China is a South Asian country, sharing borders with 14 countries including India. Its significance lies in its rise in the region and hegemonic influence over smaller countries through loans and the Belt and Road Initiative. China and India have fought a major war in the 60s and have disputes over the Aksai Chin and LAC, and tensions over the Indo-Pacific.
Long, lenthy, article as usual to defame anything India does specially Modi Government. By the way rather lecturing to public with manipulated information how much The print donated in COVID 19 Fund?
Why don’t you guys pack your bags and shift your a** to China.
Good that spoiler Pakistan is not in the funding team. What a beggar country like Pakistan can offer with it’s economy size 1/10th of Indian economy and with it’s empty ego bigger than size of smaller SAARC countries. Pakistan has nothing to offer to the world other than radical Islamic terror groups of ISI and terrorists like Osama Bin Laden etc.

Be it Pakistan or India, worst part is, that a person from wealthy family is seen ruling the country most of the time. In India Rahul Gandhi is face of Congress who hardly has seen any hardship in his life. In Pakistan also story is same. Every one among these politicians are ready to migrate abroad. They are only holding back to destabilise the country into one more Syria where these politicians have nothing to lose. Only people left to suffer will be us who has no way to go. Hence we need to elevate such a person as leader of the country who has really experienced life in a below middle class way.
There is very little India has to offer its neighbours in the Covid19 battle. It will be enough if India gets a handle on its own problems. It turns out that fecal shedding of virus is a real danger. The Modi government should build on its work in this area and warn people of the danger. And India should seek the help of China in setting up make-in-India ventilators on a crash basis. These can also be exported.
Uninteresting article.
You’re right, why would Pakistan give a damn about a collection of failed our failing nations.
India is burning and falling apart while Afghanistan has 2 presidents neither of whom maybe around in 2 years after the Taliban regain control bc of the government from these corrupt foreign planted stooges.
We humbly apologize to Nepal and Bhutan but our prime minister will not converse with a fascist nazi style government in India.
If we need support and guidance on how to tackle coronavirus we will seek assistance from our long time ally China who has successfully tackled it.
What this conference exposed are two things:
1. Pakistan is not going to relent on the Kashmir issue nor is it interested in seeking advice from a shith*le like India.
2. India ran out of library money after Modi’s failed economic and fascist social agenda.
Oh certainly ! For a country that doesn’t give a damn about it’s own students in Wuhan won’t care damn for SAARC too
Look who’s talking about “failed nations” LOL
India is in starting phase and inflected numbers can rise sharply in coming days if numbers surge in India thn India is in huge problem and India still offering 10 ml dollars near about 74 crore rupee considering situation that isn’t small amount.
Just because we have offered 10 million only have we become second rung leader.? This is more anti Modi antBJP view than by making our country small. If that brings happiness to the writer , let him be blessed with Corona and get treated in China.

The article is good, but the title is somewhat misleading. I thought that this was another Print article to denigrate India. The suggestion that India should offer material aid to SAARC countries merits consideration. If we can material to our bete noir China, why not to smaller neighbours? Anyway dear, the money is ten million USD not INR!
Very patriotic article. India can do no wrong. Modi is God. As written in an Indian newspaper, India has the cure for the cornavirus, drink your own urine and luminate like fluorescent light bulb
Cmon. Try something more original . Throwing out words like cow and urine has become old bro.
Ask him to write and focus on subject/content than PRAISING modi and slamming Pakistan. Only an idiotic bhakt would be happy with the way, it is being handled in India.
Where is there anything about Modi in here? Lol. Modi’s living rent free in your head to be so salty about him all the time that you can’t even read now . The article is written from the POV of India as a narion at the SAARC conference. The article literally said 10m is pittance and says it is nowhere near China. There’s nothing about praising Modi here .
China & Pakistan are no match for India,whether it is Philosophy, Humanity or Universal thinking.
Human inside or outside the country, help to be given. Charity begins at home. We have to yet tackle the ominous stage 3 for which funds might be needed.
Excellent analysis as usual from Iyerval.
Think of this video conference as a tentative sip of fruit juice to break a long fast. An acknowledgment that a regional grouping called SAARC exists, unlike BIMSTEC, which has no discernible organic character. That the subcontinent faces certain challenges that are best addressed through collaborative effort. Some emergent, like Covid 19, others long term, like climate change. That India has a natural leadership role to play. Perhaps the barrenness of recent foreign policy towards the neighbourhood has been recognised as being in need of rectification. One part of the course correction would be to instruct the loyalist media to change its jingoistic tone.
India has 50% of it’s population defecating in open. It’s hospitals private or otherwise are always full.people are running away from hospital Quarrantine because of unhygienic conditions. What exactly has India have on offer,?
Perfect response . Tragedy is the Mandarins will not let it Blossom. Hope MEA will grab it with both hands.
India is a terrorist state and should immediately release all the Kashmiris instead of finding faults with Pakistan. Just don’t think that money can solve anything. You don’t have one tenth the money Chinese have, and look what they have gone through. Just release the Kashmiris immediately and prove that you are not an extremist and terrorists state.
Lol. Money can’t solve anything.
Then why do you beg the Chinese for it ?
Says the person who has been filled with Islamic terrorism and propaganda.
lol we don’t need to prove anything to a failed terrorist state.
Hey if we don’t have 1/10 money of what Chinese have its ok but you don’t have 1/100th what we have so ot better to look after your country than to india’s Kashmir
” India is a terrorist state ” and this is the defence you’ve brought forward for pakistan , which let me remind you is in grey list of FATF, the name itself is self explanatory , india’s forex reserve is 1/6 th of Chinese forex reserve and 40 times of that of Pakistan, again ignorance much !! Internet services were restored more than a week ago meanwhile 144 has been imposed in pakistan . Come out of your bubble .
Porkistan is on the verge of being declared a terrorist state……at world financial body……..I think u don’t read world news ,,, ,,,so bad
Then first stop licking boots of chinese
Osama bin Laden was found in Pakistan not in India so Pakistan is a terrorist and a bull shit country right!!!.
