@Oscar Sir
You have written this in that other thread of
11 Indian soldiers killed
SInce I cant reply there I am replying to your point here
I hope it is not against the rules
My point is that you have NO idea how passionately we Indian civilians
and Indian Army and Govt WANT to HOLD and keep Kashmir
SO we dont mind any number of casualties and expenditure
So if Pakistanis think that Kashmir is AKIN to East Pakistan ; and our soldiers are
fighting for a lost cause then they are totally and
badly mistaken
We believe Kashmir is ours but just because because the majority population
is Muslim and wants to join Pakistan ; it makes NO difference to us
We look at Kashmir as an ANCIENT Hindu Land
And plus in today's times it has got enormous strategic geopolitical significance
