KJS Dhillon seeks discipline, Sheoran warns
Veteran KJS Dhillon pointed out that Sharma skipped key safety steps and called her actions a display of authority without responsibility, urging for disciplinary action.
Lt. Col. Sushil Singh Sheoran said while Sharma handled the weapon confidently, firing into the air is unsafe and wastes ammo. Fortunately, no accident occurred.
