Why air power was not used in 1962

[ranadd]

And this Independent observer is an Indian. What a coincidence.

Do not post BS. Independent observers were NOT Indian. It is your precious UNMOGIP.

And you said India lost 2000 or so land. And it is wrong as well.

Heights of ridiculousness. Admit when you are wrong and move on.

At the end of a bruising 22-day war, India held 1920 square kilometres of Pakistani territory while Pakistan only held 550 square kilometres of Indian land. The Haji Pir pass was also captured by Indian soldiers after an epic battle. And yet India returned back at the Tashkent Declaration in January 1966.

Where did you get these figures as INDEPENDENT OBSERVER is also an Indian.

Quam ki barbadi hindustaniyon ko kabhi manzoor nahi thi.

This is lame. They showed maturity for not defending Indian terrority. How dare you?

We were not expecting any war during that time and who provided satellite outputs to Pakistan forces even explain many things.

Americans refused to give us much needed ammo. They cheated us but we had to arrange them at any cost, so we did through Chinese and other sources, whats the point in it?

Well your history is too different from us Hindustanis.

Yes! We are different and thats the basis of 2 Nations theory, but better ask your leaders to stop day dreaming of conquering Pakistan. Better for the mankind.

Read the report carefully. It doesnt back your 1500 sq miles and 700+ sq miles claim.

It doesnt back your Indian Independent observer.

All you pakistanis are good at distracting things.

1. You said India lost 2000 sq mile or miles
2. Your government said they only had 250 sq miles of Indian Land. As you say, lets not take what the "Indian" Indepedent observer said about the 210 sq miles of Pakistani claims. So point 1 is wrong.
3. Tashkent declaration by BOTH governments removed any land claims. So even if point 1 and point 2 was right, they are null and void.

So please, give it a rest.

Our govt claims almost 2000sq miles of Indian terrority was captured.
Well neither it backs your claim. LOL.
You back your claim, and we do ours.

But,.. But India lost 1962.

You know that majority of Indians have rejected the partition because nation is consist of tribes and clans .

Americans refused to give us much needed ammo. They cheated us but we had to arrange them at any cost, so we did through Chinese and other sources, whats the point in it?

We are aware that Chinese have provided you the ammo but Americans placed arms embargo on us during that time.

In fact it can be safely said that the defeat in 1965, firmly propelled Pakistan into the Chinese camp and indeed initiated the process of a Sino-Pakistan nexus against India which, today has assumed a menacing threat to India. Indeed, the Pakistan-China collaboration in 1965 against India provided the template for the current collusion against New Delhi.

India had consumed only 14 per cent of its stocks.

Yes! We are different and thats the basis of 2 Nations theory, but better ask your leaders to stop day dreaming of conquering Pakistan. Better for the mankind.

Republic of India do accept soveriginity of Pakistan as Mahatma Gandhi has accepted establishment of Pakistan but even now the fact doesnt change that majority of Indians were against the partition in 1947.

You know the map is cr@p and unauthentic when it talks about some capture of Gadra city with an immaginary figure of 390sq km in Sindh but doesn't give any details about the loss of Monabao or capture of Kishangarh fort that is around 10 km deep inside Indian territory.

Anyways the thread is about 1962 war. I don't know why we are discussing 1965 war here,

The war was more a victory of India’s policy of non-alignment than a humiliating defeat at the hands of China.

Did Nehru's secret letters to JFK count as part of "Victory of India's Policy of Non-alignment"?

"A minimum of 12 squadrons of supersonic all weather fighters are essential. We have no modern radar cover in the country. The United States Air Force personnel will have to man these fighters and radar installations while our personnel are being trained."

The whole point was to show the clear nexus of China behind the wars in the region.

Cold war was at its highest level during that period of time and we Indians have struggled hard and now the results are in front of the whole world.

We Indians are capable of everything now to defend ours soveriginity and territorial intregity.

Not until you are at least capable of making decent rifles.

We are producing big guns and you are talking about rifles.

JAMMU: The Indian Army has observed the 54th anniversary of the battle of Rezang La at Chushul in Ladakh, to commemorate the historic battle with China in 1962.

"Battle of Rezang La that was fought during the war of 1962 is one among the few battles of the world where troops fought with the enemy till last man, last round and created history of their valiance in the defence of the motherland," a defence spokesman said.

He said that the troops of 'C' Company of 13 Kumaon, led by Major Shaitan Singh, will always be remembered in the annals of history as 'Bravest of the Brave'.

"Upholding the tradition of honouring our war heroes, Chushul Brigade commemorates this historic day every year on November 18," he said.

To commemorate the epic Battle of Rezang La, war veterans, ex-Servicemen and war widows from adjoining areas were invited and honoured during the function.

The event culminated with wreath laying ceremony at the Battle of Rezang La War Memorial, where war veterans, senior army officers, war widows, civil dignitaries and locals paid their homage to the fallen heroes of Rezang La, he said.

The 54th Rezang La day celebrations once again revived the memories of the supreme sacrifices made by our valiant soldiers in battle of 1962 and added another memorable chapter in the history of Eastern Ladakh, he said.

The simple aim of a battle is to achieve the objectives set out from the start . The objective can either be to attack or to defend. Chinese did so in 62, India did so in 71 but Pakistan failed to do so in 48,65 and 99. It may not have been Overwhelmingly defeated as in 71 but the failure to achieve the objectives meant that Even though the war ended without any surrender, it was the Indians who came out on top as they resisted any large scale territorial grabs by the attackers.


All these facts and figures can be skewed and manipulated, what can't change is the outcome, Simply put the one who was happier with the outcomes, was more successful.
