🇮🇳 REMEMBERING 25 AIR WARRIORS

There is a tradition at AFTC — Air Force Technical College that has stayed with courses of Aeronautical Engineers.

During our training, we performed knuckle push-ups until our knuckles bled—as a mark of respect and remembrance for 25 young Aeronautical Engineers who lost their lives in the tragic IAF Avro crash at Yelahanka in 1991.

They were young officers, freshly commissioned, full of dreams and ready to serve the Indian Air Force.
I spoke about this deeply personal story during my conversation on the Misfit Human podcast with Dhruv Athi.

Every Aeronautical Engineer who passes through the portals of AFTC carries their memory forward.
As we approach the 94th Indian Air Force Day on 8 October 2026, I dedicate this post to those 25 young warriors.

35 years have passed.Their memory has not.

🫡 Remembering the 25.Remembering their dreams.Remembering their service.

🇮🇳 Jai Hind.

🇮🇳 UNBELIEVABLE ACHIEVEMENTS!

This morning, I received a call from a veteran BSF officer who saw the photograph of my podcast guest, ASI Sunil Dasila | Ex-BSF | Ex-NSG, in uniform.
He remarked:
“So many achievements on the uniform… this must be an extraordinary journey.”

That conversation prompted me to look more closely at Sunil Dasila’s journey of over two decades.

Courses, training, medals, operational experience and diverse responsibilities — his uniform reflects a career filled with remarkable experiences and achievements.

🎙️ We explored many fascinating aspects of this journey in our podcast with Sunil Dasila.

When I started my podcast journey, 1,000 views felt like a milestone (You Tube Channel : 🎙️ Wg Cdr Nimish Jain)

Then came a conversation with JWO Sandeep Kumawat — Indian Air Force GARUD Special Forces.

When the episode crossed 10,000 views, it felt like a huge achievement.

I never imagined that the same conversation would one day cross 100,000 views.

But today, the number is not what matters most.
What matters is why people watched.

You didn't just watch a story.
You found real experiences, hard lessons and clarity in the journey of a GARUD warrior.
You watched.You shared.You asked questions.You engaged.
And that is what makes this milestone truly special.

🙏 Thank you for your trust, your curiosity and your feedback.

To celebrate this milestone, I am sharing some behind-the-scenes moments from our most-requested GARUD training episode.

Many of you have been asking for more from this conversation.
So, we listened. 🇮🇳

We will bring you this GARUD training story in an upcoming episode.

For me, this journey has never been just about views.

It is about bringing stories that can make us think, learn and see things with greater clarity.

REAL STORIES.HARD LESSONS.CLARITY.

Follow Wg Cdr Nimish Jain on YouTube for more stories from the Indian Armed Forces.

🙏 Thank you for being part of this journey.

🔥 HOW DOES BSF HUNT THE ENEMY?

How do you track an enemy who doesn’t want to be found?

How do you identify a threat before it becomes an attack?

And what can BSF & NSG operations teach us about tracking, intelligence and counter-terror operations?

A little throwback to my Jodhpur days… 🇮🇳

I was a young Flight Lieutenant, getting ready for a ceremonial evening at the Officers’ Mess.

Summer ceremonial dress, uniform just right—and the last thing before stepping out? Polishing those shoes! 👞😄

We all knew the drill. The shoes had to shine before you walked into the Mess.

Looking at this picture today, it’s funny how such simple moments become some of your best memories.

Those were the days! 🇮🇳

🎙️ The cameras are off. The recording is complete.

But the questions that matter most are only beginning.

For years, we have discussed aircraft, missiles, military operations, and national security.

This time, we step back and examine the bigger picture.

🌍 A CHANGING GEOPOLITICAL LANDSCAPE

The decisions being made thousands of kilometres away may have consequences much closer to home.

⚠️ Could the Middle East conflict reshape India's strategic environment?

⛽ What happens if the Strait of Hormuz is disrupted?

📈 How could global energy markets impact India's economy?

🇵🇰 Where does Pakistan fit into the evolving regional equation?

🇮🇳 And most importantly, what should India prepare for in an increasingly uncertain world?

This conversation is not about predicting the future.

It is about understanding the realities that may shape it.
