Chinese envoy to India Mr.Luo Zhaohui’s recent sentiments on sweetening Sino-Indian bilateral ties is a welcome development.
Mr.Zhaohui has talked of controlling, managing and narrowing down differences through expanding co-operation.
Then he expressed his nation’s desire to resolve Sino-Indian boundary feuds and conflicts through “mutually acceptable
solution”.
In this context, India needs a thorough and deep home work to respond very cautiously and vigilantly keeping in view
China’s “dubious track record” so far as diplomacy is concerned.
Then holding of a trilateral summit of India, China and Pakistan seems to be a utopian and funny thought ! Mr.Luo recalled
that ” some Indian friends” did come forth with this suggestion !
The suggestion is indeed fine but for moving in that direction, first of all India has to set its own house in order !
We have to bear in mind the popular maxim,”Charity begins at home.”
If PM Modi led Government wishes to improve its ties with its neighbours through co-operation and co-ordination why should not he learn the art of controlling, managing and narrowing down differences at home first with non-BJP ruled states Chief Ministers and opposition parties to usher in an era of better understanding, co-operation and co-ordination ?
How can PM Modi imagine and think of improving relations with neighbouring countries when he can not narrow down and resolve his differences with Mr. Arvind Kejriwal ” his Delhi Chief Minister ” ?
Ironically, learning lessons in co-operation and co-ordination at home may enable PM Modi to reap successes in expanding these twin virtues abroad too !
This proverb should also haunt PM Modi all the time in the best national interests :
” Actions Speak Louder Than Words ” !
