China has been a multiple time, repeat offender on this count! Don't know why India continues to have normal relations with this rogue nation.

More evidence of Lallooo style mental retardation that the Labour party suffers from....they're looking to provide reservation for Paki students to enter Oxbridge else how will they compete with loads of smarter Indians ?

The Labour party strongly cementing its Brit Paki voter base and trying to woo the Sikhs away from Tory camp, it looks like.

Who is correct? [1] Exports, which account for over 20 percent of India’s GDP, have seen a decline of 15-20 percent in August this year compared to the same period last year, Ajay Sahai, director general of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations, said.

Chinese scholar says China should consult India on CPEC

Which is a fair point...India will be keen to apply the same pri...

If the forum can take some time off from celebrating the phamous victory at Doklam - it might be useful to recognize some signs that the ground is rapidly shifting from under one's feet.

Just take a step back and think. Building a road in remote china Bhutan border is not very high on china agenda . Core china is atleast 2000 miles away. But strongly securing the border is obviously high on india agenda. In this light shouldn't india have a better vision than ..." hey we tempo...

Aside from all the standard babu-speak, what the f*** does this new gobbledygook say about road construction ? That's the same obvious question that most of the tweet responses are asking.

All in all, if the MEA doesn't show some proof of what we have gained through the disengagement - this government will be in big time trouble and deservedly so.

Its a matter of locus standi...this dispute is technically between Bhutan and China and India cannot issue statement on Bhutan's behalf.

Arjun

From the MEA statement and that of China, it is clear that: 1. Both sides will withdraw mutually. 2. China will be allowed to send patrols as this is disputed territory and so would be Bhutan. 3. China will not resume road building (this is unstated but understood by the absence of any statement ab...

"Minutes after India's statement, the Chinese foreign ministry said, while India was withdrawing its troops, they will continue to patrol in the Doklam area"

Hmm...

Arjun

We don't have sufficient information at this stage to determine which party has suffered the 'loss of face'. The MEA has to provide more details

Arjun

Any possible outcome will be spun as a Chinese victory, even in substantial sections of our own media. If there is no stoppage of Chinese road construction - then they would be right as well ! Is there any doubt about that? I certainly hope the MEA clarifies soon. And its not just about Chinese roa...

Arjun

Why is that not spelt out in the press release in that case ? Unless that is publicized it would seem that India has turned chicken.

Arjun

Have we got agreement that the Chinese side will disengage from road construction ??

This will be played as a Chinese victory if that is not the case
