How many Indians here would support annexation of Katchatheevu island from Sri Lanka ?

[godofwar]

Andaman & Nicobar islands themselves are closer to Myanmar than to India. We are actually lucky to have the A&N islands at all

They are closest to Indonesia which being an island country itself had probably the best claim on it.
But these things don't work on morality.

Rofl then its fine.Btw-why we are not taught these things in school like liberation of Goa by India,integration of Sikkim and some blunders like water treaty btw India and Pakistan instead of topics like unity in diversity,equal rights to all,secularism bullshit in History textbooks.

Since most Indians (including me) on here supported Russia in it's move to annex Crimea, I would like to ask what do Indians feel India should do since we are in a very similar situation with the Katchatheevu island which the Indian government ceded to Sri Lanka in 1974. now some Tamil Indian politicians are talking about taking it back ?

I presume that Indians would support India's annexation of Katchatheevu to reclaim it from Lanka ? I have been thinking about it but couldn't reach a conclusion.

What are your views on this ? In fact do you think India should make a move on Pakistani Kashmir or what about against China in Aksai Chin (if we can) ?

China, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka should work together to snatch back the territory that the Indians illegally occupy from us. We need to band together to confront India.

Several territories we had no historical claim to we inherited from British raj ...and several we lost due to British raj that we had historical reasons to claim .

It is true that the current India is molded with administrative exigencies and arrangements of British India ....

Actually China is illegally ocupying other lands but the day is not far when China will pay for its hegemonic claims like Germany.

We already have A&N.No one need a quarrel with SriLanka over these small 1.5 sq.km area.

No . India was born out after travails of painful partition and was extremely deprived the rulers had major task of nation building .

It is only natural that there were some lapses ..

Nope, first stage in improving is admission that mistakes were made.
Kashmir would been a part of Pakistan if Sardar Patel shared your happy go lucky attitude.
