It was a recognition swap. Happened fairly recently in 2003. No Nehru was not involved, nor was the Congress party. It actually made perfect strategic sense. Tibet was already with China and Sikkim with India.

Interesting development. Long overdue. Not so much from an offensive point of view but as a deterrent. Locating it on Arunachal Pradesh is highly symbolic and marks India's determination to claim it as an integral part of the country. We already swapped recognition of Sikkim-Tibet once before...

Your concerns are understandable. But it's not like the transit corridor will be used to mobilization of the armed forces. As far as shipment of food, fuel or even weapons goes..they are part of a cargo load. And given the terrain of the N-E, it's unlikely that any armored brigade will be sent...

ROFL..where did you pick this up. I'll humor you on this one. Over burden and Destruction of Bangladesh Infrastructure Currently you have these issues and have to take foreign loans because it is being used by local population and the funds (apart from the loans) have to come in from taxing...

It's all about perspective isn't it. Frankly I doubt any party will be popular in Afghanistan for the next decade. And this stand is simply to try and gain supporters. Whenever they do come up with significant support to replace the Karzai government, they will end up siding with at least one of...

Two mysteries of the universe: 1) Why do Indian and Pakistani members feel the need to introduce India vs Pakistan or Muslim vs Hindu in threads that have no relation to their respective countries whatsoever. 2) What do posts like these have to do with World affairs?

I don't remember talking about Pakistan. This has nothing to do with any war. It's pure,simple diplomacy. On a side note talking about bombs in Islamabad and Lahore, why would you bring up such a troll feeder here?

So basically they have a problem with everyone currently involved in Afghanistan. I could've guessed about their problems with Pakistan. Iran sort of comes as a surprise.

Yaaawn....wake me up when we get real news...

I'm confused about the negativity here. Countries around the world fight for access or control of transit corridors. Such corridors allow for massive inflow of forex without significant investment. It's just a question of using your resources correctly. Bangladesh has seen an opportunity and has...

Reason is very simple. The current government has let inflation skyrocket leading to the Reserve Bank to launch drastic measures to rein it in. These measures have made borrowing more expensive for the industry leading to slowdown in newer investments and industrial growth as a whole. The...

Awesome!!!! Especially significant after the recent India-Vietnam accord.

Figures from a GoI released budget information coupled with calculation of actual price of aircrafts involved in the bidding.

Surprising to see this. Frankly I doubt any of the developing nations would allow this. What happened to capitalist America?

Best answered by PM to avoid trolling.

Fair question. Some cruise missiles do use jet engines as well. But since the applications of the two are entirely different, the body designs will significantly differ too. So it's always better to have two seperate teams working on them. But technically,the modification could be done to have a...

Couldn't have said it better myself. Fundamental laws are best kept out of scope of religion.

That's wierd. This should have nothing to do with religion. Without getting into specifics of religious discussion, Divorce is a right every person should have.

With all due respect to my fellow Indian members in here..I don't think most people understand whats going on here.Anyone can build third party applications for operating systems,be it windows, android etc etc. Infact, willingness of companies from across the globe in building applications for a...

Actually only homo sapiens (and an additional sapiens) is human or rather modern human.What exactly did you explain?
