Recently i read an article in 'THE WEEK' which completely shocked me.Did you know that you need a permit from the government to enter Arunachal Pradesh.But the Chinese government allows the people of Arunachal Pradesh entry into the Chinese territory without any visa. The Chinese government claims that why should they ask for visa from people of their own territory.The Chinese government believes that Arunachal Pradesh is part of China. They even go to a extent that the maps printed in china showArunachal Pradesh as part of China.
Even google put it that way once...............
There have been recent reports of china beefing up their military bases on the other side of the border.
The Times of India has outlined steps China is taking to upgrade its military infrastructure along its disputed border with India. The report documents five “fully-operational airbases, an extensive rail network and over 58,000 km of roads” in Tibet, as well as a nuclear missile base in Qinghai province in central China. It is estimated that China can mass two divisions (30,000) at launch pads along the border in as little as 20 days now, far shorter than the three months it once took. In addition to the five airbases, which host advanced Sukhoi-27UBK and Sukhoi-30MKK fighters, China is upgrading other landing strips in Tibet as well.
But the Indian government still does what it does best,stay silent.
we are the status quo champions of the world.We do not covet enemy territory and we have come to terms with what we lost to Pakistan in 1948 and to China in 1962.The only time we intervened militarily to alter the map was in 1971, in what was East Pakistan. We left so early it left not only the world but also the enemies puzzled.
I am not saying its a bad thing. If America had left Afghanistan that way, both America and south Asia would have been much happier regions.
It is just that we need to do somethings which we are not used to or we don't like.These are desperate times with terrorists finding safe havens in Pakistan.
DESPERATE TIMES CALL FOR DESPERATE MEASURES...
So silence silence is it our strength or weakness?
