Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
To me, the most damning map is the one below. These are from Nathan Ruser's tweets. He claims that there are over 250 structures and most were built since May! If so, this is a Kargil-level intel failure. Apparently, we have not been patrolling upto our LAC claim line for some years now. But that b...

Re: India's Border Security with China and Pakistan-2020
Finger 4-8 was effectively gone during Kargil when the Chinese built that road. That’s the hard reality. The reason Indian troops couldn’t fight back was because the Chinese had a road from which they could truck in soldiers by the 100’s, while Indian troops had to walk past that narrow cliff path....

Very disappointed with PMs speech.
We have happily conceded the land that our men died fighting in 1962 between finger 4-8.
If no fight, atleast we should have grabbed similar grey zone somewhere else in LAC.
Clear failure of both military and govt. this will haunt us

The chicoms have made us play their game, amass in numbers and so possible to overpower and capture where there is a brawl.
When time comes, and we escalate, it will prove costly for them. In a firefight, they will lose many many more than us.

Lets not talk about unrelated topics of trade etc etc now. They have done a violent action, we need to respond with violence. Period
If we do not do now, our deterrence value goes down till the next conflict which wont be too far.
If we do, there will be a long gap till we have the next conflict.
