So the exact details of the OPs story doesn't add up. Maybe it's because they're lying, maybe they're being deliberately vague as pr. your third point.

It certainly is plausible, the Indian government is well known to be highly corrupt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_in_India#Politics

What I mean is that, I do not deny corruption prevalent in India, but, what I do question is his 'sources'. This is an opinion, not a question. I found it doubtful, thus I said. I felt it was worth mentioning, because my family is related to the armed forces as well, so anyone wrongfully hiding behind a fake persona putting a bad light on armed forces is also hurting me.

Fake persona ? I'm a regular at HN and use my real name here. Hardly a fake persona. You seem to be taking a rather emotional standpoint here for no valid reason.

I know you are a real person (duh!), but somehow I'm having doubts about the rest of it. Maybe I'm just being extra sceptical, but it would really help if you can prove your dad is really what you say he is.

For rather obvious reasons he's not likely to want to provide proof. Please stop asking for it.

If you know anything about how things work in India, you won't ask him to give concrete proof about dad. For the safety of his dad and other family members, he is right to keep details secret.
