Indian nuclear arsenal an asset in maintaining Asian power balance: US report

[Srinivas]

Rubbish. US wants to continue its world domination and for the moment that works for us.

The Goal is to become self sufficient and a Global power.

I think it is not just for a moment, but for a long time to come. Unless China collapse, India would remain the arbiter of balance of power.I personally believe that growth of China is good for us,

India's position would be similar to that of UK in first half of 20th century. Though Britain has ceased to be a first rate power for quite sometime, its support decided who among France and Germany would dominate Europe.

India ,which by natural progression commensurate with its resources, is expected to become second largest Economy. We would carry enough weight that the faction supported by us would come on top in this fight.

If push comes to shove, with proper training and artillery support, Indian forces can capture a lot of tibetan plateau. Ofc they have to safeguard the eastern and northern valleys from falling into chinese hands

The capture of Tibet is not a far fetched. Chinese are dependent on a single Railway line and a single one lane road to connect to Tibet.

Problem is that if India captures Tibet, it in all probability would trigger Nuclear response.And then there is Pakistan factor which would tie down a substantial part of our Army.

Tell me something, you guys have no first use policy. Obviously the nuclear bombs you guys have will be in use only as a response. So if you guys are up for the game why only you guys are bothering about a nuclear fallout ? It's not as if PLA wouldn't think it through before launching the nukes.

So if they can think it through and after proper assessment goes nuclear then India shouldn't even think twice before launching. All it needs to do is prepare nukes before the railway lines and roads are taken out. It should be as simple as that.

Trying to figure out what all possible outcomes can be there before any action is taken and seeing if there is a scenario where it leads to nuclear fallout is sign of a wuss !

Its too early to have illusions of grandeurs. India is going to remain a shit poor nation in the foreseeable future. It will take us at least 30 years of consistent growth to play any serious role in Global politics.

As long as the world trades in US currency, US will continue to be the dominant power.

Again, for the foreseeable future, Tibet is out of bounds. Not unless we make any sort of technology breakthrough that will revolutionize warfare.

Tell me o clever man, if you guys are not going for war against nuclear pak because you think there will be a MAD scenario and india being the bigger nation has more to lose so it tries to act as more responsible nation, why does that line of logic goes out of the window when it comes to ind-china with india being on the other side of the equation ?

It shows a weak character. Nothing else.

 

[DJ Crudept]

But we never joined any power block in the past nor we will do in future,Non Alignment is the fulcrum of our foreign policy ..... Sure we have our differences with china but at the Same time they are our largest trading power,so i don't think we will join any grand US alliance against china.

some people can not understand this simple shut.....
Democracies & Capitalists Countries are in USA's fold.
Communist & Dictatorship Nations are in Russian, Chinese Fold.
but. in future after 2030....
Non Aligned Countries will be in India and (Indonesia's) Fold.
there will be only 3 powers in the world 1) West 2)Russia&China n 3)Non Aligned Countries
We are creating our own Polar sir/my friend

LOL. If it shows weak character, so be it. ............. I am not really interested in proving you right or wrong.

We are waging a war against Pak. Only you are blind to it.

With China, there is no immediate reason to go to war.

 

[SrNair]

These Americans
Same guys sanctioned us in 1998.Now this

China is not our eternal enemy.We have a good relation with entire nations.
War is the last thing that we want.

ERm.. I am discussing about a scenario where india has to use nukes.. All I am saying is against a nuclear armed country, all you guys need to do is keep the nukes in ready more and prepared to fire as and when retaliation in kind is necessary. You guys shouldn't take the head ache of considering whether a nuclear fallout should happen or not because of your actions.

In a scenario where India has to use Nukes, we will.

Its foolish to assume we have spent Billions of $ and countless resources in building Nukes when we have no intention of using them when need arise.

100+ Agni V's pointed at the PRC would be a good start.

We have 200+ Nukes pointed at whoever presents a threat to our collective National interest.
