These things are becoming more common. Too much corruption and lack of ethics of at least maintaining basic quality. A lot of this money flows into the coffers of political parties and also individuals. I fear that if some natural calamity happens then a huge amount of our newly created...

That's what crossed my mind as well - Bajwa could not have expressed such a thing to a bunch of journalists, and Hamid Mir probably has his own reasons for attributing this statement to Bajwa. I also wonder about the story of Bajwa's legs trembling during the events of Feb '19. We will...

Not clear how this is possible. If you are referring to the capability to hold Indian Army for maybe a fortnight then maybe it is true, but by then we will be severely degraded. This stops us from doing anything significant. If Bajwa has indeed said something then there is something that i do...

That's just like many of our newspapers and news channels. In fact this lack of dedication and basic work ethics is percolating across all areas. This is leading to loss of capabilities as well. And once we get self absorbed in the toxic social media world and the silly pattern of getting...

Not sure why you had to use the 'online Indian persona of sanctimony' for me. I do not see which part of my post reflects this. I am aware of some of the problems India faces due to the nature of the BJP. The Congress had its own set of problems. Nonsense is peddled by both sides. Your...

Yep. That's what i expressed which @SQ8 aka santro refused to consider in his reply to my post. Unhealed trauma of partition coupled with religious sentiments, immaturity, feeling of superiority because of economy vis-a-vis Pakistan - these are just a few reasons. After all in many aspects Pak...

The general elections in India are scheduled in 2024. At best something can happen then. I do not see any benefit to the BJP from any war with Pakistan right now. I take this Kidwai thing as the usual nonsense being peddled by your armed forces. Russia's war against Ukraine has shown how much...

No way. Right now it is not possible for us to get any benefit by initiating a war against Pakistan.

We used the airforce amongst other lethal means.

You will always lose some independence if what you require is not made by you. However collaboration in mid-level defense equipment from India is profitable for BD in comparison to the West since due to our geopolitical interests we will beld over backwards to accommodate Bangladeshi concerns...

Intelligent people (as judged from the parameter of being well educated) have always been leaving India as well. But the Indian givernment ensured that at least some institutions exist where at least a minimum number of capable people stay. You will need to have the data to know whether such a...

Not knowing how to fix the system, at least as of now, is quite different from the end of the system. The present danger is the possibility, albeit remote, of gradual winding down of the Pakistani state leaving it capable of very little. For this to happen the educated intelligent people have to...

We will not offer any peace prospects to Pakistan anytime soon, and neither will they. We both have come too far for this to materialise for the foreseeable future. Most in India are indifferent or just watching and smiling at the tamasha and deriving sadistic pleasure. If we were in the...

Problems are surfacing in many 'less' democratic countries. In India too we are witnessing lots of troubles of late. Pakistan is far more affected since you gave far more importance to such forces and the cancer has reached dangerous proportions. India is witnessing another form of imposition of...

Constructive and worthy criticism is fine even if Pak has not yet embarked meaningfully on actual fighter aircraft development, but most of the comments are in poor taste.

Its more to do with ego associated with the idea of a nation state. India does it, Pakistan does it, people suffer and perpetrate the suffering as well. The British never want to leave the Falklands etc. Online anti-Muslim Indian trolls are a minority as of now but India is becoming more...

Then i'll stop :police:. At least i gave some distraction from the boring discussion going on.

I can go the other way round and ask whether the concept of socialism and sustanence of brotherhood towards Muslims (the secular parties did not make Indian Muslims feel unwanted but did not do much for their betterment either) is worth the loss of economic growth. One could have argued that...

I do not know of any Indian defense forum that is not majorly pro BJP as of now. If you are in such forums you have to navigate through the pro BJP sentiment. Nowadays PDF is also a cesspool of India-mocking members. But there are some decent guys out here, but they choose to show a persona of...

This is an incomplete understanding but has been made popular here because of the choice PDF has made to give respect to only a section of Indian posters who post along certain lines only. BJP won in the backdrop of a very lacklusture performance of the previous UPA government. People can sense...
