We all have come across news of army officials being indulged in corruption. Recently, an Assam Rifles Colonel was sacked on the charges of corruption.
But do we fail to identify the bright side or is it just media playing for their TRPs?
Hence, here is an incident which a Quora user experienced with an army soldier. This will surely make you feel proud of our soldiers.

Here it goes:
“Once, I and my friends were visiting White Rann of Kutch for the first time. The area is monitored by Indian Army.
If anyone wants to go there then they have to pay an entry fee at some village which is 10 km away from the Rann of Kutch. Only on that entry ticket, Army person allows you to enter the white desert.
Unfortunately, we didn’t know that and went to White Rann directly and Army person stopped us from entering as we didn’t have the ticket. We started apologizing for the mistake and told them to please allow us to enter as we don’t want to go back 10 km and travel same distance back as we have traveled almost 120 km.

While negotiating (actually apologizing) with them, we tried many things to convince them to let us go but they didn’t let us in.
Meanwhile one of my friends said, “Sir, Jane do na. Jo paise hote he vo lelo. (Sir, Please let us go. You can charge us for same)”
Army man said “Sir hum police wale nahi hain (We are not policemen)”. The words touched our hearts. At last, they let us go only on our Identification proof without paying anything.
Though we paid the amount on our way back, we didn’t have any intention to bribe the army person but what we actually meant was that they can take entry fee from their ends.”
Untold stories like these will never be broadcasted by media because this will earn them no TRPs. More stories like this should be brought to light.
