Bhopal, May 28 (PTI) Army Chief General V K Singh today cleared his Research Degree Committee (RDC) viva as a prelude to obtain a PhD in Military Science from Barkatullah University here. The General will do his PhD on ''Security implications of rise of fundamentalism in Afghanistan: Its Global and Regional impact with special focus on Wakhan.'' Clad in a civil dress, 59-year-old Singh arrived like a commoner to appear in the RDC, sans any security. Normally, the Army Chief moves in a convoy, but today he came in a Toyota, with another one carrying his staff. This is perhaps for the first time in the history of universities in Madhya Pradesh that a top army general appeared for a viva for PhD enrolment. Asked why he chose Barkatullah varsity, the General said very few universities in the country have the facility of giving PhD in this subject. Singh said he selected Afghanistan as his research topic as its strategic location has lot of implications on India. Asked about his performance in the viva, the Army Chief pointed to his guide Professor Kailash Tyagi to answer it. Singh is a graduate of the Defence Services Staff College, Wellington as well as the Rangers Course at Fort Benning, USA and the US Army War College, Carlisle.
