we would've thrown out China in less than 15 mins: Rahul Gandhi

[Dungeness]

Now I know why Rahul Gandhi is such a joke in Indian politics. At least Modi was smart enough to not militarily retaliate against the Chinese by opening fire ... sometimes you need a coward to be in charge just to avoid losing the northern half of your country. Better be surrender Modi and lose 1000 square kilometers of your territory than be someone like Gandhi and potentially lose 1,000,000 square kilometers, including Delhi.

It only took Nehru 1 month from "drive Chinese out of our land" to "farewell to Assamese", but it will take Indian forever to learn how to match their fist to the size of their mouth.

India has not changed much since 1858. It is still a colonial state divided by religion, caste and language.

Indian people like below believe so

It is still dependent on the west. It is still mostly a resource extraction economy designed to use the labor and land of India to dig up resources from the ground and send them to the west.

Unfortunately India's Rare earth elements a precious resource is being sold off to the West

Also back when India did not have the know how to extract its natural resources, India was shamelessly exporting its women to the West

 

[hussain0216]

Political leaders are supposed to be stoic and work behind doors. You have no idea about what is going behind the scenes. China occupied a barren land that both sides patrolled. That land was not exclusively controlled by India ever but claimed by it. This may constitute a minor set back but not defeat

Sure, not humilating defeat

 

[hussain0216]

Pakistan advise the same, the thing is China is just new to the game.

No we don't BJP, Modi and Hindutva have been excellent for us

yep oil and gems are definitely not dug out of the ground. they grow on trees.

 

[Diggy]

This fool must go and say that to his great grand fathers grave. Modi has infact very tactfully hit back chinese and used this as a opportunity to do a real damage, hurt them where is matters.

It would be foolish to military escalation with chinese at this moment, this is exactly what they want and plus the chinese can always fudge actual numbers of soldiers died in any action, for them their soldiers are like some henchmen , they don't bother to honor their martyrdom. The chinese want to divert world attention from Covid accountability and crush internal strife

India's reaction is very balanced and very well thought, banning their products, hurting their consumption in India will really hurt them, preparing our people to shun their products and replacing them with local variants will create more Jobs and prosperity, the current sentiment can be used to achieve this pending objective , the modi govt has again showed how you can turn a adversity into a opportunity. The Quad association (India , US , Japan , Aus) will further make them nervous, the member countries will follow India and ban their products as well.

In China they do

But polished gems and petroleum products are not naturally occurring in rest of Human civilization

China share in India imports up 5% points in April-July over last year, despite overall decline
Trade experts say India’s dependence on China for items like APIs for medicines will continue, but not-essentials like toys & plastics could be cut back.

New Delhi: Despite numerous calls to boycott Chinese goods in the aftermath of the Ladakh stand-off and the Galwan Valley clash, China’s share in India’s import basket has risen steadily in the current fiscal, led by imports of chemicals, electrical machinery and medical equipment.

China’s share in India’s total imports has gone up to 19 per cent in the April to July period of 2020-21, up from 14 per cent in the year-ago period.

Trade data from the Ministry of Commerce shows that the trend continued in July, as China’s share in India’s imports stood at 20 per cent, up from 15 per cent in the same month last year. After two months of lockdown, economic activity bounced back in July, raising demand for imports.

Overall, India’s total imports declined by 48 per cent in the April-July period compared to a year ago, but the decline in imports from China was much slower — the figure contracted by 29 per cent.

India’s exports to China have risen 31 per cent in the April-July period, with a total value of $7.3 billion. China’s share in the overall export basket has also increased by 4.5 percentage points to 9.7 per cent. All the figures are in comparison to the year-ago period.


Trade experts ThePrint spoke to pointed out that India’s dependence on China for items like active pharmaceutical ingredients for medicines and electrical equipment will continue in the near term, though India may be able to cut back on imports of non-essential items like toys and plastics.

Now India is doomed for sure.

The Indians were worried about Modi. But it seems after him the cupboard is empty.
Even Rahul looks like a" Fenku" like Modi.

 

[xyxmt]

If you hear the claims of opposition political leaders in India, one will assume as if they are some super duper human willing to do things unimaginable to other, Like Modi was going to break Pakishtan into pieces and take all disputed areas from China. Now if you put him on your knees and spank him hard to say the word "China"....he Wont.
