" they are treated by their citizens which they come out and show it on the civilians, their wives, children or any one they could take this out to.
Thank you indian army, for of being no help to most of the civilians.
They do deserve respect for all what they do, but, because of people like these in the forces, they take away all the respect hard earned by so many others.

Take the most possible strict actions on this issue to before i see them again on the same vehicle and file a legal complaint because i was threatened to be killed by the two of your people from the indian army which is meant to serve the people.
Indian Army customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
