A bottle of rum is insignificant in relation to salary, but I will answer
that one as well. The subsidy on CSD items is derived from exemption of

I'm not sure what the question in your posting meant: were you trying to
ask whether Dabolim could be a training centre similar to (or instead
of) Tambaram?
Tambaram is an Air Force base (or perhaps was until recently). It does
