India should give peace a chance with Pakistan

[Jackdaws]

I propose India take the following unconditional and unilateral steps to give peace a chance with Pakistan

1) Declare unilateral cease fire along LOC

2) Extend $100 Billion soft Line of Credit to Pakistan

3) Provide visa on arrival. Encourage people to people and Business to Business contacts

4) Encourage sports, entertainment and other cultural ties

5) Recognize AJK & GB as part of Pakistan

It's a great idea. Unfortunately, any Govt which does most of these will be committing harakiri.

We don't need your money, but if the rest are implemented, Modi will lose elections.

It is Pakistan's prerogative how she would respond to these steps by India. Line of Credit is like a pre-approved loan offer. Pakistan may or may not use it but from India's perspective it would demonstrate its seriousness and commitment.

Modi would become a great statesman irrespective of whether he wins or loses the elections.

India has nothing lose.

Give an inch & they will ask for a foot.

we don't need to give any chance for any peace.

If Pakistan want's peace, they must do the 5 points they proposed for us.
Give us back our Kashmir under their rule for starters & may be, just may be we may think about giving peace a chance.

Until then, we are happy to go along with this war.

Why Credit line from India? Can you afford to give away so much money?
and if you are talking about this line between India-Pak Trade then what can India Offer to Pakistan? We need Fuel and Hightech machinery for the most part and India is exporter of none.
Rest of the points are welcome

Credit line could help Indo-Pak JVs companies and projects

$100 Billion would be spread across multiple years.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley

Bangladesh on Wednesday signed $4.5 billion third line of credit (LoC) agreement with India for its infrastructure and social sector development. The agreement was signed in the presence of Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and his Bangladeshi counterpart A M A Muhith after the two leaders held talks here.

Economic Relations Division Secretary Kazi Shofiqul Azam signed the deal on behalf of Bangladesh, while Managing Director of the Export-Import Bank of India (Exim) David Rasquinha signed for India.


The new Indian line of credit, worth a staggering $4.5 billion, will be used to fund 17 major projects in Bangladesh, which include electricity, railroads, roads, shipping and ports.

As with previous LoC agreements, Bangladesh will pay an interest rate of 1 per cent a year. It will have 20 years to pay back the loans, with a grace period of five years.

"Bangladesh has developed significantly on the socioeconomic front in the past seven years," Jaitley said following the signing of the deal.

"We have stood by Bangladesh's attempts to develop and we will do so in the future. This significant agreement is a continuation of that effort," he said.

Speaking on the occasion, Muhith said, "Bangladesh and India have excellent relations at the moment. "They stood by us during our independence. We hope they will continue to do so in the future," Muhith was quoted as saying by the bdnews.

The $4.5bn deal was announced during Prime Minister Sheikh Hasinas visit to India in April. Jaitleys trip to Bangladesh was used to finalise the agreement.

Under the agreement, Bangladesh would have to purchase 65 to 75 per cent of the services, goods or works from the Indian market with the money to be provided under the third LoC following the precedence of the previous two nearly identical agreements.

Bangladesh has two other LoCs open with India: the first one was signed in 2010, and the second one in 2016. These LOCs are collectively worth Tk3.06 billion, but till last year, Bangladesh government has been able to use only $576 million.

Some projects under the first LoC of $862 million faced delay in implementation while the physical works of the 14 projects under the second LoC of $2 billion were yet to start.

Indian army politicians and media will go out of business.

A certain novice would personally like to go to war with an Insas or a Su-30 and is happy to see mother-sister father brother and other family and friends fry under nuclear hell.
So in our attempt to accommodate him we must decline the offer.

Don't you want to share the high quality stuff you are having with your friends...
Consumed the entire dose alone???

Their is a saying... those who don't learn from their past, have a troubled future...

On topic...

What in return for India...

Dividends of peace.

1. Good point agreed
2. No thanks. We don't need despite our economic issues
3. Hmmm
4. At least honour the ICC rules.
5. It will be better for India but if it does not, we are not bothered.

1) Thank you
2) That is your prerogative
3) Is there an issue?
4) ok
5) ok

I am telling Nikki

She just resigned.

you are thinking what i think but this forum is full of haters

This world is full of hypocrites and haters...

Haters may be louder but never greater.

Good points.We should also give 20 Su-30 MKI and 500 T-90 tanks to Pakistan as a token of peace

Rather the Line of Credit could be made available for Pakistan to procure S-400 from Russia. At a minimum, India should not raise any objections should such a procurement be contemplated.

What language is this? Supposed to be Arabic?

What does that mean?
