While all eyes are on Venezuela & Trump’s summit with Kim Jong Un, the India-Pakistan crisis could actually be the acid test for Trump’s foreign policy.
Pakistan and the world will have to keep the redefined red lines in mind. But India can’t be complacent, because Pakistan’s compulsive bad habits return.
A noticeable effect of smoking is premature aging. Studies indicate that the skin biopsy of a 40-year-old heavy smoker can resemble that of a 70-year-old non-smoker.
Under this model, battery is provided to EV owners on a subscription basis or lease. With more people open to buying EV cars, the lower upfront cost could likely drive wider acceptance.
The armoured platform is India's first amphibious infantry combat wheeled vehicle. Last year, the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces had procured 90 military trucks from the Tata Group.
How come Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey and Sri Lanka remain constitutional, democratic and stable despite Islam and Buddhism respectively, but Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar don’t?
Why doesn’t the author — whose hatred of Modi is no secret — ask why the UPA did not augment our air force in their 10 years. Ten full years spent negotiating the Rafale deal and — was still not able to close it!!
Unconditional release of our brave pilot, Abhinandan. This is the only route to de-escalation. India should put this message in no uncertain terms to Pakistan. Regarding why the aged Mig-21 fighter planes are still being used, our political class has to answer this question. There is no plan for replacement of aging aircraft’s and all we do is to refurbish or upgrade such planes, as there is no other resort. Tejas planes were supposed to replace these planes. But firstly, there is inordinate delay in the project and secondly, HAL’s production capacity is too restricted to meet the demand.
The fact of the matter is that Mihir is not writing truthfully. He is looking at Modi’s decision to strike just in the context of upcoming elections. Given his hatred for Modi, he can not stomach the possibility that this decision can help Modi in the election. Earlier, these guys of Mihir’s sort would predict that Modi will start a fight with Pak to win the election. But unfortunately, JeM presented him with the opportunity on platter at the right time! The truth is that Modi has shown what he is capable of; he can take risks and draw new red lines for Pak. Of course, Pak will react and in the battles, there would be losses as well. Now that India has established that it can hit any terrorist infrastructure anywhere in Pak or POK, in the next round after a few months, Mihir can trust Modi to give Pak a satellite image of terror camps and demand Pak to dismantle them else India would strike. And then Mihir can drop writing on macro economic issues and convert to India Pak journalism full time to pick facts from truths.
Economics is the columnist’s forte. He might wish to write a column how these developments will impact India’s long term attractiveness as an investment destination. Kargil was a purely localised conflict. Barring that, there has been peace for fifty years. If geopolitical risk spikes, that will cause lasting damage. Doesn’t buttress our claim to a UNSC seat, either.
Abhinandan is not the creation of this bogus journalist.
And the 40 CRPF jawans who died, they are creation of whom? And countless people who have been died in various terrorists attacks they are creation of whom? Just shutting your eyes and pretending won’t help.
We should know what we are getting into. One pilot captured by the Pakistanis – not at all meant to sound dismissive – and the press conference by JS XP – an AVM seated by his side, who did not speak a word – where no questions were taken did not confront this fact head on. This is not a media narrative that can be managed or spun. Journalists – although very supportive of the national interest, as they are all over the world in such situations – will start asking tough questions. The opposition too seems to have got out of its initial stupor, will not give a walkover on this issue.
