Punjab Congress president Capt Amarinder Singh today asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to sack Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar for allegedly downgrading military officers’ ranks.“You cannot allow an incompetent person to continue to hold such a sensitive portfolio,” Amarinder told Modi in a strongly worded statement issued here.He condemned the Defence Minister’s diktat downgrading Army ranks as compared to their counterparts in the civil administration.Reacting strongly to a report in a section of the media that a new Defence Ministry letter has downgraded the status of military officers across ranks, Amarinder charged Parrikar with lowering the morale of the Army to satiate vested bureaucratic interests.
