Why do you think that way about Nepal and Bhutan? Even if you spend $20b in these two countries to develop their communications infrastructures it will be of no help to India in times of war in the NE. In such a war with China, India has no room to fall behind because BD will keep its border closed for IA. Just think what will happen if a column or two of Chinese troops march south to your 'chicken neck' through your (?) Sikkim and Gorkhaland/Darjeeling area when heavy war is continuing in Arunachal. Indian army will be trapped in its own land even if BD remains neutral. Nepalese weak infrastructure will not give India any respite.Maybe you were in hurry to read me. I said, russia will provide us buffer from any aggression from China. Are you crazy in your comments about Bhutan and Nepal? ... and Mate, check the map again and tell me one reason i will open a front via BD!!! ..... i just need BD to sit tight and not back stab me (thats all!).
Chinese army has the strength to close a rope tightly around the 'Chicken Neck.' This will make India gasp for air. All your divisions in the NE, without getting supplies from the west of BD will be roasted alive by the Chinese. And all these things will happen even if BD remains neutral and do not back stab its friendly neighbour called India.
China very well understands the scenerio and also understands the geopolitical importance of BD. That is why they keep on selling high class armaments to BD at 'Friendship price' to woo that country. Indian strategists also understand this dillema, but depends too much on their ego and probably on the soothsaying astrologers. How pathetic that the disciples of Kautilla have become so void of MAGZ.
One small information. BD army has already placed thousand of land mines along the border with your 'Chicken neck' and hundreds of our tanks will be readily deployed behind that line in time of a war in the NE so that the IA troops do not fall back there to regroup and re-organize.
