More Indian troops on China border

[sensenreason]

* 15,000 troops stationed in Manipur to counter threat from Chinese influence in Myanmar By Iftikhar Gilani

NEW DELHI: Is a repeat of the 1962 Sino-India war looming large? Though played down by the Indian government for diplomatic reasons, 30,000 additional troops – with weaponry and artillery support – are being rushed to the country’s northeast region bordering China. Indian troops deployed on the disputed border with China are also being reinforced, following the second incursion in the Ladakh region in the last eight months.

More worrisome for India is the Chinese claim on Arunachal Pradesh and repeated incursions into border villages and reports of a Chinese military exercise involving 50,000 troops in Tibet. A highway built by China parallel to the border, with approach roads intruding into Arunachal Pradesh, is also a matter of concern as it can be used by the Chinese Army to move quickly – with artillery – to capture parts of the state. Not taking these developments lightly, the Indian Army is preparing for any eventuality, putting the troops deployed on the border on operational alert and increasing vigilance in Arunachal Pradesh. A full mountain division of about 15,000 troops, under the command of three brigadiers, is being stationed in Arunachal Pradesh in areas where border fortifications may be weak. This division would be attached to the 4 Corps unit, based out of Tezpur in Assam.

Growing influence: A second division of the same strength is being deployed in Manipur and attached to the 3 Corps, based out of Dimapur in Nagaland. This division would be placed on the Bangladesh-India-Myanmar axis to counter any threat from China’s growing influence in Myanmar. Since raising new divisions takes a lot of time, sources said the Indian Army is pulling officers and troops out of peace-time postings from across the country to form the two divisions quickly.

Defence experts in India are already warning the government that China might resort to a 1962 war-style gamble, though maybe not on the same scale, to divert attention from rising inflation in the country. Writing in Defence Today, a strategic journal, editor Bharat Verma claimed that China might make the move as early as October. According to government sources, such a perceived threat has been already discussed by the army’s top brass, following which the decision to fortify all positions on the Sino-India border was taken.

Sir hit rate matters. You can throw 10 missiles on us. We launch only 1 and will hit on target. Come out of your number advantage sir. Learn from israel. Now i know you will say india not israel but india stronger and israel our largest arm supplier. Hope it ring bell in your head sir. Quality weapons from israel to big country india. That's deadly combination sir.

Big country India cannot produced anything except buying.

How do you know Chinese missile is not accurate? Chinese missile can hit satellite on space! Can India do it with purchased missile?

Well, India has 90% missiles which are indigenous , And We do accept the fact that, we dont have any anti satellite Missiles... We are technologically less advanced than china... But We Both have Missiles..

Both have a good accuracy , If we launch 100 or 1000 damage will be done for sure, not only to us but also to our neighbours.

But My sincere request to Moderators will be to close this thread, This is an Illogical One, There will be obviously tight security in the borders if there are any rumors of chinese incursion, There is nothing to debate about it.

yes sir i agree china produces weapons but cheap and throw type. India in better position as our weapons miles ahead of your home made weapons sir. Even pakistan army once said they need west weapons as chinese weapons not upto level. Sir hitting sattelite aint big thing. Sattelites dont move fast. Better go and check ADD anti-missile system. Have u heard hitting bullet with bullet? Have u seen ADD test video? Better see it and am sure sir you would know what am talking about. First hit bullet with bullet that is missile by missile instead of hitting huge elephant sattelite by a tiny bullet. Thank you.

SIR; China produce cheap and throw type weapons, is it better than

India can't even produce a decent rifle for her army SIR ?

I think we developed INSAS.

By the way no point of war mongering but any war would cause causalities on both sides. Any soldier dies on the either side.... the cost is paid by the families of the loved ones for years. So we should avoid any such thing...

 

[aimarraul]

good news,more troops there ,more risk to clash

You didn't developed Insas rifle, you copy one which wasn't working

good. Here the information;

The Indian armed forces had been equipped with an unlicensed reverse-engineered copy of the famous Belgian FN FAL rifle since the 1950s. This copy is considered to be a distinct weapon (although certainly not an original design), since its parts cannot be interchanged with either the metric or inch-pattern versions of the FAL.[1]With the 7.62 mm self-loading rifle becoming obsolete in the 1980s, India began to develop the INSAS, incorporating features from several contemporary rifle designs. Although largely based on the ever-popular AK-47, the INSAS has a number of differences, making it a unique weapon. It has features borrowed from the FN FNC, the AK-74, the IMI Galil and the G3.

During the late 1980s, the Indians expressed interest in purchasing (and possibly manufacturing under license), an East German-designed AK chambered for the 5.56x45mm cartridge[2]. The deal ultimately fell through.

The INSAS system was originally planned to have three component weapons: a standard rifle, a carbine, and a squad automatic rifle (LMG), all chambered for 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition. In 1997 the rifle and LMG were ready for mass production, and in 1998 the first Indian army units were observed armed with INSAS rifles for the Republic Day Parade. The mass introduction of the INSAS rifle was initially delayed by the lack of domestically made 5.56 mm ammunition; India accordingly bought significant stocks from the Israeli company, IMI. At least 300,000 INSAS rifles are in service with the Indian army; some of these have seen action in Indo-Pakistani

Well dear if you can go through the highlighted points in the post. I think it would be lame to argue on the point that Indian revolver is copied because revolver was made by colt. Though features are borrowed from various distinct rifles it is unique within itself.
