Bharat Rakshak

Newcomers are missing the point that while PRC may have taken over Tibet...but India also gained Sikkim, NEFA(absorbed into India) and Bhutan, Nepal (Buffer states) since the 1950s. Independence in 1947 was a momentous occasion for the Indic civilization. The significance of independence in 1947 is...

because that is the only way western civilization can survive and improve. without an enemy for existensial threat. they simpley whither away. A part of Indian media itself is controlled by west.Dont want to name them for some reason. While keeping the media aside,a majority of the politicians and e...

that is why i keep thinking that all these deals are for india buying peace for the required economic growth. the western world would be happy to see india go to war. there were suggestions in this forum that 26/11 could be such an attempt by the west itself.

whenever this mki to malaysia question is raised, there is either silence or admin warnings in this forum. strange.

i just want to understand more about what is going on between india/malaysia.

then why MKI for them? dosent that carry the risk of exposing it to the chinese?

ah the 2/3rd vote requirement! we are setting up to become a big power!! maybe this is scripted as well. just in time when CTBT ratification is required. MMS commit to CTBT subject to parliament approval.

i think india, all along, is ok with the deterrance give by the fission warhead. this was the only warhead tested in 1998. the tests were carried out under the assumption that CTBT would come into force soon after. i think india did not have any capability to make any other kind of warhead then. all...

raja ram ji, can you send it to me too at vramanx@hotmail.com

india has been peeing on the NWS for a long time. they did not care as we did not matter to them. the only way for west to make money is by selling hi-tech stuff. there is no other country in the world that need it in the scale as india nor can assimilate it like india. just imagine the amount of hi...

i never shy away from asserting my indian identity and even talk about the deep differences with pak whenever i get a chance. many of my indian co-workers do the same nowadays.

i have a romanian colleague at work who keeps telling me during lunch discussions about how lucky we are to be learning english and that is due to the british rule. my reply to him always is very straight forward. the british plundered us for 100s of years and left us with english and it is not a co...

NPAs have accepted a nuclear india. as mentioned in this forum before, the rise of india is an extremely destabilizing factor. i might be way off here. IUCNA is to give india the technology to avoid conflict and get more people out of poverty. in a very overarching way, peace could be the prize extr...

Following on from above, anything within modern democratic political practice that India can do goes in favour of this Pakistani agenda. If India concedes, and allows increasing self-assertion, immunity and power to "Muslims" as distinct "Islamic" identity and source of politica...

indians selling gold is bad news. india has the worlds second largest accumulation of gold (including private holdings). this is the envy of the world from roman times. indian gold coffers were successfully emptied once by the western world during the british rule. they might try to do it again this...

i dont know if any indian company would be able/allowed to buy stake in a foreign defense firm. the nuclear deal might change that.

i dont know if this has been posted before. terrorist interview by media

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJwiZSPMB-U

again my wish list for actions to start with

resurrect terror list given to TSP and attach a deadline for it with consequences

abrogate article 370, remove special status for J&K, and reassert that POK is indian land

implement POTA like act immediately

PM is addressing the nation at 7pm. it is one thing for maino, HM, Advani, and MOS types talking. it is a completely different ballgame when the PM talks. my wishful thinking -- he declares war with TSP and our cold start is put to real use. if IN chases this rogue vessel into TSP waters, then it is...

does take away kashmir mean making LOC as IB? or taking more territory?

our existing weapons capability has been acknowledged and we are keeping it. that itself is a big win. 50/100 - fission/fusion - modern/old --- does not matter. it will still explode. that, IMHO, is the most important thing. this forum itself has agreed that the next 25 years is the most important p...

remember that we are just 60 yrs removed from arguably the worst war in human history where japan was by no means benign. it is still paying the price. for such a nation, they have built impressive capability. as mentioned couple of posts above, their capability is nothing to laugh at. they came clo...

i think india itself might have gotten china to back off. india has multiple levers IMO

-- tibet issue escalation
-- more potent deployment to the border

it was suggested many years back on BR that this whole exercise could be to gauge the real indian nuclear capability. maybe it has been gauged and deal will die.

SALA - isnt that what trishanku swarg is all about? you dont get to have the first class apsaras. you get something beneath them. it is swarg nonetheless.
