Chinese think tank suggests division of India

[SarthakGanguly]

Apparently not.

Check out the posts from @jamahir, @Abotani, @mujhaidind, and @DRAY.

States with large demographic divisions have not tended to do well, see the Soviet Union, or ex-British colonies like Sudan.

Or even Iraq and Syria, which have already been de facto partitioned as we speak. Vast areas of both countries are now administered and controlled by ISIS.

There are multiple reasons for that.

1. These states have never been together as entities in the past. Their identity suddenly came into existence in the 20th century after the Ottoman empire was vanquished. India's identity predates the British by many millenia.

2. The fault lines allways remained and only was subdued by socialist regimes, often by force.

3. The most challenging times are best to gauge any nation. In the thirties, under the Japanese assault, quite a handful of Chinese collaboration Governments were formed who did not mind butchering their own citizens. The ISIS is also another example of an opportunistic infection. India was also terribly weakened in 1991. Soviet Union was breaking down, our reserves fell to below 1 million dollar USD. But still the individual divergent groups within the country reposed faith in the Center than others. That speaks for itself.

How am I getting tagged in the same class of the other three?

@SarthakGanguly any idea?

Mistakes happen when one individual is taxed beyond his/her capacity. I guess it was a mistake on his part. He will invent a reason to defend it though. Of course, I am guessing only.

LOL because the Indians here accuse you of being a "secularist" (enemy of India), the others got tagged for the same reason.

That's called political differences, we have different political parties and different political views; doesn't mean people will seek divisions on those lines.

Okay, this is a new low unfortunately.

Abotani, jamahir and mujhaidind are NOT secular. You may not be familiar with the term. They are Islamists, barring Abotani. He being Chinese is also unaware of it. DRAY is secular and NOT pseudo secular either. Being secular is not being an enemy of India. We are a secular state - officially. You should know that.

People living in one party states are unware of divergent political views. It is as alien to them as Shariah is to us.

Excellent post.

Chinese can give a try if they want to, they too will fail like others did with same intentions

There is no people more successfully conquered than the Indian, and no people more blinded by their own arrogance.

This is a historical falsehood. Nothing else.

Most of the nations were conquered at some point of there history,nothing special about India.

Arrogance??

No man, they are a superpower, don't you know?

That's low and unfortunate. But that definitely do not warrants demand for division. Let's call it feedom of expression and move on.

Concept of "Political differences" and word does not exist in Chinese domestic politics. Please do no blame Chinese members if they find it hard to comprehend.

That's ridiculous.

Haven't you seen all the political arguments in the Chinese section? Those arguments are nearly the worst out of all the nationalities here.

How would you defend the completely baseless statement that you made earlier?

Yes, that's quite obvious by now.

OTOH, Dr Kalam has the ability to dream of a better future, freely, without any strings tying him down, without any directive of what to say, what not to say, what to think and so on by some Politburo bosses sitting in some far away land, that even 100 years back was an entirely different country! Yes, he was premature in his statement, but the intention is there and we will get there someday.
