India's Diego Garcia in Making - Navy gains full control of Andaman and Nicobar Command

[kaku1]

It is in China's best interest to help us liberate the islands, then we can lease it back to China. Win-win situation...

why not call china to liberate India? And lease out whole India to china. BTW, the real estate in India is booming, you going to be rich.

Why would China want to give this to a useless country who cant even feed its own people and push them into India, and cant even win its own independence. Your independence gifted to you by India.

I am only concerned about our territories.

You cant even take care for your own country that was gifted to you in aid by India? And here thinking about A & N?

Yaar, the whole territory is yours. We are very "Daan veer Karan".

This decision might sound appear to be a mere transition of command from one force to another, but the profoundness of this decision will only be understood in time.

This decision effectively legitimizes, both within the tri-services and to the outer world, the demand for amphibious forces by the Navy. That probably will be the biggest import of this decision.

There has been this steady argument by the army (in its act of territorial preservation no doubt) that the Navy does not need amphibious forces; the army would commit its troops for that requirement. That argument can no longer be held valid, especially given the fact that the army would be loathe to commit its assets under the overall command of the Navy brass.

My two cents.

Mistral..Mistral...Mistral....maybe somebody has an extra one....and maybe somebody else may help pay for it.

About time. Sad we gave up Cocos Islands.

Future war between India and China will be fought in many place how can india manage to place machine for machine and men for men when it's navy is no where near China .
Thinking about choking China is far fetched dream when it's China is diverting its oil supply from gwadar and Russia . And place it's asset all around India from Pakistan to Burma .
Indian navy will not venture out of its base .
War between China and India is never going to happen because GOI knows it will cease to exist in one country.
India should know its strength and make good relationship and not ride on US bandwagon.
Peace is the only way out for indiA till it become super power .

Unlike certain other countries in the region, India doesn't need help in paying for military equipment that it purchases. If we get a Mistral (we won't), it will be paid for by the Indian taxpayers.

600 BC, the Mauryans were defeated by Bangladeshi Muslims and those Muslims took control over entire Bangladeshi Ocean..

Later from 400 BC to 300 AD, Bangaladeshi Muslims ruled all over world, Even Romans and Greek were scared of DareDevil Bangladhi Muslims...

This is an Indian occupied territory, it is an integral part of Bangladesh.

Indonesia can claim that but bangladesh

Huh....how is this India's diego garcia? Is it an occupied territory in which the original inhabitants have been displaced to make way for a huge military base like the U.S ? Anyway, seems the U.S will be taking a good look at this move for its presence/influence in the region. Overall its a good move by/for India

It means that militarily it serves the same purpose to India as Diego Garcia does to the USA. The method of aquiring each is not what is being compared.

Bangladeshis can claim anything they want here, because PDF has given them "Licence to claim". There is a B'deshi professional who often claims that B'desh is richer than India, and has higher HDI, etc etc. Don't be surprised if they claim the moon:

Regarding the paying part i very much doubt that India will take the option of "helping hand".In any case i think money is not much of a problem.

I think Diego Garcia is compared to A&N Islands becuz both will serve the same purpose
Expanding a nations naval influence

man you are really very funny....
I really enjoyed your funny posts...
P.S. i really think you need help. go see doctor..
continued India bashing have damaged your brain

I think you Indians are the ones need to see the doctor for being obsessed to find solution to counter China, I just merely responded to the section of article bragging about Indian Navy can set blockage of Chinese merchant ships passing through Indian Ocean...and now I'm accused for bashing India

Indian navy is only good to set blocade of other far far away nations such Japan or Vietnam because Indian Ocean is beyond their navy's reach to engage a sea battle against India but Tibet geographically is China's blessing and India's curse, DF-21D is the perfect solution to deter any Indian Navy, over hundred of this missiles position in Tibet will make your Indian navy useless anytime, no matter how sophisticate navy you have and still not help your cause, unless Indian navy want to find sanctuary in Africa or America
