Indian Hidden Strategy Against Pakistan And China
By Sajjad Shaukat
India which had jumped on American anti-terrorism enterprise since the September 11 tragedy and covertly supported the US global agenda of neo-conservatives is acting upon a hidden strategy to destabilize Pakistan and China .
In 2007 until February 2008 a continued wave of suicide bomb blasts inside Pakistan and an intermittent war against the local Taliban in Waziristan and Swat, resulting in unrest might be cited as an example.
Regarding the assassination of Ms. Benazir Bhutto Gen. Gul Hameed and some other political experts indicated that it was an international conspiracy to destabilize and de-nuclearize Pakistan . Even Asif Ali Zardari, the Co-chairman of the PPP, in his recent interview with the Guardian has also pointed out an external hand in that connection. Nonetheless, American CIA, Indian RAW and Khad of Afghanistan might have prepared that plan to weaken the federation of Pakistan . They are also creating instability in Pakistan by supporting some separatist elements in Frontier Province and Balochistan to fulfil their common strategic agenda. In these areas, kidnappings and especially killing of Iranians and Chinese engineers in the recent past might be noted as an instance. On August 8, 2007 Major Tanvir Hussain Syed (R), the former parliamentary secretary for defence accused the American CIA of killing Chinese nationals in Pakistan to harm the cordial relations between Islamabad and Beijing.
Besides, Indian-backed separatists belonging to the Jundollah (Gods soldiers) and Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) are working against the cordial relationship of China and Iran with Pakistan . After Bugtis death his grandson, Brahmdagh Bugti is currently operating against Pakistan from Kabul.
It is of particular attention that military scholar Lt. Col. Ralph Peters writing in the June 2006 issue of The Armed Forces Journal of the US had suggested Washington about the creation of a Greater Balochistan which would integrate the Baloch areas of Pakistan with those of Iranand Frontier Province should be incorporated into Afghanistan, thereby leading to a process of fragmentation in both Iran and Pakistan.
However, New Delhi is following almost a similar pattern in case of China . On March 10, 2008 , anti-government protests by Buddhist monks erupted in Tibet 's capital, Lhasa and later on flared in nearby provinces, killing 18 innocent civilians. Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibet who has lived in exile in India since a failed revolt against Chinese rule in 1959 has been tacitly encouraged by New Delhi, enabling him to mobilize armed groups and international support to spread anarchy in China
Nevertheless, indicating the official stand, taken by the Indian government tactfully, the Dalai Lama, revealed that he wants to talk to China for autonomy, but not outright independence for his homeland. But in fact both New Delhi and Lama covertly planned bloodshed in Tibet including other adjoining provinces, motivating the people for independence.
As regards RAW, more than 25 Indian foreign offices, established along with the north-western border of our country and more than 20 information centers inside Afghanistan, are supervising saboteurs to conduct militant activists in Pakistan. In this respect, on March 1, 2008 the former interior minister, Lt. General (R) Hamid Nawaz Khan in an interview with an Arab TV channel disclosed that the United States , India and Afghanistan are involved in creating lawlessness in Pakistan by backing militant outfits involved in terrorism.
In case of Beijing, the official Chinese Peoples Daily, on July 27, 2006, denounced the Dalai Lama as a splittist and pointed out that he has collaborated with the Indian military and American CIA to organise the Indian Tibetan special border troops to fight their way back into Tibet. The Daily further pointed out that the so-called spiritual leaders violence is part of a bid for the independence of Tibet and to ruin the upcoming Olympics Games in Beijing.
There are other fundamental reasons behind Indian hidden strategy to subvert Pak-China ties and to destabilize these old friends by encouraging separatism. The next cold war is likely to be waged between two blocks, one led by the Russia and China on one side and the other one by the US and India . Fast growing economic power of China coupled with her rising strategic relationship with the Third World has irked the eyes of Americans and Indians. Owing to this jealousy, America desires to make India a major world power to counterbalance the power of China in Asia .
It is pertinent to note that on 16 August 2007 during an annual summit, leaders of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) which consists of Russia, China and four Central Asian states including Pakistan and Iran as observers, displayed their strength in a firm challenge to the rising dominance of the US in the region as well as for a multi-polar system in the world.
During the recent visit of President Pervaiz Musharraf to China, vowing to enhance co-operation in defence, energy and trade, Chinese counterpart President Hu Jintao described ties with Pakistan as a high priority relationship and hoped that these would be further strengthened in future. Under the new proposed deal, China will be able to use the Karakoram Highway and ports of Gwadar (developed with Chinese help) and Karachi for transporting its goods to the Middle East, Africa and Afghanistan.
While President Musharraf was in Beijing all major media outlets in the USA were running stories about the so called training camps in Pakistan which are also trying to cause trouble for China in the Muslim-majority region of Xinjiang. India has also been propagating secretly in this context.
At a weekly Foreign Office briefing on April 18, 2008, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi disclosed that some external forces were trying to weaken China-Pakistan strategic ties by creating misunderstandings.
Despite American opposition, Pakistan continued its efforts for the Iran-India-Pakistan (IPI) gas pipeline project. As India was delaying its finalization, pursuing a double game has now become flexible as Islamabad invited China to join the project. While New Delhi stood watching, China would also be successfully improving its own regional connections by building rail tracks in Burma , Thailand and Nepal etc.
Meanwhile, victory of the Communist Party led by the Maoists in the recent elections of Nepal has given a greater blow to the Indian-backed old Hindu monarchy which is likely to be abolished as pledged by the Maoist leader. It is another factor that India has intensified the goals of its hidden strategy against China . Hence, most of the Chinese see India as a future strategic competitor rather than a partner.
Besides, Indian and Jewish lobbies are collectively working in America and other European countries, exploiting the double standards of the west in relation to terrorism and human rights vis-à-vis Pakistan and China . In this regard, north-western areas of Pakistan and Tibetan regions of China are special targets.
Indian policy makers have the Taliban and the Tibet cards, they have chosen to use. In this context, the failure of the US-led NATO forces in coping with the Afghan insurgency and the very presence of the Dalai Lama in India along with 120,000 Tibetan refugees have provided New Delhi with a phenomena to manipulate the hostile elements in Pakistan and China
As Islamabad has decided to review its support to US war against terrorism by negotiating a peace deal with the Taliban leaders and by refusing to allow NATO strikes on the tribal areas, India will avail the opportunity to exploit this situation in widening the gulf between Pak-US ties so that Washington could directly attack the Frontier Province. New Delhi will also try to castigate the peace talks or deal with the local Taliban to achieve its nefarious strategic designs.
Without any doubt, India is playing a double game with Islamabad and Beijing as part of its hidden strategy. Overtly, in all subsequent Pak-India and China-India joint statements, New Delhi has insisted upon further improvement of bilateral relations with the two neighbouring countries, while covertly, following anti-Pakistan and anti-China policies for the disintegration of these two countries.
