You are right coz beijing will turn into nuclear dust at that time..

I thought that indian scientist said that indian nuke test failed. So how? Indians dont even know if their nukes work

BBC NEWS | South Asia | India nuclear test 'did not work'

Aksai Chin is a strategical spot it links both xinjiang and tibet.

 

[Tractor]

Aksai Chin is a natural part of Tibetan plateau and not so important strategical.

Aksai Chin is a natural part of Tibetan plateau and not so important strategical.

Aksai Chin connects Tibet with Xinjiang,close to Pakistan ,it is like a passage way to mid Asia and a big part of India is within the striking distance from this piece of land.

LOL.. looks like written by jingo Chinese with Indian fake name. Can the OP please give the link to the original article?

 

[shuntmaster]

In the event of hostilities between India and China, China’s heavy equipment units could rumble down through the Aksai Chin, and easily run over New Delhi, the Indian capital city. Subsequently sweep across Mumbai etc. India’s economic centers, and defeat India once again.

LMAO.. This part is really funny. Attack Delhi from Aksai Chin. The author seems to have no idea about the geography of South-Asia. He suggests to 'rumble down' heavy equipment across the Himalayas ranges with some of the highest mountain peaks, as if there is 3 lane elevated highway from ladakh to Delhi at 15,000feet elevation.

This is what the original aritcle says.

“Why China retained Aksai Chin and gave up Southern Tibet?”

B.R. Deepak, C3S Paper No 739 dated February 21, 2011
(Remarks of Mr D S Rajan, Director, Chennai Centre for China Studies:

Given below is the English translation done by the writer, Prof. B R Deepak, of the contents of a Chinese language blog, last appeared at the website club.china.com/data/thread…/6_1.html dated 18 December 2010. The blog has been under the column ‘Military Observer’ of the website. The writer finds that it has already been in circulation for quite some time; it has been dispatched by the PLA Ground Forces Forum initially in mid 2009 and sometime in 2010 under a title “Next round of Sino-Indian War: China’s Armored Forces can overrun the heart of India within 24 hours”. The December 2010 write-up argues that Mao Zedongs’ decision to retain Aksai Chin and give up ‘Southern Tibet’ and Tawang was a wise move, for the geographical advantage of the former is far greater than the latter. Besides, it maintains that Pakistan is an important force in the containment of India, and China must support and protect Pakistan.


In our website, the CCCS has been bringing to the notice of the viewers similar ‘jingoistic’ articles in the Chinese language. It wishes to emphasize that the opinions expressed in the blog and those reported earlier, are from individuals and that it will not be appropriate to link these blogs either with the website, china.com or the Government of the PRC or the Chinese communist party. Important however is that at least some sections in the Chinese society are holding such views which are sensitive to Sino-Indian relations. The viewers are requested to understand the contents of the following in that context. )


Translation begins

Entire India is within the reach of medium-range firepower of China’s Second Artillery Force. To be blunt, if there is another round of war between China and India, the Chinese armored forces can over run the heart of India [New Delhi] within 24 hours. However, what stops the Chinese army from doing so?

The whole article is actually a translation from Chinese blog

 

[beijingwalker]

check the map you can see how close that land is to Indian major cities,and it's also very close to Pakistan,so Chinese aid can be smooth moved to Pakistan if there was a war there.

 

[harshad]

If we captured New Delhi in 24 hours,Southern Tibet would not be that important to you anymore.

capture new delhi in 24hrs
i am amazed at your high IQ

It is located at the high grounds in Central Asia, close to the capital and central cities of India. Its geographical advantage is far greater than southern Tibet and Tawang. If we say that Southern Tibet and Tawang are two pieces of fat meat, then Aksai Chin is ghost tower of Central Asia, and a pointed sword stabbed at the heart of India. In the event of hostilities between India and China, China’s heavy equipment units could rumble down through the Aksai Chin, and easily run over New Delhi, the Indian capital city. Subsequently sweep across Mumbai etc. India’s economic centers, and defeat India once again. Moreover, Aksai Chin is closer to the disputed area between India and Pakistan.

Apart from Indo-Pak corridor area, I do not agree with the above, Aksai-Chin is high ground, how can they take over Delhi from there? not relatively easy for air operations due to high area, supply lines difficulty etc...

 

[beijingwalker]

the infrasture there has been built rapidly and now there are many high way quality roading in that area connecting both Tibet inland and Xinjiang, plus China and Pakistan plan to build a railway connecting Aksai Chin and Pakistan.it was already made a military stronghold and well equipped base with most advanced facilities.

 

[Drone(PREDATOR)]

Moderator should ban word " southern tibet" just like P O K because its mis-interprated its culture, religion and identity of arunachal pradesh because Only monpa and kamti practice buddhism( not cantanese) out of 126 tribes and over 200 sub-tribes and last not the least tibet is not part of china or we

 

[Tractor]

Of course China could not take over Delhi even not dare to launch attack from Aksai Chin.
Aksai Chin be part of China,that is reality to make China's map not to be bitten part off.
