Is this a real Indian army recruitment ad? - daily.bhaskar.com

New Delhi: Is this army recruitment ad for real? The snapshot of a billboard apparently carrying an army recruitment ad placed at an outdoor location in Shillong is now floating on microblogging site Twitter.

The 'advertisement', a collage of images of female Bollywood actors hailing from 'army families', carries the punchline, "if you want to have beautiful and successful daughters, join the Indian army.

The official website of the Indian army is mentioned at the bottom of the poster.

Many of those who have seen the poster find it fake and completely unlike the advertisements the army and other defence forces usually release in the public domain.

The image has been retweeted by senior Congress member Shashi Tharoor, perhaps in an attempt to draw the attention of the concerned authorities towards the poster.

Fake or not, those guys making ads in the MoD are totally incompetent.

I'm Chinese so my kids are already going to be smart. This does nothing for me

If you join Indian Army, all your daughters will be born white.

And if that quality poster is the typical Indian Army ads you see in India... then IA needs a budget raise

like many other orgs. army also hire it's ad agencies. and these agencies keep forwarding many bizarre ideas. some of them get hit, and some of them face protest and eventually called back and a lesson is learnt for future.
