India must plan for war with China, Pak: US report

[Ticker]

It is indeed surprising that the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace does not know that for decades, India's military strategy is based on preparations for a simultaneous two front war against China and Pakistan. However, in case of a war with either China or Pakistan, Indian diplomacy would also endeavour to restrict it to only one theater and avoid a two front war environment.

Indian diplomacy as well as its military is also faced with growing strategic encirclement. Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are placating either China or Pakistan or both and may provide direct or indirect support to either or both in case of inimical brinkmanship. And such a specter is growing by the day due to Indian highhandedness in its dealings with her smaller neighbours.

At a certain stage during the last decade or two, Indian decisions makers were even thinking of reducing the size of their large army. Recent growth of Indian economy notwithstanding, this has not happened amongst other factors, primarily due to poor Indian handling of its smaller neighbours and they have been forced to spend much higher on defence than it used to.

Unless India improves her image and present a non-hegemonic India in its neighbourhood, strategic encirclement of India will continue to solidify against Indian interests. India therefore would not be able to add strength to her stature by continued coercive use of diplomacy and its military.

Pakistan-that is a given but China-not likely. Despite this all nations plan for the worst so it would be stupid if India wasn't planning for a war with China and Pakistan but also other contingieces in place like a coup in BD or Maldives.


I am getting more and more annoyed with the West trying to stoke fires between India and China. Such a conflict will suit their ends completly and India and China should not give these imperialists what they want.

I would argue Pakistan and China have a far worse relationship with the rest ofn the Asian community than India. India is making more and more freinds in Asia all the time.

In the ensuing environment lets see how India interferes in Bangladesh and or Maldives in case of a coup without UN permission, this time around. With growing Chinese and Russian activism in the UNSC, approval of Indian military interference in any regional country may become extremely difficult.

The Americans and the West are courting India, among certain other factors, is to countervail China. And if India does not acquiesce, the courtship may not produce the desired results for India. Infact, Indian military improvement along the India-China borders is nothing but an appeasement of America and west.

China and Pakistan may not have good relations with many Asian countries, but what matters for India is India's neighbourhood and not Djibouti getting angry with Pakistan or China.

Then stay away $hit head and eat your baloney with your own brainy ilk.

India never treads the tried and tested path which it already walked in past.

nah its appeasing pakistan to redeploy in north east.

China and Pakistan may not have good relations with many Asian countries, but what matters for India is India's neighbourhood and not Djibouti getting angry with Pakistan or China.

And india causing fear of existence to pak and formidable adversary to china makes enjoyable for it.

Make no mistake.. the response will be swift and decisive.. the only reason there was no interference in Mladives was because it was not a military takedown but a public takedown of the govt.. who will know better than you ( read WoT )

So how would it interfere in case of a coup in Bangladesh and Maldives.

Dam darood karay ga kya.

nah its appeasing pakistan to redeploy in north east.

Redeploy by raising fresh troops - this is a new theory.

And india causing fear of existence to pak and formidable adversary to china makes enjoyable for it.

WOW ...... the Indians should watch Madhuri Dixit's thumkas instead to enjoy.

Swift and decisive response only comes from those who can take swift and decisive decisions.

Then it depends upon your army to mobilize in two months for the job.

There goes your swift and decisive response.

And the public take-down and ousted President of Maldives is doing rounds in the South Block.

While you comfortably give the example of IA in 2002 u willfully choose to forget what India did in maldives 2 decades ago ?

That was 25 years ago .. now IN has a permanent presence there... so this time we don't even have to "interfere" per se !!

 

[mastaan]

Sky is not the limit....India must prepare for war with usa and should test a true ICBM and megaton nukes that can be launched from any corner of the earth to hit every inch of usa.

You watch too many military action movies mate! and, that was on a lighter note!


This article doesn't even deserve a proper read (read the headline and it says PROPAGANDA in capitals and one can ignore it conveniently)... Even I knew better that this, even before I joined PDF
