Army Chief's age controversy: Battle not over, warn experts

Experts say a complicated and lengthy legal battle could follow in the next few months. Yesterday, the Defence Minister said that the government had accepted 1950 as the year in which General VK Singh was born. The Army Chief has been arguing that he was born a year later. The problem is that Army records reflect both.
