So Generals represent various races.... ahmm.
Not really, but it gives you sort of bragging rights. British had some of their favorite tribes and would give prestigious jobs to them only. It is sort of continuing but has since considerably been diluted.

LOL even Bajwa's father in law was a Gernal who served in the British army.[/QUOTE
They still had their subtle practices to promote their loyalists.

Subtle U-Turn I can see :lol:
Why are you making monkey faces. If you think British were doing all the things right, why did it take Jatts, the largest population tribes of Punjab, so long to get to the top.
Jaats were part of the political ruling class of Punjab during the British era. British army was always headed by a British, nothing to do with any desi race. Go read history again. Having said that I have nothing against any race.
Yes, the top jobs were with the British but they promoted the next line of desis from their loyalists. British remembered that Jatts were in Power before them in Punjab under Ranjit Singh, so they did not think it was in their interest to appoint Jatts to eminent places of power. They controlled majority population through their loyalist minority tribes by favoring them in Govt jobs.
