Ahmedabad, DeshGujarat
Hailing originally from Valsad, in South Gujarat, Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw used to visit Gujarat often. One of his last visits happened in year 2000 to Ahmedabad. It was an award function organized by Ahmedabad Management Association in IIM Ahmedabad’s Ravi Mathai auditorium.
Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw was in his upbeat mood and delivered an excellent, impressive and motivating speech like always.
This part of a video presented above has Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw’s narration of his one remarkable experience with Indira Gandhi and her central leadership before the Great Bangladesh war was decided.
Field Marshal narrated his this particular experience to make understand the audience, how his moral courage helped him not to become a ‘Yes Man’ but a ‘Man of Moral’ at the time of taking important decision about whether to jump in Bangladesh war hastily or to wait for favorable time to make a victory certain.

This problem with your site. Your site is pro BJP and will always look anything said about Congress in negative Manner. First Listen to the speech and then come conclusion

Hello,
Just by chance, I just happened to watch your video narrating his experiences ( Field Marshal SAM MANEKSHAW)
I have really admired his frankness reflecting true to his personality. It will be very rare to find a devoted person like him in India. Please transmit my sincere condolences to his family.
I am a person of Indian origin settled in Paris, France since ages.
With best wishes.

I wish to make a small documentary on him to show to public during Ganapati festival in Maharashtra.
If you can help me in getting this video and other video’s and pictures of him throughout his life it could help me reach his greatness to different levels of society.
Waiting for your response.
