“I want to assure that the Nation that the Indian Air Force will evolve, be ever ready to safeguard our nation’s sovereignty and interests in all circumstances.” –Air Chief Marshal Rakesh Kumar Singh Bhadauria, Indian Air Force Day, 8 October, 2020

Dear Sirs,

Hope you and your family are doing well during this troubled time of catastrophic pandemic.

This is to request you kindly to help us regarding the problems of Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Limited (DHFL) as we are in the same boat, or rather, in the same aircraft. Both of our monies in the form Fixed Deposits (FD) are stuck in the lengthy and tiresome resolution process (RP) under the IBC. We have followed your and Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (UPPCL)’s path, along with Sri Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama, when we had deposited our money in an AAA-rating company, i.e., the DHFL.

Therefore, we are humbly requesting you to kindlysafeguard the interests” of thousands of Indian citizens to whom you are protecting by sacrificing your lives since the last 89 years. Keeping in mind IAF’s long history of contributions in securing the lives of ordinary Indian citizens, we are praying to you to rescue us from such financial abuse.

We do not know your and AIF’s staff mental conditions due to such devastating damage in financial ecosystem, but we, the financially challenged and legally immature DHFL FD-holders, are suffering from mental distresses, agonies, anxiety disorders or otherwise psychosomatic disorders due to such financial problem during the ongoing waves of the COVID surges for such unpredictable situation. We are facing death and are ready to embrace it.

Kindly note that we, the anti-war non-violent satyāgrahis, do not want any violent means (e.g., coup d’état that is unprecedented in Indian democracy for overdetermined antecedents) for solving this problem. Therefore, we are citing here from the Russell-Einstein Manifesto (1955) ⤡:

Some people are also alleging that the Sangh Parivar is associated with the terrorist dons, viz., Dawood Ibrahim and his close associate Iqbal Mirchi, who are again related to Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Limited and its associate RKW Developers Private Limited (Dheeraj Realty). We have already notified you and other concerned dignitaries about the (in)authenticity of such a collusion.

Lastly, keeping in mind the Bhāratīya Vāyu Senā’s contribution, we are reiterating a mantra from the ṛgveda dedicated to the both Lord Indra and Vāyu/Varuṇa/Malaya, the god of the sky:

I crave help from the Imperial Lords, from Indra-Varuna; may they

Both favour one of us like me.

Guardians of men, ye ever come with ready succour at the call

Of every singer such as I.

Sate you, according to your wish, O Indra-Varuna, with wealth:

Fain would we have you nearest us.

May we be sharers of the powers, sharers of the benevolence

Of you who give strength bounteously.

Indra and Varuna, among givers of thousands, meet for praise,

Are Powers who merit highest laud.

Through their protection may we gain great store of wealth, and heap it up

Enough and still to spare, be ours.

O Indra-Varuna, on you for wealth in many a form I call:

Still keep ye us victorious.

O Indra-Varuna, – through our songs that seek to win you to ourselves,

Give us at once your sheltering help.

O Indra-Varuna, to you may fair praise which I offer come,

joint eulogy which ye dignify.

Ṛgveda, Hymn XVII Indra-Varuna
