经过10年等待后，印度士兵拿到了防弹衣
NEW DELHI: Ordinary infantry soldiers are still a long way from getting modern assault rifles and light-machine guns, new anti-tank weapons and light-weight ballistic helmets, but they are finally going to get desperately needed bullet-proof jackets after waiting for a decade.
印度普通的步兵要拿到现代化的突击步枪、轻型机枪、新的反坦克武器、轻型防弹头盔等装备要等很久，不过他们等了十年后最终拿到了迫切需要的防弹衣。
The Army has inked a contract for "emergency" procurement of 50,000 bullet-proof jackets with Tata Advanced Materials Limited, a subsidiary of the Tata Group, for Rs 140 crore. "The jackets will be delivered from August onwards. All the jackets are to delivered by January 2017," a defence ministry source said.
印度陆军签署了一份紧急采购合同，向塔塔集团的子公司塔塔先进材料有限公司订购5万件防弹衣，总价是1.4亿卢比。“防弹衣从8月份开始交货。所有防弹衣会在2017年1月份交货完毕。”国防部一位消息人士称。
Given the huge shortage of bullet-proof jackets in the 1.18-million strong Army due to convoluted procurement procedures, Manohar Parrikar had approved this "interim emergency acquisition" through the "revenue route" soon after he took over as defence minister in November 2014.
由于采购程序复杂，印度118万之众的军队严重缺乏防弹衣，马诺哈尔·帕里卡尔于2014年11月接过国防部长职务后，批准了这次临时紧急采购

Earlier dynasty congress Eight years and NDA took nearly Two years to flow to action. Lot of Jawan lives would have saved during a decade.
国大党执政8年，
而本届政府只花了2年就行动起来了
过去十年里，很多士兵的生命原本可以挽回的

iIts a must....

比工资调整更重要
国家安全和士兵的保护是最重要的

This is a colossal failure on part of the previous Governments that they failed to do anything for the precious lives of our soldiers. The Khangress Govt treated these young men as fodders. I'm so glad that the Def Min has finally acted on this and hopefully we can save a few undesired fatalities.
以前的政府太失败了，没有采取任何措施来保护士兵的宝贵生命
国大党政府把那些年轻士兵当做炮灰
很高兴国防部最终采取了行动，希望能挽救一些不必要的牺牲吧

It is shame for us that we couldn't provide even bulletproof jacket to soldiers who guard us day and night ... good work by Manohar Parrikar...such things should be given prime importance
太丢脸了，士兵们日夜守护着我们，而我们居然没有为他们提供防弹衣
马诺哈尔·帕里卡尔做得很好，防弹衣是最重要的。

These are basic things which every army men's should get and if it cost only 140 cr for 50,000 then whats the issue and specially its made locally..
这是基本装备，每个士兵都应人手一件。
50000件才1.4亿卢比，有什么问题，而且是本地产的...
