An Army officer accused of indecent behaviour for allegedly organising a ladies meeting with a raunchy honeymoon theme has been pushed out of the Pune-based Army Institute of Technology (AIT).

Earlier this year, the Major General-rank officer had organised a ladies meeting based on a honeymoon theme where the wives of young officers studying in AIT were invited to take part. 

After the pictures of the meeting went viral among social media groups in the Army, they came in for severe criticism from officers who were agitated over such events being organised officially by a senior officer in the force. 

Sources alleged that the officer tried to make the party look raunchy by placing beds in the middle of the hall with handcuffs placed on them

‘When the matter reached the Army chief, he took it very seriously and the officer has now been shunted out from his office in AIT and sent to a formation in Chhattisgarh,’ an Army source told Mail Today.

Sources alleged that the officer had tried to make the ladies party look raunchy by placing beds in the middle of the hall with handcuffs placed on them. Also put up at the venue were sexy cutouts of women, which sources say are totally against the traditions of the force where women are treated with utmost respect. 

The young officers whose wives had attended the party had also expressed anguish over the party theme to their top brass, the sources claimed.

‘The Army chief’s instructions have been very clear that while dealing with cases of moral turpitude and corruption, no mercy should be shown towards personnel, and officers and jawans should be treated alike,’ the source said. 

In recent times, the force has been very harsh in cases of moral turpitude as a Flag officer was shunted out for stealing the affections of his brother officer’s wife while a Major General is facing a court martial in Ambala for allegedly trying to violate the modesty of a lady officer much younger than him in age and rank.

Sources said the chief’s belief is that even if in cases of moral turpitude where the relationships are consensual, they will not be allowed as it is felt that the force is like a big family and showing leniency in such cases may affect its moral fabric. 

A Lieutenant Colonel rank officer was also dismissed from service for having an affair with the 19-year old daughter of a fellow officer after he was found guilty of the offence. 

Before Gen Rawat took over in January this year, a number of allegations of corruption in promotions and postings would crop up every now and then, but now the system is in the process of being made more transparent. The chief, sources said, has made it clear that corruption would not be tolerated.
