Most likely trained in the afpak-. This is what happens when you let taliban flourish. They want to impose themselves on everyone else. It doesn't matter if its china or India.

Inviting the UN was something Nehru deeply regretted. It was suggested and promoted by Lord Mountbatten, the governor general. Pakistan, represented by Sir Zafrullah Khan was able to present a far better case than India. A striking feature of the UN discussions was the partisanship of the...

Back then, Nehru was the only person capable of uniting the nation. Everyone rallied behind this person. Hindu, Muslim, Christian, everyone. He was held in high regard both at home and abroad. Being a statesman, strongly opposed to communalism and a true leader there was no one more suited than...

I knew you would latch on to that. Please take the time to read the remainder of my post. To keep the discussion in track i removed that portion from my reply.

India is currently ranked as Dubai’s top trading partner in terms of imports, exports and re-exports, achieving as total value of over AED 40 billion. It emerged as Dubai’s top exporting and re-exporting country at AED 21 billion($7.35billion) and came second in terms of imports at...

Its all very good. But seriously, GREEN ?

In 1947, It would have been a political and social nightmare. After conquering Dras and Kargil, some Indian commanders wanted to move on and requested redeployement of three brigades from the plains. But this was denied for a very good reasons. For one thing, the winter was about to set in. For...

More on topic, The Indians had a better argument overall. But there remained a basic incompatibility in positions. Any evidence emanating from western sources-even from unaffiliated jesuit priests- was dismissed as tainted by 'imperialism'. The Chinese would up to a point present counter...

Mr.Shiv I dont read propaganda texts if that's what you meant. In fact, i asked too many questions and never stopped sifting through historical accounts and analysis until i drew an un biased conclusion.

Nehru was a man far greater than you or I. Every Indian must be proud that our land had a son like nehru. Yes, 1962 happened, but that doesn't make him any smaller. He was the only force holding back communal violence and total breakdown of our country. He made India stable. He is the grand...

How is it possible without electricity ?

All marriages in India are now required to be registered marriages. Certificates and documents issued by religious institutions are no longer valid. Those already married must register separately in the local panchayat.

There is a pattern here. With advancements in Indian economy, social indicators and general wealth ; our people tend to fabricate utter lies to assume some kind of superiority. I dont what these guys are hoping to prove here. India is a great nation with rich history and culture. You dont...

According to the Dubai authorities, India is now its largest trading partner among other things. Opinions ? Insight ? Objections ?

International consensus, maybe. But an actual legitimacy ? I don't think so. Its very evident when almost every country warmly welcomes the dalai and the Tibetan prime minister ( and his delegates ) in exile. No it isn't. Our forces are modernizing as fast as they possibly can. Don't go by...

The blame for our loss cannot be placed entirely on Nehru. A great deal of blame goes to our defense minister Krishna Menon. General Thimayya thought his troops should be prepped for a possible engagement with China. But, Krishna Menon insisted that the real threat came from pakistan...

Getting back on topic, The chinese were resentful of the popular welcome given by large sections of Indian population to the Dalai Lama. Peking claimed that the Tibetan popular uprising was the product of fugitive upper class reactionaries aided by "american imperialists" and the chiang...

"Control" as in a subservient state. And the claim "500" years is simply incorrect. I acknowledge that China has always "claimed" Tibet but Tibet itself has managed to remain largely independent. They were truly an independent nation for 40 years until China INVADED and ANNEXED it in October 1950.

Not really. In October 1950 China invaded and annexed Tibet. The Chinese has always "claimed" suzerainty over that COUNTRY, and in the past has exercised control over it. But, there had also been periods when Tibet was genuinely independent, as in the four decades before communist invasion...
