I hope what MG Singh said is true that it is a fake video. If that is not true they it might be one of the isolated cases as mentioned by Gulshanji.

In both cases, it is shameful. Even if it is an isolated case then also such thing should not happen and immediate corrective measure should be taken.

 if it is fake, it is shameful that someone is trying to defame armed forces

Here is the clarification by the BSF Authorities. Tej Bahadur Yadav.  the said Jawan was a  habitual  offender of  absenteeism without permission, chronic alcoholism and bad behaviour  with seniors

@ Usha, men in uniform are debarred from using social media,  but probably this man uploaded it quietly. He will now be punished and most likely dismissed from service with a RI term as well. Discipline has to be maintained.

BSF  Authorites already clarified because of  the said Jawan's indiscipline. See the link I gave above

I was quite surprised to read about bad quality food being served to the jawans. My parents had been working in the paramilitary force and I have never heard about such cases . As Usha has already mentioned good food are always served to the jawans. In fact if food are not available locally, the ration are brought from nearby places. 

I have spent few years in different army camps and eating at army messes. I was astonished to see the quality of food served to them. Maybe it's one of those stray incidents which this man has over painted. However, there is no doubt that corruption is spread in all sections of our society including military and paramilitary.

I agree with you, the food given to army persons is not as good what the BSF is mentioning. The corrupt officers grab the good quality food and sell in the market at lower rates, and supply low quality food to soldiers.

Tej bBahadur Yadav is a highly undisciplined Jawan in the BSF.. Because he was transferred to the border, out of anger on his Authorities he has spread the rumor on the YOU TUBE

BSF  spokes man already clarified that the food quality is good.

Sorry, but I wanted to say that food provided to army personal is better than available at 3 star hotels with very good menu. I was astonished to see the quality of food provided to army officers but maybe the personal at para military mess is not all that good or this was a stray incident.

That is exactly what I thought too when I first saw the video. But then I thought that a jawan won't post such a video unless there was truth in it, but now I know. Incidentally, can you throw light on how he managed to post the video in the first place? As far as I know, the jawans are discouraged from using social network sites, so how did he do it?

I myself eat some time in army mess, but quality of food was never so poor which is shown in this video. It is also right army also have corrupt people.
