Subedaar Deedar singh from the armoured corps had one desire that he has a stable of boys who would all join his regiment and get that honour for him and the family just like he had done So when the first born arrived he didn t heed to his mother asking him to conduct the naamkarn ceremony and announced his child to be christened Leftaan Singh (Lieutenant Singh) after all he was the first in the heirarchy When the next son came he coughed and announced Kaptaan (Captain) Singh Thus began the saga of ritual home grown promotions till he had Major Singh Karnail (Colonel) Singh Bargader (Brigadier) Singh and finally Jarnail (General) Singh Sache Patshaah in his benevolence had been magnanimous and he could rest now but then arrived a beautiful baby girl Subedaar sahab was stumped and paced up and down to figure out an appropriate name His wife seeing his frustration called out Gal suno biba da nau ARMAD KAUR na rakhh daiye???
