A new project Pakistan

SGIN -
India must engage with the rest of the world in search for that new creative solution which may, ultimately, be a variant of the earlier one, except Pakistan does not have a Musharraf equivalent.

Chinese checkers

SGIN -
China could be our threat number one, but it is more likely to threaten us with more plastic toys aimed at our markets than Dong Feng missiles zeroing in on Raisina Hill.
