India - People's Republic of China Relations : Updates and Discussions


New claims of encroachment by the PLA. I couldn't find the four spots on google maps, which are mentioned in the article . But Taksing is 2.5 km from the border.
Apparently, most of those areas were already taken by the PLA during the 1962 war, and they have remained under PLA control for decades. However, there is an arrangement between both sides that allows locals to travel to those sites. Perhaps the PLA is now restricting Arunachalis from traveling to those areas. For example, the Asaphila area is spread across both sides of the LAC (more of it is on the chinese side than our side).

You can geolocate the Asaphila area, by the way. However, the publicly available satellite images are about a year old, and I did not notice anything suspicious in them.

To fight and WON a modern war. You need 3 main things:
1) A well organised ,integrated a d disciplined soldiers and officers
2) modern equipment and industry to support it during and before war
3) a great militry strategist and militry leader

2nd point, gujrati(actually gujrati baniyas and jains) helps in that.

And as you are asking about nunber of soldiers from Gujarat and Kerala then let me tell you, it is(and business which i talked earlier) due to caste and culture.

Westerns indians(punjab, haryana, himanchal) were almost 90% of officers in 1947 while their population was less than 10%.

Its because majority of them were of kshatriya caste(jaat, rajput, khatri).

Infact the mallu who are in militry are from similar kshatriya caste. Its because caste became culture, caste is bigger culturer things than region or state.

How many non-kshatriya caste people are in militry from Kerla ? As a percentage, it wont be much different from Gujrat

And the caste culture is the reason why caste based reservation failed, because it just gave a short cut to many unprivileged caste people.

Instead if caste based culture upgradation has been implemented which needed industries as it employee large number of people(unlinke IT) at middle income level then caste issue, atleast at economic level would have been very less.
I don't think that any casteism exist with military.
Indian military is one of the most disciplined militaries in the world. The were incidents (infact multiple ) military used to wait 16 to 24 hours for the orders from Delhi to fire back at pakistanis. They even stolled op sindoor when Delhi gave them orders when we had clear advantage over Pakistanis.
kerala Kshathriya cast is "Varma" ( not to confuse with the cast Verma ), i never saw any mallu soldier or officer from that cast.

Lastly, Gujjus are money oriented people (not a bad thing though ) they won't ptefer india going for war with Pakistan or china at the expense of ecenomy.
 
Why be racist toward gujjus ??

You are mallu, right ? Previous kerla cm pinarai vijayan is very big fan of Xi.

I have seen many posters on colleges and school events in kerala where people are thanking hamas(yeah hamas who rapes and kill people, inafct they even killed many indians, one was even a mallu nurse working in israel around 2020)

Modi hugging Xi is because of his socialist mentality.

Modi is Congress of 2000s + Temples( not hindus or hinduta but just temple).

Reality is that. Its socialist and communist who is responsible for under development of this country.

If we had a capitalist, market oriented PM with full majority then we would have been much better(although still we first need a PM who solves the religious and caste issue first, at any cost)
