Maya's Prescience or is it... Premonition

Maya's Prescience or is it... Premonition


PART ONE :

Today... read in the newspapers that... the BSP Supremo has claimed that the BJP leadership might engage the country in a war with Pakistan, in the near future -

aaa) To divert the attention from the core issues facing the country... and BJP's failure to deliver on the same,

bbb) Not to forget... the BJP's pre-poll promise of Rs 15 lakhs in every Indian's bank account... once the BJP came to power during... the LS polls @ May, 2014

( I have earlier written about and... tried the quantifications of the extent of the black money overseas, based on this election-time 'PROMISE" by BJP... and... aggregately used... the 'law of compounding' !! And... this money maybe around USD 300 TRILLIONS !! And... mostly in western as also this same (covertly) invested Indian money... overtly seen as western FDI... perhaps or probably runs the PRC economy and muscles up the PRC manufacturing base as also... their military buildup.

ccc) Then this question surely arises... whether...

On the back of a media-generated patriotic FERVOUR generated across the country... on the back of a war with any neighbouring country... the BJP and RSS may try to use this as a base platform... to claim victory in LS polls in early 2019 !! In which case - are there chances that fickle masses let go the # bbb) as above ??

100 % true !! ##

## As... we might have potentially seen in the case of... Kargil war with Pakistan. See the "PART TWO" of this post belows for some details on this.

Let me further... add !!

By the way- I am not sure how NDA/ BJP comes back to power in 2019, otherwise ?? For... people may be asking... where is the money ?? ( their... Rs 15 lakhs in the bank account ?? )

By engaging in any war... in cahoots with any western country... there are chances that BJP may destroy itself completely. Forever !! Let me state this outright.

I hope... that BJP does not lead the country in a never-ending arms race.

I hope that BJP/ RSS does not try to protect that enormous amount of Indian wealth... sent overseas.
In... any-which-ways.


In this context... is it that the...
The signing of LEMOA by the defence minister... points to the desire of the RSS leadership that the country sits on the lap of the USA ?? Or... is it perhaps the other way round ?

I hope there are real patriotic people in the BJP/ RSS as also on the Captain's team, who call the... actual shots ?? Merely being cadres of a nationalistic party and RSS ain't sufficient to run the country in/ during... tricky times. As... todays.

...
...
...

Now, in this context let me jog the memory of RSS/ BJP leadership with the following data and some rough extrapolations. ( Note - I had always been a thoroughly blind RSS/ BJP loyalist. But... being 'blind' is... certainly... no more the case. )...


BJP polled almost 30 % of ALL THE POLLED VOTES in the LS polls during Q2, 2014.

Let's re-work this datum. This DATUM translates to...

Assuming that... 65 % average overall voting in poll booths; And... 65 % of the population is eligible to vote. ( i.e. over the age group of 18 years.)

= 30 % of 65 % of 65 % of 128 crores = 0.30 X 0.65 X .65 X 128 crores = 16.224 crores approx. ONLY !!

NOW...
BJP MUST NOT consider that 16.224 crores people voting for BJP is TANTAMOUNT to a... MAMMOTH MANDATE !!

This also means that almost 128-16.23 crores = 111.77 CRORES approx. of the INDIAN PEOPLE have -
a) NOT considered BJP to be a worthwhile ruling party, &/ OR
b) had NO role in the election process ( => they were underage ), &/ OR
c) did NOT choose to exercise their choice !! or... chose... NOTA !!

Now... is this UNDERSTOOD by ALL the concerned parties !! Including the... Captain and his... mates ??


NOTABLE TAKEAWAY FOR THE BJP/ RSS LEADERSHIP -

In effect... NO more than 15 crores !! of the total population of the country voted for BJP ( of a total of... 125 or 128 crores ).

This roughly boils down to = 15/125 =  almost 12 % approx., of the country's population went with BJP !!

Alternatively...

= 16.224/128 = 12.7 % approx. went with BJP !!

So... in the BEST case scenario... BJP had a 12-13 % voters supporting it in LS polls - 2014. Notably... in an anti-incumbency situation in 2019 this number may NOT work out to the extent of 12-13 % ?? !!

It might very well be a single digit number !!


CAUTION !!

Moreover the Indian rural + semi-urban masses have seen the reality of the Rs. 15 lakhs carrot... doled out by BJP super-star campaigner... and are going to demand hard answers on this front in 2019. Be sure... aware... thus.

In fact... they are already showing their angst... as in Bihar !!

Wait for Punjab and UP, next year.



IMPORTANTLY... and... AGAIN...
My own prescience had guided me... that we DO NOT get into any tricky situation with either the PRC or Pakistan !!

In this context... I seek to be pardoned for NOT having a thorough knowledge of the situation, etc. ... but, my limited knowledge ( mostly gained from media )/ understanding/ gut feeling compels me to tell this straight to the BRICS members ( esp. to Russia and PRC )...

In case they want the BRICS and... especially the RIC alliance to blossom... then our mutual levels of engagement must see an ever continual growth.

That... this mutual relation ( by what-ever means ) needs to be ratcheted up, gradually.

In this context...
Whilst NRIs and PIOs well entrenched in the western society ( esp. USA, UK, etc. ) might always try to strengthen the Indo-US bonds ( perhaps... primarily for their own and their masters' selfish motives and motivations ).

And... these are moneyed and real powerful people.

This same sort of Indian crowd might be lacking in the Russian and the Chinese cities ! Notably and understandably !!

So... basically the major Indian stake-holders for BRICS and the RIC strategic alliance are the majority of the resident Indian populace ( notably more than 96 % )... rather than those based in the western countries. Let this be understood. And... I am NOT sure to what extent these 96 % + guys have found as requisite representation in the current establishment/ system/  Govt. ??

I remain one of those... who bats for BRICS.

So...
May I most humbly suggest to PRC to shelve or else considerably slow down the proposed "corridor" in Pakistan. For... this actually passes through the 'unresolved' and tricky areas of the Kashmir region.

And... it is MOST apt that PRC lets go any proceedings in this arena... till the time the Indian Govt. finds a mutual resolution on the same issue with Pakistan... understandably and hopefully with... endless dialogues and engagements. Any... other choice exercised might prove disastrous.

SO... in effect PRC MUST NOT get drawn in the PoK territories.

This basic CBM/ action... safeguards the BRICS to a great extent. After all... USD 46 Billions is NOT so great an amount !!

Maybe it is - for Pakistan. Never - for India or China.

IMPORTANTLY...
I am going to show ( in another post ) how almost this whole amount can be saved in almost an years' time. !! By any of us countries, if we so choose to. And... how ? And... why ?


AGAIN... MOST IMPORTANTLY...
those who have siphoned off enormous amounts of Indian wealth to western countries... MUST NOT get a handle to create certain situations.... sort of a pretext that forces the Indian Govt. to... muster up treaties/ agreements etc. with any western country... on a fly... on whatever pretext !!

Similar to the... British ( = Angrez ) days.

Humbly requesting the Russian leadership to ensure that PRC sees the situation as it is... rather than proceed their desired way.

This perhaps saves the BRICS... from any potential collapse down the line... and this somehow might brighten the chances that... leads to a truly multipolar world.

For... if the BRICS fails... then we are looking at a unipolar = NWO world.

For... if the Indian concerns are NOT taken care of by the premier BRICS partners, then... the Indian establishment might want to gradually/ slowly cut loose of such an alliance. And... were that to transpire. Then, down the line... sooner or later the Russians might lose the desire/ motive/ motivations for... BRICS. They might be gradually endlessly enticed/ enamored to the concept of a unipolar world wherein they have a much greater say... and choose to be an equal part of it, rather than fighting it out. This might, in that case, unfold over a... 5-10-20 years time frame. I do believe so.

For sure... a unipolar world might be dictated 100 % by the Indian elites... and their (hither-to) covert gone overt ( by then ) western partners !!

I understand that many people around the world DO NOT want to see this happening. Including myself.

I hope this apt pointer is understood and appreciated WELL by the BRICS members and stake-holders.

Now... refer for the Kargil war, the link...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kargil_War

The Kargil War (Hindi: करगिल युद्ध kargil yuddh, Urdu: کرگل جنگ ‎ kargil jang), also known as the Kargil conflict,[note (I)] was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). In India, the conflict is also referred to as Operation Vijay (Hindi: विजय, lit. "Victory") which was the name of the Indian operation to clear the Kargil sector.[17]


NOTABLY...

BBB)

Brigadier Surinder Singh, the first officer sacked by the Indian Army after the Kargil war for incompetence, has blamed the army authorities for engaging troops in catching animals for a zoo in Leh and completely-ignoring the reports of a threat from the enemy in the days leading to the Kargil war.

...

NOTABLE POINT-
I recall that way back in 1999 I had chanced across some media news that... the field officer ( or, was it Corps. Commander ?? ) in one of the regions ( was it... Batalik or Draas ? ) had informed the Army head-quarters about 'suspicious' activities or a real potential inflitration bid/ threat in the sector... started since January, 1999 and ongoing... even in February and later. But... this honest and diligent officer... perhaps a Jatt or Khatri Sikh... was penalised and immediately removed from the soon-to-be-affected area. And, posted in another far-flung region. Maybe, later... suspended. I guess... his career might have been most unscrupulously unraveled.

Why ? For... doing his duty right ?

I guess Kargil might NOT have EVER happened if this Sardar Jee officer was heeded to... by the Army/ intelliegcne top brass and... the BJP Govt. at the centre, at that time.


Ultimately...
...we see that BJP politically gained out of this 'nationalistic' fervor generated.

But... ask the family members of those officers/ jawans who lost their lives on the back of the war cry... "Yeh Dil Maange More" ?

I write this whole post... especially in context with them.



CCC) Musharraf 'spent a night in India ahead of Kargil conflict' -
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/indiahome/indianews/article-2272263/Musharraf-spent-night-India-ahead-Kargil.html


FEW QUESTIONS-

How is this possible ?

Are there chances that... the intelligence agencies and the Army were sleeping in these areas ? Or... is it an empty boast ? I am sure... this is NOT an empty boast by retd. Gen Musharraf !!

In that case- did he get any in-house Indian support, in any manner, from any Indian people in that area ?

What are the chances that any of these INDIAN guys are in high positions in the system or within the Govt., presently ?? Can anyone make out ?

Supposing that the boast is true... then... have any of these guys erstwhile posted in the locale been given out of term favors/ promotions, since that times ? Or, even their relatives ?

Ultimately...
...we see that BJP gained out of this 'nationalistic' fervour.

I hope and wish that BJP/ RSS understands that the Indian masses may NOT want to see any war in the BJP's tenure. This time around !!

BETTER NOTE THIS !!

They better understand this. And... understand this way-too-good !!


END NOTES -

111) BTW - USD 300 TRILLIONS is such an enormous amounts of money that nearly 7-10 crore of Indians can easily go and settle down comfortably in diverse foreign lands. Forever !! And... they may not care even if the this motherland is perpetually engulfed in endless internal strifes and wars.

These guys may choose to come back as and when the situation settles down and betters... per their needs/ requirements.

< EoP >

Served on THE Table... nay... Plate

Served on THE Table... nay... Plate


There are THREE parts of this post. Two parts follow here.

But... the MAIN PART follows later... in another post.


I am laying out a table and some 'dream' to-be-had-items on the table. Then... I go on to tell... who ALL sits on the head of an ALL oval table ? Who are the guys standing ? Who are all the stake holders ? etc. And...how to get the 'dream' to-be-had-items that are laid out... on the table.


PART ONE :

Heading the Table


Who gets to sit on the HEAD of the table... i.e. the stake holders...


1) All the remaining freedom fighters of THE "un-partitioned" country. i.e. those who are still... alive... and kicking.


2) The remaining/ existing family members of every of those freedom-fighters already martyred during the cause of fighting the British mis-rule.


3) All the maimed personnel ( alive ) of our armed forces, since the time we gained independence. Else... their dependents.


4) The immediate family members ( widows, dependents, parents, etc. ) of any martyred personnel of the armed forces, since the time we gained independence.


5) All the members of the existing armed forces. Priority shall be using... "bottoms up" approach. That is... the least ranked member of the armed forces ( say - a soldier or a sailor ) gets priority here... over even a General or an Admiral or an Air Marshal.


6) All the Professors and all the teachers in all the major technical/ scientific/ engineering institutes in the country.


7) All the scientists and engineers working in ( esp. Govt. sponsored ) - nuclear, defence, military, ICT, aeronautical, space research, hi-tech R&D, etc. sectors/ space... all across the nation.


8) All the smarter students in all sorts of schools and colleges ( whether - engineering, science & technology, management, etc. ), right across the nation.


9) All the senior citizens, across the nation. The oldest/ olders gets the highest priority, to be invited to sit at or near the head of the oval table.


10) Some well-known and proven(ly) genuine spiritual and religious Heads and Godmen. None of whom are... money and/ or publicity seekers/ types.

11) All the females of the Indian race.

And... not to forget... the eunuchs ( hijras or chakkas ) also get ample space to sit on the table. After all... these fellows have the highest stake !!

...


NOW... All the others remaining...

I mean that the rest of the population gets no place to SIT on this table. They ALL get to stand and try to partake of/ utilize whatever is laid out on the table.

And... the standing populace have to depend on those folks sitting on the table... to partake of the feast.

And... not so... directly.


Meanwhile... the mangy cats ( perhaps... drunk with the wrong kind of milk ), as usual, must... keep keen watch. For any potential law and order issues/ situations. Sans all their occasional... 'awara-ness' nay... aware-ness and 'bewda-panthi' !!


...
...
...



PART TWO:


We have seen dream peddlers... actually... 'sapnon ke saudagar' types. And... the way they are going... these guys are proving to be no better than the others preceding them. Observed... thus far.

Ways and methods are different, though.

So...
here I am laying out a table having certain 'dream' items that are... up for CERTAIN materialization.


So... let me enumerate the listed ITEMS on the table...


The 'dream' ITEM list follows, here-withal...


(ONE)  A fully pan-country bullet train 'secured' network. 100 % fully secure, every which way.

Planned... designed and executed... to be fully rolled out and fully functional within a 7-10 years time frame !!

The planned network is - throughout the country. What I might be implying means that... the NDA-2 planned Diamond Quad will look highly inefficient and ineffective. Not too good time-line, the way the GoI plans and executes deliverables. For... it might take at least 20-30 years to realize the same.

This latency is... NOT really desirable.

For, the way the Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train is planned to be rolling out ( by 2023, say ). I guess that... for what I am putting out as THE 'dream' items on the table ... might take eons for the GoI to deliver.

So, let me outline what I have in my mind...

Now... what we are looking at... is... something like...

Magnetic Levitation ( Mag. Lev. ) based super-fast bullet trains ( Perhaps Japanese technology, with speed touching 500 kmph ) in ALL of the following nodal lines -

1) New Delhi to Mumbai, 1400 kms, say
2) New Delhi to Kolkata, 1500 kms, say
3) New Delhi to Bengaluru/ Chennai, 2000 kms, say
4) New Delhi to Lucknow/ Kanpur, 350 kms, say ( This might be part of the New Delhi - Varanasi- Kolkata link )
5) New Delhi to Jammu ( via Chandigarh ? ), 1200 kms, say
6) Mumbai to Chennai ( via Bengaluru ), 1500 kms, say
7) Kolkata to Bengaluru ( via Chennai ), 1800 kms, say
8) Chennai/ Bengaluru to KanyaKumari, 600 kms, say
9) Kolkata to Mumbai ( via Bhopal ? ) 2300 kms, say
10) Miscellaneous short distance links around any of these major metros - another 2,500 kms, say

Roughly, totaling to = ( 1400+1500+2000+350+1200+1500+1800+600+2300+2500 ) kms = 15,150 kms approx., say

Let us round this off to an upper limit of 18,000 kms !! of fully networked MagLev based bullet train !!

BTW, as per my knowledge and understanding - Japan has the best technology on MagLev based bullet trains !!

...
...
...

FEW KEY POINTERS, HERE...


AAA) Few STATS, for due consideration -

The Mumbai-Ahmedabad proposed bullet train is scheduled to be completed by the year 2023 ( almost 8 years in the making ). And... is going to cost something like INR 100,000 crores . On pretty easy terms of loan provided by the Japanese banks.

Currently, USD 1 = INR 67.5

So, USD 1 BILLION = INR 6750 crores

Now... INR 100,000 crores = USD 100,000/6750 BILLIONS = USD 14.82 BILLIONS = USD 14820 MILLIONS ,or

= USD 15 BILLIONS approx.

Now for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad distance of 530 kms ( say ). This works out to -

Per kilometers cost, for the bullet train = INR 100,000/530 crores = INR 188.67 crores / km

Alternatively, in USD terms, this is akin to = USD 14820/530 MILLIONS = USD 27.96 MILLIONS = USD 28 MILLIONS / km

NOTABLY -
Sometime back I was reading online ( some website ) that the proposed Moscow to Khazan ( Perhaps the capital of Kazhakistan ) is expected to cost USD 16.6 BILLIONS. This costing... for a 770 km stretch.

In this case, the per km cost for this stretch works out to = USD 16,600/770 MILLIONS = USD 21.56 MILLIONS !!

Can YOU ALL see the difference -

1) In India it costs = USD 28 MILLIONS per km of the line,
2) In the Moscow-Khazar link, the per km cost is = USD 21.5 MILLIONS per km of the line,

IN EFFECT -
A difference of = 28.0 - 21.5 = USD 6.5 MILLIONS per km !!

Why SO ?

Can the Govt. explain ? Also... the technical experts. Please !!

So, the Mumbai-Ahmedabad link seems to be costlier by = USD 6.5 X 530 MILLIONS = USD 3445 MILLIONS !!

= INR 3445 X 6.75 crores = INR 23,254 crores !!

Why so ? What's the difference ?

Btw... I am NOT suggesting any wrong-doing here. It may have to do with the underlying technologies involved. As also the terms of the loan and the interest to be paid.

Alternatively, that might not be so. For... we are in India !!

...

Now, per the above deduced figures of INR 188.67 crores or USD 28 MILLIONS per km of the bullet train line.

For, 15000 km this works out to  =  15000 X ( INR 188.67 crores or USD 28 MILLIONS )

= INR 28,30,050 crores or USD 4,20,000 MILLIONS or USD 420 BILLION !!

POINT to be NOTED !!


But... if we use the system/ costing as between the Moscow...Khazan line then this works out to = 15000 X ( USD 21.5 MILLIONS ) = USD 3,22,500 MILLIONS = USD 322.5 BILLIONS !!


Can one see the difference here... between... USD 420 BILLION and USD 322.5 BILLIONS !!

A difference of almost = USD 97.5 BILLIONS approx. !!

Can anyone explain this, PLEASE ??



BBB) There are massive amounts of sky-high mega buildings/ structures and a very high density of populations around the majority of these... INDIAN MEGA-CITIES.

All these highly unplanned Indian mega-cities have been seen/ and are radially expanding outwards around a certain central core of any of these mega cities. With the exception of the coastal mega-cities... that generally expand in..wards.

And... the pressure on the land on almost all these mega cities is... WAY TOO MUCH !! to ignore.

Importantly... most of these mega-cities in the northern/ eastern/ western parts of the country are sitting on high-danger SEISMIC zones/ belt. Attributable to the tectonic (slow-shifting and continuously colliding) plates in the Himalayan fault lines.

Which... (potentially) jealous nations may ostensibly tinker with... using the high-end technology that constitutes their arsenal. In which case... are there chances of mega earthquakes ( above - 7.5 or 8 on the Ritcher scale ) anytime in the current or future times ?

Now... this is something which cannot be ruled out !!

If this were to occur... then such a catastrophe might lead to MASS-ive destruction of life, property, infrastructure, etc.

In effect - the Indian economy will be badly hit. And... several hundreds of billions of USD of re-investment ( mostly... one-time expenditures ) might be required to slowly get back on track by putting back the key infra-structures. And... even this takes at least 5-10-12 years to revert the situation... to a certain normalization.

And... most of this money would required to be taken as expensive loan from World Bank or from the newly formed ADB, etc. !!

So... there MUST need be a SOLID plan for a MOST suitable risk mitigation, in this regards.

I can observe that the GoI has NO such plans... on the ground.

Therefore... this MagLev bullet train network might be highly effective in any further checking and containing the inherently ever expansionist tendencies of all these mega-cities.

What I do propose must be taken with apt seriousness.


FURTHER...

CCC) people may live possibly HUNDREDS of kms away from their place of work and commute daily, with ease, to these mega cities. Even so... the regular college going students.

Now... people NO LONGER have to or... need to pay for very expensive real estate ( say... to stay in expensive apartments or rent very expensive offices ) in mega cities and take hours to commute to nearby work locations.

In so much as... now people are deterred from clouding these mega cities, with their presence.
They can very well choose to stay 100-600 kms away from these locales. That is... one or two hours OFF, from the cities.

Effectively...  we are looking at mini and micro satellite cities... all part and parcel of these mega cities.

This allows potentially SEVERAL new micro/ mini town-ships to come up along the actual route of the bullet train.

Say...
Every 30-50-70 kms away. This same intra-distance is... a distance that is coverable in say 3-5-8 minutes !!

This...
Same might be the case... say, in Japan.



DDD) The bullet train network must be designed and laid out in a way so that... it takes a MAX. of 6-8 hours to reach FROM any one corner of the nation TO any other location\ corner.

At MAX. - 6-8 hours !!

Say... from Kashmir to... KanyaKumari. Else from... Rann of Kutch, Gujarat to... any parts of the north east !!

This might mean that the domestic airlines industry might go nearly phut. And... rightfully so !!

That ways...
We DO NOT want to be spending 100s of billions of USD in importing Boeing/ Airbus planes and in the process creating mega airports. To handle the ( projected ) domestic airlines industry !! As also, the expensive gasolines that power these airplanes.

NOT REALLY REQUIRED !!


EEE) The bullet trains network might provide a mega thrust to the domestic tourism sector/ industry.

With the right kind of tours packaging... highly likely that the international tourist inflow starts to grow exponentially.

This might result in almost hundreds of billions of USD in FOREX earnings, perhaps on an annualised basis !!

Say... we see an exponential growth of intra-country tourism... As... more and more of the rather well-off Indians choose to spend and splurge in domestic locales rather than go to overseas locations, to spend the Indian monies overseas !! There might not be any further... incentive for that.

Most importantly... the international tourist inflow starts to grow massively, on an annualized basis.

All this potentially creates a TOURISM mega-industry that bypasses our agricultural component to the GDP !!

Say... this... within a 20 years' time frame !!

Point MUST be noted !!



FFF) In the present situation... say...

if a big RAJAH ( King ) type land-owner having ( say ) 10,000 acres of agrarian land in some far-flung location of the country... has the land valuation @ INR 1-5 lakh / acre .

Total value of this King's... 10,000 acre fiefdom works out as = INR ( 1-5 ) lakh X 10,000 =

= INR 10,000 lakhs or INR 50,000 lakhs = INR 100 Crores ... TO... INR 500 Crores .

In case, this 'RAJA' gets to make the maximum NETT income or profit of = INR 20,00-30,000 / acre on an annulaized basis.

The maximum he gets to make, annually is = INR 20,000-30,000 X 10,000 =

= INR 2000 - 3000 LAKHS !! = INR 20 - 30 CRORES !!

A maximum of say - INR 50 crores or INR 100 crores !!

Compared to the above... Now... say...

someone has a 2-5 acre of land in a residential+commercial location in any of these cities - New Delhi/ Mumbai/ Chennai/ Hyderabad/ Bengaluru/ Kolkata/ Pune, etc. mega-cities.

And... (s)he develops the land and constructs a 20 tower high commercial+residential mega complex.

This man can make mightily more money out of this mega complex than the RAJA ( King ) in the village. Easily generating a couple of hundred crores every year !!

Piece of cake for this "smallish kind of" enterprise of the small time ( say ) farmer who inherited this 2-5 acre of agricultural land from his fore-fathers !! Say... some 30-50 years back !!

Can anyone see and make out the palpable difference ?? !!


Btw... with a full-fledged efficient, effective, highly secure and fully-functional bullet train network...


All this vagaries of demand and supply paradigm might soon be seen to be vanishing.

And... the mega prices of all those mega properties ( all highly inflated by land and property sharks ) will... TANK !!

There has to be a way for things to be levelling out !! And... it is... HIGH enough time... for that !!

This... is going to happen in... the near future.

GGG) This potentially provides for... almost greater than two-to-five millions of direct and indirect jobs.

This might mean - the lives and livelihoods of almost 5 to 7 crores or more people might be taken care of, in the Indian economy, going forward !!

I might... roughly... lay out how ?? And... tell how and why ? And... why not ?

Is this ( a rough guesstimate ) a small number... not for the GoI and the Indian people to take note of ??



HHH) The current Indian railways may use the already established rail network for -

- 5-500 km travels . Perhaps, at best, overnight travels.

- the Indian rail network was set up by the Brits for essentially... the movement of goods across the nation.

Going forward... this...
Must be used primarily for the movement of freight and logistcis, mainly, down the line.



III) People may board the high-speed bullet trains with... bare-basics of luggage accompanying them.

For... they may send their luggage in advance, to be picked at the 'luggage pickup offices' somewhere near the destination end-points. The same luggage may be forwarded by the already laid out railways network, to the destination address. At some nominal charges.


...
...
...



(TWO) Massive levels of decongestion of the roads. Across the nation. Perhaps worldwide.

What I am about to propose has... implications that are having a - 100 % worldwide scope.

NOTABLY-
We have seen almost 25 km of road jams in Gurgaon.
The same in Jakarta, Indonesia around the holidays season around the occassion of holy festival of Id.
Similar ways... for some 20-30 km long end-to-end traffic jam, in some place near-abouts Paris.

Same is observable in many parts of almost all the major Western countries. Esp. the USA.

And... this is a continuous phenomena in many cities or PRC ( per some recent media reports ).

We daily see this... end to end bumper traffic... in almost each and every Indian mega cities. And... smaller ones too.

And... the Govt. and the civic authorities have no clue as to how to successfully and conclusively beat this burgeoning menace !!

And, all these guys around the globe ( the respective Govts. ) seem to be stoking the same fires... in the name of "VIKAS" ( development ) !!

This paradigm... MUST change !! Ought to !!

...
...

INTERESTINGLY...

We may have seen wannabe "IIT under-grads" lining upto Kota classes... and, sometimes, for years... to successfully crack (??) the IIT-JEE 'ek-jam' nay... exam.

Interestingly... for the very first time... we might have seen an IIT alumni running off perhaps to... Shanghai ( or is it Beijing... ? ) as part of his sabbatical... and then after returning back... hollering around... odd... nay even... nay... odd !!

Well... well... it ain't working !! And... I conclusively DECLARE... it won't !! EVER !!

It is NOT supposed and meant to !!

...
...

DESIRABLE... IS...
Massive reductions in the levels of the automobile fumes that are emitted. This... on a global scale. Across every major/ minor city/ town across the nation and throughout all the continents.

This... MUST have a positive impact on the global warming scenario.



(THREE) High impetus and thurst on... Research and development of THORIUM based nuclear power reactors.

This has to be used for in-house power generation as also in manufacture of indigenous nuclear sub-marines.

Time frame to 100 % success in about : 5-7 years !! Max !! And... I mean this !!



(FOUR) The number of Indian doctorates ( actually - IIT and IISc grade PhDs ) to be increased by almost 5,000 to 10,000 per year, on year-to-year basis. This might include some good number of... research scholars, too.

And, the hi-tech research professors ( around the country ) by almost 1,000. In steps... every year.



(FIVE) Massive thurst IN/ ON the area of Cyber Security.

MOST DESIRABLE...
Indigenous... IC Chip design, development and security in ALL the forms, formats and scale.



(SIX) 100 % Organic Farming throughout the nation. And... 100 % Non-GMO primitive seeds based farming.

Btw... Any GMO tech must be sourced from within the nation's indigenous R&D institutes. i.e. within the... Govt-run frame-work.


END-POINT ON THIS -
We NO WAY WANT to be paying the overseas companies for insecticides, pesticides, fertilizers, seeds, etc.

Thereby... adding to... and... increasing our imports burden.

Must ensure... adequate food security for the entire nation. At least for... 7+ years' of food-grains storage.

Hardly matters... as to how... we may achieve this.



(SEVEN) Thrust on native and indigenous R&D Development and improvisations in the defence sector.

Highest priority...
Indigenous design, development and manufacture of nuclear-powered sub-marines.

And... in-house R&D in the cyber space arena. As also- the space sciences. Those in this line of work can conclusively draw the required focus.

Pointers... Study/ R&D on... the electromagnetically induced EMF... this... wrt a specific frequency... this... coupled with the resonant natural frequency of an object... THIS... as (mis)used in the defence or commercial industries.

Just a pointer... using obsolete knowledge and understanding...
...a high-beam energised and directed electro-magnetic zaps may potentially take critcial IC chips out that may cause the whole system to fail. !!

Are our 'experts' expert in this domain ?? See any reason to develop... in-house IC chips ??



(EIGHT) Accretionary and continual replenishment of our FOREX reserves to new high.

Must be done... piling ON... on an annualized basis.


We must have...
other major currencies, as well, as part of our forex reserve.



(NINE) Thrust towards promoting the tourism sector. As an enabler to- prop up the economy, earn some FOREX, etc.

To get a very rough idea... as regards the tourism potential.

http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/nri/visa-and-immigration/india-may-gain-80-billion-per-year-on-relaxing-visa-regime-chinese-media/articleshow/53520506.cms


When we factor in the inflow from the whole world... then the cumulative accruable figure goes up four to six times... all upwards !!

I guesstimate... over a 5-7 year time period. Grounds for this have to be prepared.

Btw... many a nations around the globe... and their robust economies, run around... the entirety of the tourism sector/ industry , alone.

This fact...  MUST NEVER be forgotten.

In effect...
Each of the Indian states MUST leverage their inherent potential to the very maximum. How... they achieve this... is up to them.

Now...
In this context...  can anyone tell... and throw some light, please...

if an international tourist were to source some liquor while touring through the state of Bihar ( by paying some exorbitant amount of money. Bihar is supposed to be dry. But... for the right kind of price you can get EVERYTHING. This thumb rule works EVERY-WHERE !! )... and (s)he is somehow careless to be subsequently caught by any very diligent and a truly (bh)igilant Bihar police/ authorities... and sent to jail without any bail ( To be found drunk... is a non-bailable offence, in Bihar. As I understand ) Can anyone tell... what happens then ?

To the proposed... Buddhist circuit, as well ?

You screw one guy... and then they go back and yell... and, tell... and... no one comes back for more of India. After languishing in the Bihari jail ( sans a bail ) for... eons ( by that foreigners' standards ).

"Atulya India" i.e. "Incredible India" goes phut here !!

And...

Our endearing entreaties of... "Atithi Devo Bhav" goes for a toss... with all... nett loss !!


Think about it !!



(TEN) Aiming 95%-98 % preservation ( without any loss or spoilage ) of the vegetables and fruits produced throughout the nation.

Construction of : Cold storages. Cold chains. Supply-chain management etc. across all the districts in all the states.

And... trying to get to export this ( mostly... 100 % organic ) produce world-wide !!

Must produce organic fruits and vegetables for international markets.

There needs to be fully INDIA-owned markets right across the world ?? But... do we need to see and... quantify the liability in this.


(ELEVEN) Indigenous R&D in the arena of CLEAN-TECH.

Massive thrust on the Solar energy based clean technologies.

Development of highly efficient and effective... indigenous wind based technologies and wind turbines.


Aim and objective is... to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels to the 19th century levels. Say... 0.5 - 1.0 % of the current national consumption.

Within the oncoming... 10-14 years' time frame.



(TWELVE) Greatest focus on - Water conservation and preservation.
Potable drinking water for all.

Replenshing the underground aquifers, to the fullest. Within the span of 10-14 years time !!



(THIRTEEN) Development of the humped ( desi ) cow.

Best quality R&D to... make them yield more milk per humped/ desi cow.

R&D effort : towards getting them to munch on... green grass.

So... development efforts towards development of lush 2-3 feet long grasses. These type of grasses used to be plentifully found near... rivers, ponds, streams... in days of yore. Some of these strains... might still be around. The challenge might be to have these type of grasses growing in all the regions across the country. With minimal water requirements.

Here... some indigenous GM engineering to enhance the growth might be required.

For...
Green grass is the best fodder for the humped ( desi ) cow. And, then... see the yield.



(FOURTEEN) Massive afforestation drive. Across the nation.

To... increase the green cover... accretionary... and... on an annualized basis.

This has the additional benefit that... the chances of monsoon failing might be... this way... be minimised.



(FIFTEEN) Massive thurst to give boost to/ proliferate- Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Naturopathy, etc. versus Allopathy.
( Angrezi... generally, almost all inorganic medicine that accretionally... settles in the liver !! )

For... prevention is... better than cure.

And... this also further goes on to massively reduce our... drugs or pharma import bill.



(SIXTEEN) Digging of 100,000 to 500,000 small to medium sized ponds, across the nation. On an annualized basis.


Focus on irrigation... as also... this actually replenishes the under-ground aquifers.



(SEVENTEEN) Apiary Development. Bee Farming. Organic Honey Production.


Foucs on- date, palm, coconut, etc. derived bee and honey farming.



(EIGHTEEN) Thrust on the electronics sector. As also - native IT solutions development.

Idea is to massively reduce dependence on... almost all the overseas imports, on these counts.

...
...

Design, development and assembling of mobile phones, smart phones, pads/ notepads, laptops, desktops. And... almost all the IT peripherals and adjunct items.

Idea is to... massively reduce dependence on these... overseas imports.

For... all these imports runs into couple of... HUNDREDS of BILLIONS of... USD $$ !!

Need a MOST ROBUST working strategy... to minimize the nett imports on an year-to-year basis.



(NINETEEN) Great impetus to STARTUP culture/ climate/ companies.

Due focus on- Seed funding. Seed capital.

What the NDA-2 Govt. has started off... as "Startup India... Standup India" ... actually the UPA-1 Govt. should have... MUST have started this... almost TEN-TWELVE years back !! At...the very start of... UPA-1.

Truly stating this !!

Then... chances are... we might have been currently seeing at least many matured Indian start-ups that would have become MULTI BILLION USD $$-profitable enterprises/ companies.

And... the sector would have, AS OF NOW, seen some... requisite amount of maturity.

ITEM-
Need to fund... ( with at least INR 10,000 crore seed fund/ corpus )... at least -

- 10,000 companies a year.
- 1,000 companies a year.
- 100 companies a year.

Or, a mix of the above. With some joint private or Govt.-sponsored holdings.



(TWENTY) Construction/ facilitation of world-class MEGA-SPORTS COMPLEXES in every district of every of the states. Around the country.

Thereby ensuring... great thrust on sports and all the related activities !!

Aim here is : We get to be ranking amongst the top 10 or 15 in the next Olympics. Rather than at throw-away ranking of... 67 !!

Every district in the country MUST have at least 2-4 mega sports complexes !! All this... within a 10 years frameworks !!

I might as well outline how some private companies might sponsor some promising sports-(wo)men ( with some minimal investment risk ) so that they may avail of some good amount of tax breaks, as reward.



(TWENTY ONE) Thrust towards production of fruits and nuts. For domestic consumption and export.

This, too, is very very important.

...
...
...


The extended 'dish' list could be potentially much more elaborate and extensive.

Wherein we may have an extensive "Chhappan ( = 56 ) Bhog".

But... we'll rather focus on... and partake of this 21-item dish-list rather than an extended and extensive "Chhappan Bhog...s" ... on the table... nay plates... of every Indian.

If we find that the 21-item dish-list is easily realizable... results seen over a short period of time... rather than a figment of wild imagination... then we shall endeavor to move onto the extensive "Chhappan Bhog" elaborate dishes.


NO... PIPE DREAM... THIS !!


THE COST FACTORS INVOLVED HERE, IN THESE DISH ITEMS ARE PROBABLY... VERY HIGH INDEED ???

AND... I MIGHT AS WELL TELL... HOW TO PROCURE THAT AMOUNT !! OUT OF... THIN AIR !!

MIND and THOUGHT MATTERS actually !!

Talking of treasure troves... here !!


< EoP >

Where is the Ball ?

Where is the Ball ?


PROLOGUE :

POINT TO PONDER -

Whilst a set of closely networked people seem to have hijacked the whole Indian system... since we gained independence. Seems like... the situation is no different even today. Surely... 100 % political objectives/ motives/ motivations have seen these set of guys invade my ( + the entire family's ) privacy since the past 2-3 years. On whatever ( ?? !! ) "cooked-up" pre-text. This is... quite plainly obvious from Captain's blog. And... still these set of people have the unbridled gall to go along with their almost overt agenda in the most viciously vile a manner.

{{

Factually and frankly speaking...
If... I have made a mistake... then you ALL have blundered. Tantamount to an egregious blunder... which MUST NOT ... and MUST NEVER BE... EVER pardoned.

Remember this... the countdown has started right from the 1st of February, 2015 !! For... certain things are NOT to be ever forgiven and forgotten. The 15 year's reverse count-down has started. Consider this a CURSE. And... duly make note.

}}

I do so believe and... therefore, suggest that...
These set of guys' cumulative (c)overt web has a VICE LIKE GRIP over the ENTIRETY of the ( pan ) Indian -

1) Government ( and, therefore to a great extent... on the governance of the country at the village, town, district, state, regional, national and the international level/ arena... ). All the form/ format/ scales.

2) Vicious (c)overt grip over the... law enforcement agencies/ system ( this includes the police, ALL aspects of policing... and... the legal services, adjunct functions, etc. ),

3) judiciary - any/ all form, format, scale,

4) any/ every facet of the administrative/ legislative wings of the governance - all levels,

5) the national security agencies ( IB, MIS, RAW, etc.),

6) our MUCH veneered and highly decorated armed forces,

7) the diplomatic services ( foreign services ) and... each and every levels of the BABU-dom ( i.e. bureaucracy ),

8) manning the top echelons of all the major and/ or minor corporations ( whether- public, private or joint ventures ),

9) almost all the scientific and R&D institutions around the country; even... a great many overseas ones

10) a massive number of socio-economic and socio-religious bodies... (c)overt platforms whose sole aim is to have huge sets of ever expanding followers. This ensures an almost loyal MASS-ive gatherings/ groupings of followers... that certainly might have the covert primary aim to be a HUGE money spinner for those guys running 'ze' show. Either overtly or covertly !! Secondarily... this tremendously helps these guys 'running the show' in galvanizing their blind followers/ masses on social issues/ political lines, etc.

11) Perception makers and moulders. All pervasive. Every forms/ formats/ scale.

12) Our best of the class educational/ technical institutes,

13) Industries, labor unions and trade bodies,

14) Media, media houses. Journalists. MSM, etc. Movie and entertainment industry/ business, etc.

To say... every position/ situation which has an element of... money, power, influence, 'maal', mullah, etc. at the very core; or... as part of the massive web-like spin-off created by a fully networked sorts of... "Tilismi" set of people.

So... we can see that the list may be... conceivably endless !!

...
...
...


Now... factually speaking...
Some of these set of closely inter-networked people ALONE seems to have the balls. And... these guys are on a major... ball busting spree, (c)overtly.

Doing... left... and... right !! As... people might have observed on the 'tankered blog' of the Captain.

'Tankered'... because the 'quick-to-action' Captain chose to mindlessly run... and blundered... gunning... for me.
If I were in his place as the Captain... I would have patiently waited for 'the distracted loyal follower' to return back, sooner or later. Rather than bellowing out repeated warnings from the tankers' mast pole !! After all... his 'tanker' is akin to a spiraling bhortex... nay vortex, where people are pulled towards to, and return sooner than later.

This 'tinkering' actions i.e. misguided/ malignant crusade potentially causes the so-called tanking of the tanker.
BTW... must also refer to the acute distraction owing to... TABULASSION, 64-count Bala ( rather than kala ).

Now... onto the...


MAIN BODY, OF THIS POST... IN SOME SNIPPETS...


ONE :

Few days back, chanced upon the following...

http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/nri/visa-and-immigration/india-may-gain-80-billion-per-year-on-relaxing-visa-regime-chinese-media/articleshow/53520506.cms

Though, I completely agree with the GoI concern. Yet, the GoI may consider having some of them folks ( a highly pared down numbers; past the requisite security clearance ) here... in a very controlled manner, as tourists or pilgrims.

Their numbers may be controlled. Perhaps, increased or decreased as per the guide-lines/ feedback from the security agencies. Say... what about some limited-version... end-to-end guided tour ? This means... the tourists have a tight itinerary as a pretty close group. And any of these groupings... must stick with their own respective group. Must... stick to their own schedules... rather than freely roam around here and there.

Perhaps, this way... gradually... some mutual warmth may be potentially generated.



TWO :

Some time back our President went on a state visit to... China ( PRC ).

I recall that there he emphasized of viewing Sino-Indian relations from a civilizational perspective. Pretty well stated, actually !! This... actually also meant to imply/ include... any/ all our common areas of interest, mutual agreements and perceived and/or potential disagreements.

The President's statement is of vital importance with lots of hidden insights to glean... and throws enough light on how, the two huge nations maybe able to pare down potential, perceived and existing differences, and perhaps come along in together-ness. In a certain way... on the world stage. And... perhaps it's time we OUGHT to see a few things from some historical perspective, as well.

This way... together... we THE SINO-INDIAN people may move on... ahead. Rather than... unnecessarily and uselessly bogging each other down. Lest NOT our losses or any mutually-accruing loss become... someone else's gain !! For... in the long run... this potentially leads us nowhere. Whilst someone else gains/ wins, at our expense !

In effect, we...
may actively try to become (c)overt partners in leveraging to the utmost- a mutually beneficial progress; rather than be bogged down by - issues, places, clashing interests ( whereas there should be ideally none ), parochial view of things/ issues/ places/ situations, etc. ... perhaps typical of our own inherent and deep-rooted civilizational trait, etc. - inherently natural traits we have been carrying on since centuries or millenniums.




THREE :

Any two nations can possibly come together only when there is immense people to people contact, generating mutual trust and... goodwill. And... good... positive energy vibes.

And...
across the borders... the populace have knowledge, ...have a keen interest and ...revel in each other's language, culture, sports, etc. ...and other popular pastimes.

For instance...
lots of Indians have moved to the Western countries and settled there. And, most of these people know, speak and can understand English pretty well. So... English language serves to bind the Indians with most of the Westerners. But, ironically, we Indians have a tendency to mostly toe their line.

To add... many of the Indian and Western folks, having studied and working together, have inter-married. This act, potentially, creates a strong bridge between diverse set of people, nations and cultures. That brings people together and resolves myriad of difficult and unresolvable issues.

And... this remains a fact.

The fact remains that... an average Indian who intends to go overseas... generally... wants to relocate to a Western nation rather than any Asian country !

Why this... mindset ?

And...
How, may this... change ?

Same is an average Indian's outlook wrt Russia.


IMPORTANTLY...
The Hindus and the Christians have had no religious wrangles between them. Between them... religion was NOT and never used as a tool to create division between people. Hindus and Christians have never seen reason to fight on religious grounds. ( As far as I know. ) That never has been the case. And... it might never be.

And... Buddhism being an offshoot of the Sanatan Dharma... is at total alignment with the Indian/ Hindus' way of life... and to the eternal... search of truth, leading to enlightenment. The ways and means are different, in either case. The end remains the same. They complement. A case of set and superset, here. Same with the Jains.

This has to be noted. And... noted... way too well. There is a historical perspective. And... a set of commonalities that we Indians and the PRC may fruitfully build on.

Here.... there is no... start from scratch dilemma !!




FOUR :

Some undeniable facts...

The fact remains that... the Islamic conquests in the South Asian arena had an extremely bloody history. Massive numbers of innocent populace - Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains and followers of other religions had been executed by the Islamic crusaders. Others had been forcefully converted to Islam, as part of the Islamic crusade against KAFIRS ( the infidels ). Their fair rule used to be - sword or sop.

Whilst it could be 100 % true that the present Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, etc. countries would certainly have been at one point of time - predominantly Buddhist regions. Say... during the Magadh empire and even much later. Say- till around the 9th to the 12th century AD.

And... there is a high degree of likelihood that all the myriad of Buddhist fiefdoms wilted under the Islamic crusade. Possibly... once the Kings and their noblemen were routed/ overthrown or else converted to Islam - majority of the generals, ministers and... the general populace followed suit, sooner than later. Under the force of sword or some... sops.

But, this same might NOT have been easy for the rabid Islamists... to render the same sort of transformation in a conquered kingdom that had majorly a... rigidly multi-layered, hierarchical, pyramidally structured Hindu society. With the priestly class ( the so-called : Brahmins *** ) adorning the top echelons of this pyramidal structure.

((

*** : From... "Aham Brahm-Asi" = 'I am the Brahm-An' . This was later changed to... "Brahm-Asi Aham" => "Brahm Aham" => Brahm-ham => Brahm-am => Brahm-in => Brahmin ( the current priestly class ).

Aham refers to "I" or I-ness , in Sanskrit. And, Asi means 'am'.

))

The Hindus fought back rather hard... and quite a few of us valiantly or otherwise survived this "conversion at the tip/ force of the sword".

FACT IS :
The Chinese people and their past leadership NEVER had to confront such hordes of Islamic onslaught directed against them. I guess.. never... as the target of them... infidel-baiters.

But the resilience, grit and determination of the Chinese leadership can be gauged by the massive efforts on their parts, spread over centuries, in the construction of the "The great wall of China" . This must have required great energy and drive on their part, sustainable over the centuries. I guess... all this effort... against the pervasive invading Huns and/ or the Mongol incursions, that possibly lasted centuries.


NOTABLE TAKE-AWAYs, HERE -
In all the matters and manner of the Islamic expansionist conquests in the Indian sub-continent... religion ( here... Islam ) was used by the invading extraneously foreign Sultans/ BadShahs, etc. to basically entrench their hold /grasp over the newly conquered territory that essentially had a different prevailing religion ( here - Hindu/ Buddhist/ Jain ).

Therein, religious distortion was used by all these Islamic invaders ( using the concept of Kafir. And... blind intolerance towards any and all sorts of infidels ) to gradually force into gradual acceptance... by the conquered and 'converted' masses... that 'this' foreign invading power is NOW actually part and parcel of their 'new-found cult' of Islam. And... this way... the converted people came to identify with the new rulers on some base commonality... rather than keep on considering the ruler... an alien force. This allowed the Islamic rulers to settle down in the newly-conquered Indian regions.

Essentially... this went on to eventually create a wedge between the same set of conquered people - those who converted to Islam and those who did not !!

And... can anyone imagine... the converted ( to Islam ) native Indian people's new found penchant for hunting for infidels ( nay... Kafirs ) for-sure... led to... mutual new-found never-ending wranglings. And... this allowed the Islamic rulers to comfortably settle down. With a... loud guffaw. Settle down good and rendered them well entrenched and greatly re-fortified, in the Kafir territory. This hunt for Kafir... is an endless cycle for the Islamists.

In the present times... with almost all the empires... actually... national maps clearly re-drawn... I am NOT sure how does this eternal quest i.e. differentiation between Kafir / non-Kafir helps the native Muslim populations in the Indian sub-continent ?? !!

Now...
Is this understood !! Better... ALL... understand this way too well !!




FIVE :

Considering the points # 2 and # 4 : above... it is easy to see the mindless fragmentation of the entirety of the  Indian civilization on religious ( Muslim vs non-Muslims ) lines, in recent times. Led to... disparate geographic chunks like - Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan, post the 1947 partition of the Indian civilization; this was... undoubtedly covertly planned and effected by the Britishers in cahoots with their embedded, well entrenched 'desi' stooges.

Whilst... Afghanistan may claim a separate identity. Yet... the fact remains that... Afghans have been part of the Indian civilizational identity since posterity. Whether we talk of queen Gandhari from the Gandhar ( i.e. Kandhar ) province in ancient India ( refer the epic MahaBharat ). Or, we talk much recently of the Bamiyaan Buddhas that were destroyed by the Talebanis.


{{

Can anyone ponder and tell...
the Bamiyan Buddha statues were existing for the last 2000 years approx.
Even at the height of the Sultanate and the Mughal rule these were left untouched. But... the Taliban seems a notch above them all. And... these guys destroyed this monumental historical vestiges of their very own past !!

}}

Since the ancient times... most of the major Indian kingdoms included Afghanistan in its entirety. For way... too long.

Afghans are actually- intrinsically Indian racial stock... from a civilizational perspective.

This is akin to almost common ethnic origin/ race of the Brits, French and the Germans. This is in congruence to - Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. Were we to leave aside our own language and culture !! Though these are separate countries.

Frankly speaking...
At one time "AryaVarta" extended to almost the whole of the middle east ( Right from the Tirayan land of Kerala ) Covering/ encompassing the present day Iraq, Persia ( Iran ), Kurdistan, etc. as well.

Factually speaking...

All these places were part of the GREAT Indian civilization !!

This also implies that a common race of people ( ALL of them part of the great Indian civilization, actually ) inhabit almost the whole of South Asia as also a greater part of the middle east. Of course, people are currently divided by the boundaries of - language, religion, newly gained national identities, etc.

As also - extremely devious policies/ politics of the Britishers ( Angrez ) and all their bosom allies. In most of the great chunks of- East Asia, South Asia and the middle eastern nations. The Angrez laid the future foundations for almost 100 years of "neo-imperialist" rule. Sans their active presence in these regions. Now... is it that they rule passively ? By some sort of proxy ?

Be... your own judge.




SIX :

The MOST devious shenanigans of the MOST crooked amongst them Britishers and their well-entrenched Indian stooges... saw the partition of the country on religious lines in Aug, 1947.

And...
To make the matters irreversible ( this is 100 % certain ) massive riotings and massive blood-sheds were likely pre-meditated, incited and proactively organised through/ by the embedded elements, on purely religious lines.

If the almost one to two million people killed ( in riots - Hindu, Muslim and Sikh populace ) had 'a-prior-i-ly' known that they might end up this way... most likely... they might have (cumulatively) decided that it is BETTER to eliminate the nearly 200,000 ( 2 lakhs only ) Britishers from the face of the Indian nation... Perhaps twenty or thirty years apriori to their own unceremonious end around Aug, 1947. Rather than be wantonly killed in the rioting... a most uneventful termination of their lives. Their lives snuffed out in mindless anger/ hatred and acts ensuing there-from.

All acts... pre-meditated and meticulously carried out... as per the covert agenda of the Angrez, their Indian (c)overt stooges and the neo-elites that went on to ( almost completely ) take over the power strutcure of the newly formed nations.

...
...
...

If the nefarious designs of the Britishers were defeated around 1947, then... there would have been NO division of the Indian union. Might have NEVER been !!

And... with NO wars foisted on the undivided Indian nation... we might have been the leading economic power of the region or the entire Asian arena !! Since... way too long back. As we used to be... till the Britishers landed here.

And...
The Indian civilization might have, meanwhile, also seen Afghanistan ( courtesy... say, Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan, etc. ) as well join along... on the Indian union band-wagon. Perhaps... by the early 1950s.



KEY PONDERABLES -
Seems like there have been/ are - very devious forces intent on radicalizing Islam for purely political, geo-strategic short/ medium/ long term objective ? is a question that keeps on re-visiting me.

This process certainly started off... a couple of decades back.

And... the majority population in India ( say- Hindus/ Sikhs/ Jains, etc. ) might be forced into a reactive international (re)alignment. Seeking... allies who might have their own set of covert agendas, in disguise ? Is this - one of the desired objectives of those having some secret agenda ?

Can we say that... this serves as some sort of a... pre-requisite ? ( But... leading to what ? What is the hidden game ? likely to be ?


I humbly request the REALLY TRUE Islamic people who are of inherently "indigenous" Indian civilization/ race ... they must ponder and ask themselves, this above question. This is way too dangerous for them. LEST... IT IS TOO LATE !!

And... lest a few mad guys amongst them Muslim people, fed/ led/ paid by covert forces having ulterior designs, labels them all Muslims alike. And... this is already seen to be happening around the globe. And... lands the majority of them in pretty serious trouble. Sooner or later.

Assuming that playing fieleds are/ have been in the process of being carved out...

What is the ENDGAME, designed to be like ?

CAN ANYONE SUGGEST ? MAKE OUT ? PREDICT ?

Is the Indian subcontinent and the extended Indian civilization ( BTW... this truly spreads as far as the majority of the middle eastern regions !! And... we have recently seen the uprooting and near termination of the Yazidis by the covertly created + funded + trained marauding forces. Call them by whatever name ) falling for the self same trap... as in / around 1947 ??

This time... there might be... yet another... form/ format/ scale ?

Different... methodologies/ strategies/ deviations/ distractions-from-the-core-issues/ take-aways ?

This time around...
Once the concerned parties move ahead... there might NEVER be any coming/ going back. As is usually made into the game plan.

( As usually is always often designed. But, often some of the feeble minds in the Indian sub-continent keep on falling for the same trap. Repeatedly. )

CAUTION !! NOTE THIS !!





SEVEN :

If the Indian union was NOT divided way back in Aug, 1947 on religious lines... then... a few other/ related events might NEVER have transpired/ ensued.

NOT A CHANCE !!

For instance...
Whilst India and the newly formed sibling country ( Pakistan ) were busy with the bloody skirmishes on the issue of ascension of Kashmir to India, in late 1947 as also during 1948...

Gauging a God-sent opportunity...
Then.. in 1949, the ever-vigilante Chinese re-organized and restructured into a solo Communist party. Notably.

And... the very next year... in 1950 they swiftly moved over and occupied an entire country- Tibet.

Tibetan people/ nation, by and large, has often had maintained their own independent existsence... since millenniums.

Perhaps Tibet is the size of - Bihar, Uttar-Pradesh, Haryana and West Bengal, put together !! This gives a rough idea about Tibet.

And, quite possibly... Pandit Nehru was busy with the honeypot foisted on him by the Brits. And... to hide his abject failure on Tibet from the Indian masses, of being brow-beaten... talked of PanchSheel, etc.

Thereby allowing China to comfortably take over the entirety of Tibet. Piece of cake for them Chinese.

And... for the first times in the annals of history we have seen the Han Chinese forces at our doorsteps.

There-after... some set of people raised the slogan - "Hindi-Chini bhai-bhai". But then... I guess - there is a "beech me khai" of Tibet ! But... no one says/ said that.


BTW...
If one were to look up... the Tibet Autonomous Region/ State ( TAS ) in Wikipedia...
One chances on the unmistakable fact... after looking at point #1 of the 17 point charter... the Han Chinese super-imposed on the taken-by-surprise ( a... defeated) Tibetan leadership in terms of... a one-sided agreement.

Point #1 of the treaty implies/ states something like - the primary purpose of the pact was to prevent ANY "neo-imperialistic" occupation of the Tibetan region !! That seemed to be the primary concern of the Chinese leadership, at THAT time.

Note this !

Now... what the Chinese leadership had in mind, I am not sure on that ??

Perhaps they suspected that Tibet being weak might be forcefully occupied by foreign ( some... imperial ) invading forces. Say... as an example... like Afghanistan and Iraq has been seen currently ? Perhaps totally destabilized in the process, for decades. Thereby, rendering these and the surrounding regions... vulnerable. 

Was that some sort of prescience and fore-sight on the part of the Chinese leadership ? is a moot question that can confront anyone.

Alternatively speaking...
Assuming that Tibet were allowed to stay an independent country, by China... then there are enough indicators that suggest that Tibet might surely have gone the... Iraq, Syria and definitely... the Afghanistan way. Way... too... long back !! Perhaps... with massive military on-the-grounds presence by the 'neo-imperialist forces', which might have been seen lasting for decades ( on... whatever pretext ). An ever enduring presence, indeed.

This might have potentially destabilized the entire Indo-Chinese buffer region of Tibet. Say- for 50-90 years , at least !! A rough guesstimate.

So... do I suspect that...
The Han Chinese, in all there sagacity, might have prevented that from transpiring !

Can we say that ? Maybe. Perhaps. For sure.

Actually...
I believe that, to a certain extent, the Chinese occupation might have potentially prevented a potential 'Afghanistan-like-situation' in its current form + format, to evolve out of the Tibet region. In a certain way, this could be true.

In the case that... Tibet were allowed to remain an independent ( albeit weak ) nation state.




EIGHT :

Now...
Tibetans can be factually considered a people of Sino-Indian origin. In fact they are.

For centuries, the regal Buddhist and later the Shaivite Kings in the Kashmir region ruled and influenced a great part of the western and south-western Tibetan areas.

This could be how Buddhism gradually spread over and took roots in these areas.

The alternate route was from the north-eastern periphery of the mighty Magadhan ( and, the later majorly eastern Indian ) empires- to the southern and south-eastern parts of the Tibetan plateau.

In effect- almost the whole of Tibet and a good part of China accepted the Buddhist way of life/ preachings; centered around the core of Gautam Buddha's teachings, morals and principles.

The effect of the mighty Indian Kingdoms since millenniums has been to socially, economically, morally and spiritually guide and shape the Tibetan race. An appreciably venerable influence by means of - culture, religion and spirituality. Rather than by any direct governance, most of the times.

This remains a fact.

...

And... in the worst hours of the Islamic crusade against the infidels ( Kafirs ), in India...

... lots and lots of our religious/ spiritual treasure-troves and keepers of the knowledge ( transmitted verbally ) had been slowly and silently relocated to the Tibetan regions, for safe keeping.

This is a potential fact/ something that none can refute.

In fact most of the people in eastern parts of the country and Bangladesh regions could have ben potentially those Buddhist people who, centuries back, chose to convert to Islam. By sword or by sops. Majority of these people may not be/ are not rank outsiders. Same is the case in the Kashmir region and Pakistan/ Afghanistan. This... even the Kashmiris must understand.

Btw... the not-too-clear-thinking separatists in Kashmir do not understand that if India ( and, say- Pakistan too ) had chosen to allow Kashmir to exist as an independent self-governing state/ country. Then... by this time I am sure... Kashmir might have certainly gone the Afghanistan/ Iraq way. Rather than Afghanistan undergoing those deep cuts and massive pains. But... these short-sighted guys will never understand this abject and stark reality. Which even a dumb retard might find too easy to see, hear, believe and trust. Provided (s)he has some basic reasoning ability still remaining intact.

Now... does this resonate with your deep-seated line of thinking ? Chief ?



NINE :

The most versatile military genius in the subcontinent, who was instrumental in carving out a powerful Sikh empire, during the late(r) medieval period was undoubtedly the Sikh General - Hari Singh Nalwa.

It is commendably gauged by many that...
If he had decidedly chosen so... he could have easily over-ran 'a good many' parts of Europe, what to talk of the middle eastern regions. I am not sure if this is an over-statement.

Now, it is said that when... Hari Singh Nalwa with the mighty Sikh troops 'entered'... nay 'passed through' the western and south-western parts of the Tibetan region...

He and his... sub-ordinate generals/ confidantes chose to revert back from their positions rather than foray further inwards in the deeper reaches of Tibet. But, sooner or later... they chose to retreat from those locales.

Why so ?

For...
The Sikh people had taste. They found no appetite to be there. For... in the icy winters... "not even a blade of grass grew" in those areas. ( NOTE THIS !! ) This might have meant that the Sikhs suspected or perhaps found to their dismay that... their horses ( predominantly from the plains and mountainous terrains of the vast expanses of the north-western India ) might have found difficulty in getting ample of the green grass and fodders they were used to. As also "Chana" i.e. gram could have been lacking there.

This is a secondary reason... another reason could be... the Sikhs, perhaps, found next to none fancy for the woman-folks there in Tibet. That might have egged any or several of them to stay put there... and potentially think of settling down there. Had this not been so... this might have eventually led them to... spreading their out-reach towards the central and... the eastern areas of Tibet, gradually and consistently, spread over some period of time.

If the Sikhs had some keen fore-sight... and chosen to do so... then I guess most of the Tibetan people might have been chanting "Wahe Guru" and shouting "Jo Bole So Nihal... Sat Shri Akal !!"... way too... long back. And... the Tibetans would have loved it. I would believe so and therefore... suggest that the Sikh leadership were... more attuned to the need of the hours than the need to be a visionary. And... actually rightfully so.

Another important reason could have been the meager agricultural produce in the Tibetan region. Especially of their staple diet of wheat, rather than rice. Is another reason... which cannot be neglected, at all.

So... we do hereby perceive that...
A very common-sense and wisely sensible decision by the Sikh generals "at that/ those time"... changed the whole course of the modern history. Impacting our history and the current "situation"... the Indian nation... nay... a greatly dwindled "civilization" is actually faced with currently. What a dilemma. Is this... a potential deadlock situation ??

NOTE THIS !!

This may not be true. Perhaps... far from it.


TEN :

Whilst... reasoning that the Tibetans are Sino-Indian race of people, inter-breeding and mixing that has basically spread over millenniums, quite naturally.

Similarly... can we not safely assume that the Mongols @ Mongolia are perhaps a race of the 'Sino-Russian-Turkish' inter-breed of people ? Perhaps, this includes even Tatars ?

Same can be said... effectively so... over the migrations, cross/ inter-migrations and inter-breeding spread over millenniums of influx/ out-flux/ exodus of people across near/ (a)far places !!

I believe and suggest that... precisely... 'that might be/ IS the case' !!




ELEVEN :

This is vitally important for ALL to note... while the Han Chinese traveler Hieun Tsang and others like him ( say, Admiral He ) visited India as a traveler and navigator+trader ( say ). And... these people took away the very best from our lands. I suggest that... these people went back to China to gloat about us as a civilization. Frankly and modestly stating this.

Notably...
We never had any history of any face-to-face armed conflict, with the Chinese people. Never ever had... in the last thousands of years, of our existence.

People from the Indian civilization, nay... race NEVER went and permanently occupied Tibet ( They never had ANY interest to do so - for countless obvious reasons. ) with the directed motive/ aim and intentions of later on... moving ONTO the mainland China and... capturing the lands of the Han Chinese people/ nation/ civilization. Now... this was only possible by... bypassing the Tibetan plateau... and confronting and defeating the Han Chinese people in the battle-fields.

We ( Indians and the Han Chinese ) NEVER ever had need or reasons to get into any direct confrontation/ conflict or face-off. Till... the Han Chinese people overran Tibet in the year 1950... and since then... for the first time in the annals of civilizations... the Chinese people arrive at our doorsteps and confronting us !!

Since 1950 !

And... claiming our lands that have been part of the Indian civilization, since eternity !!

TO NOTE-
THESE PEOPLE - Already overran Tibet in 1950. Quite easily !! And... unfortunately the "BAAP %%" of the nation was not around. And the 'Chacha' Pandit Nehru was busy... with... ?? 

%% : Why shall we call/ consider a mortal the 'BAAP' of the nation ? When we ALL Indians consider the entire nation as our 'MOTHER or MAA', apart from our biological mother ? This sounds ridiculous. And... stupid. Must this... change or not ?

...
...
...


Unfortunately... all that changed AGAIN... in the year 1962.

Whilst Pandit Nehru was still in the hang-over mode ( perhaps ) day-dreaming of his fairy past(times) with the Angrez-An honey-pot...

His potential incompetence and lack of immediate grasp of real-time facts - as they are... and as... they MUST ought to be/ must be ( i.e. backed by veritable on the grounds data ) shamed the Indian psyche. This 'Chacha' achieved something... in a free India. His and his party's achievement... on two fronts !!

...

The fact is...
a small time King Porus from the Punjab area gave a crushing defeat to ( Not Too Great ! ) Alexander. So, in effect, the Romans had to turn tail hone back... home.

So, first time ever after independence of our country. And, whilst almost the entire Indian nation were actually a unified force... a "hitherto new" external power was able to surprise and over-whelm us. This is... 100 % attributable... surely to the political naivety of the over-lords and their almost retard cronies/ chums.

And... whilst... some guys... Henderson and Brooks wrote a "report" out of this fiasco. Perhaps from an "Angrezi" eye view.

My perspective is/ has been quite simple, plain and out-right...

We Indians do NOT want any more beach-bums ( 'beach-bums'... See... I have told earlier that Captain can lap words off my mental sphere/ mind !! And... this is true !! ) to write any further saga of any future India-China low/ medium order face-off or conflict !! Over popping bottles of... Champagne ?

This is a justifiable concern... that must be recorded with all the due seriousness !

No more beach-bums like ( say )... Collins and Chase... lazing around some beaches in the backwaters of Kerala ( Say, what about... Kovalam ) and providing yet again a "pseudo-Angrez's" eye view !!

Only... this time around... these guys might be a 'pseudo' friend (??) !!
I do NOT want to be explicit in spelling this out. Lest this offends some potential/ 'wannabe'... sort of people.




TWELVE :

QUESTIONS -

1.
Can we say with certainty that... the way PRC has (almost) gobbled Tibet, into its fold. As also, the Sinkiang province in the western part of PRC ( This is most near the Central Asian regions of the Caspian sea basin region and near-abouts )... PRC might not one day invade and try gobbling the central Asian nation of Mongolia ??

2. Now...
When I ask myself... what is the probability that PRC might not one day move over to occupy Mongolia ( as it did Tibet towards the south and Sinkiang that was in the western region ) ?

THE ANSWER-
That comes back to me is often always = ONE. This is based on the past history of PRC !!

Though I have no idea as to how much easy or difficult this endeavor/ enterprise might be ? And... importantly... what might be the cost involved in achieving this ?

So... shall I assume that...
Perhaps... some 10-15-20-25 years down the line. Whilst, were Russia to recede in the back-ground as an advanced and economically powerful nation, as it stands today. Are there any chances that Russia may NOT want to protest or confront the Chinese over-whelm and gradual annexation of Mongolia at some future date ?

As of today, this might seem a momentous exaggeration. Totally preposterous. In reality, this might NOT be the case.

And, what if the chances are...
the dictates of the time ( any/ all situational awareness ) forbids Russia to take up positions to counter this... and if the world community were to (meekly) swallow this trespass ??

Does this sound like... too much to be true.

Certainly... may NOT be !!

My own thinking extrapolates this to a ( say ) broadly 15-20-25-35 years time frame 'event'. Can safely be predicted the ways things have been panning out !

And... seems like the Western nations have invested heavily in the PRC to get all the manufactured products at dirt cheap prices/ rates. Thereby... these nations have basically empowered the Chinese people. And... muscled up the Chinese nation. Economically. Militarily. etc.

Empowered them... to get into another bout of... expansive mode. Every which way.

This essentially translates into potential problems for the nearest/ neighboring countries !!

But... see... the Western block of nations are so... kind and considerate. Now... these guys are going to solve the problems/ menace/ threat ( to be ) posed by PRC on behalf of everyone of the parties concerned !! Is this not some contrasting posturing ?

Yet... that requires a couple of USD TRILLIONS of ever-increasing arms race ( All summed up... over a 10 year period, say ) in the Asian pivot/ theater. This actually goes into fueling the economies of the western nations. Thereby swelling their debt burden, even more.

And... with any new and better armaments... the potential of a conflict in the Asian space grows... manifolds !!

...

Seems like... ostensibly the Western nations are the BEST friends and partners of the Chinese people. No matter, whatever they might want to say openly/ overtly. For... the fact remains that... you never muscle up your avowed adversary or a potential threat !! And... then try to club up a coalition to counter that same threat. A 'threat' one nurtured, created and continues to (mutually) sustain !!

How is that possible ?

Is it NOT ?? !!


NOTABLE TAKEAWAY -
If Islam were to spread like wild-fire in the PRC regions. Can anyone imagine what might happen ?

Now... the Chinese have been facing problems ONLY in the Sinkiang province ( by the Muslim native Uighur populace ). Media report tells me that funnily they expect to rope in Pakistan to contain the militant Islamic menace ( in the form of Uighur activists ). Now... supposing that Pakistan does a 'reverse swing of John Galt'  ( now... this is completely different than the 'back' swing. )... and embeds the Islamic Uighur militants with extremely / very rigid ISLAMIC brain-wash... aimed at the propagation of the Islamic faith throughout the PRC territories !! Then, I guess over the next 10-20-30 years time half of the Buddhist and Confucius-an Chinese might end up shouting "Allah hu Akbar" !!

And... then perhaps... the Chinese civilization also breaks up into two or three or four nation states... All newly created along religious and ethnic lines !! ??

Is a possibility that none can rule out !! Based on what we have seen pan out in the Indian civilizational space.

MAKE NOTE and... TAKE NOTE !! PLEASE !!




THIRTEEN :

The smallish snippets of the world news suggests to me that the US Prez BO is somehow instrumental in managing things and situations in rather a controlled state. In... not using his discretionary powers to start off something at the fag end of his presidential term.

((

Whilst...
The US security apparatus, at one time, determined that the Afro-Americans constitute nearly 10-11 % of the total US population and  ( who have a good presence in their armed forces ) are... by and large a dis-enchanted and disillusioned lot, from the national mainstream/ median. Moreover quite a few of these guys are turning towards Islam... for solace. This potentially posed a security challenge for the smartest of the guys in the USA.

These forward thinking guys had to effect a risk mitigation strategy... and lo... out of nowhere we have got Prez BO ... actually Prez B Hu. O !! And... he gets to become the US Prez. And... TWICE. What a serendipitous choice... at the nick of time !!

))

All that may change after the current US presidential elections and for the first time there is ample likelihood that a female gets to become the President of the USA.

Thereon... is it likely that... things might be better for the country and the world ? Alternatively, are there chances that the world situation might be the very worst anyone can ever imagine and/ or envisage ? With... new theaters of war, coming up ? Just... plain thinking.

What I am suggesting and trying to put across ( esp. to the BRIC member nations of - PRC and Russia ) is that... a rather small WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY exists for some drastic and dramatic action that ensures world peace.

And... PEACE may be potentially ascertained i.e. MAY be ONLY possible in a truly multi-polar world order situation.

NOTE THIS !! PLEASE !!



FOURTEEN_ONE :

Frankly speaking... and notably...
the Americans and the Western powers used every trick of the trade... till the early to late nineties to contain and check India, and... every which way. ( I guess... till the time Congress Govt. of Mr. PVN Rao opened up the Indian economy to the banksters and their FDI. And, massively devalued the Indian Rupee in the process. See ## . )

Thence-forth...
There seems to be a change of heart or ways... Now the massive amount of western investments in the PRC ( Btw... all this wealth/ capital is covertly, potentially, jointly held by the Indian elites who are covertly based both in India and the western countries. As I previously suggested - these people believe in regal or otherwise alliances !! Is a fact I have clearly put forth straight out, in an earlier post !! ) have fueled PRC's continual economic rise. This, coupled with PRC's economic ( this often... leads to military ) might... PRC has started to flex its' muscles. Naturally so.

Mean-while... massive amounts of wealth have been drained out of the Indian nation.


In this same process...
By aiding, arming and abetting Pakistan... PRC seems to be deep into the process of containment of India. So that India remains perpetually entangled with Pakistan. On two of the fronts.

Importantly... now the western nations ( esp. the US ) no longer pamper and freely aid/ donate military wares to Pakistan. As they used to... till recently !!

Question that comes back to me...
Does this ostensibly seems like a Chinese ploy... so that Tibet is forgotten forever ? And... for good ? If this Tibet occupation were to persist...then shall we expect that next in the line... goes perhaps- Mongolia ? Taiwan ? etc.

Seems like that... the western nations have ( sort of covertly ) outsourced the work of India's containment to PRC.

For... by massively investing in the manufacturing hubs in the PRC... they have actually chosen the Chinese people as their preferred partners. Way... too long back.

Now... PRC, in turn, seemingly has outsourced India's containment task to Pakistan, additionally. Meanwhile, the frequent media report suggests that Pakistan establishment ( especially the Army and the ISI ) has outsourced this further to several militant groups/ organizations. Using the Muslim/ non-Muslim paradigm. Choosing... infliction by thousand cuts...


POINT to PONDER -
If the PRC and Russia want the BRICS or ( even the very backbone = ) RIC to be successful then it is better that PRC stops aiding, abetting and arming Pakistan, to India's detriment. Better... till there is a marked reformat in Pakistan's ( read - Punjabi Sunni Muslim dominated and led army + ISI ) outlook towards India. That satisfies us Indian people.

The sooner this message is understood and appreciated by the Russian and the PRC leadership... the better. They... must ensure this, in order to strengthen BRICS.

And... only then... gradually we may be looking at a TRULY multi-polar world order.

If they choose to ignore these serious Indian concerns... and... until and unless...
it is someone's covert desire that... India becomes a covert NATO member !!

I guess that 98%-99% of Indians might not want this. But... those who have siphoned off the country's enormous wealth and sent the same overseas are looking forward and planning to perhaps effect the same.

BUT... the recent developments ( say... LEMOA, etc. ) seems to indicate ONLY that. Btw... it might prove suicidal choice for BJP. Let this be understood by BJP. And... understood rather well !! If they do not want to be thoroughly routed in 2019 !!

Notably... and btw... BRICS without India might lead to a bare - Russia and China ( with Pakistan in the tow ) alliance. If they want or prefer it that way.

Importantly ( this is for the PRC... )

And... who knows if...
down the line if Russia decides ( @@@ ) to make fresh amends with old time friend India. Then... PRC stands to stand alone, in tow with Pakistan alone. And... perhaps none else. As either friend or partner. And... actually Pakistan may prove to be... neither... to PRC.

And... not to forget...
everyone knows that any export-oriented economy is totally dependent on the world market. And... this may change. Anytime. Based... on any Govt. policies, regulations and people's desire- for or against products sourced from a certain country/ countries. On whatever pretext.

Btw... this potentially leads BRICS and PRC to nowhere !!

DO we want that to be happening ?

((

@@@ :
Now, here...
Let me give an idea... how much the Russians and Indians are similar. Look at the ethnic Siberian folks in the Russian countryside. One may be surprised at some marked level of similarity to the people inhabiting the J&K, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh people in India. Leave aside- the language or local dialect. Check this out. !!

))

Importantly... those who have fleeced the country of massive amounts of wealth ( all sitting/ invested in the western block of nations ) surely do want India to (c)overtly accede to every which western think-tank dictates.

And... these people might have been instrumental in even maliciously, calculatingly and gradually destroying the higher technical education/ system in India. Over the past so many decades, since we gained independence.

Meticulously. Methodically. Off-shoring the same to the Western nations and their Universities ?

Moot question - Why so ? Ask... and try to get the REAL answers.


FOURTEEN_TWO :

Reference the Congress party rule in 1991...

## : Is not currency devaluation akin to allowing ? -

a) the imports to be more expensive for the country ( one uses up / pays more of the national currency for buying an item from the international market ), and

b) the exports to be cheaper ( overnight, for the same item; the importing foreign nation pays less in terms of the Indian currency than they were used to paying. The nation's currency becomes cheaper in the international market. )

c) On top of the above two... if we factor in the inflation. We see that we have had more of inflation and related maladies than most of the leading world economies. Esp. so in the developed countries. )

If we incorporate the last three factors enumerated above... we may see that all these contributed to massive amounts of accretional ( on an yearly basis ) wealth drained out of the country !! Apparently.

This is something that the best of economists and the finance guys may actually and potentially quantify and tabulate.




FIFTEEN :

For BRICS to be successful... there is a need for massive levels of people to people interactions and... mutual bondings.

Now...
When the best and the brightest people choose to study and work... in each other countries. And... choose to pick up the visited member nation's language, culture and the way of life... then BRICS has a fair chance of gaining traction and strength.

Unfortunately... in this context...
the British rule and their near total imposition of the English language on the Indian populace... has ensured that the Indians find some degree of comfort and acceptance in the western block of nations.

This must change. Ought to... going forward.

If BRICS has to... ever gather traction and strength.




SIXTEEN :

Being a strongly emerging power, almost rivaling the US...
Is it not for the PRC to build better relations with all the nations in the SCS and the ECS region ? So that... there is REAL de-escalation. Notably... a MUST with Japan. And... other nations in the vicinity. This reduces the chance of any sorts of mischief. And... any false flags. These nations/ people have been around since eternity. So... it is best to mutually sort issues out... rather than get into any sorts of detrimental arms race.

For us Indians...
We must need to have our sea trade go on unimpeded and unhindered in/ through that region. Even... Japan and South Korea ( Both have US military bases ) have the same concern. A concern that PRC has to take care of.

Any military conflict escalated by anyone in the region, might not be the last one. Rather... the same could be precursor to severe and serious future engagements.


NOTABLY-
Few months back...noted in the media reports that PRC has relaxed the one-child norm... to a two-child policy. Now... while demography sure serves as an engine of growth. Ill directed and in bad shape... the same may become a mammoth security challenge. In this context... shall I construe this relaxation in norms as a move towards an expansionist ( say... jingoistic ) state policy ?? Seems... likely the case. Is there a need to re-assess this policy... nay... laxity ? I guess so.




SEVENTEEN :

Kashmir remains and integral part of India. Even... the PoK remains and integral part of the Indian union. The inept and vision-less Indian leadership ( notably the Congress party... and notably... 'Chacha' Pandit Nehru ) allowed these essential non-issues to occupy the Indian minds/ psyche/ thinking/ strategy since... way too long.

This should have ceased to have been core issues in the sub-continent, way too long back. Cumulative failure seen here.

Similarily... the Gilgit and Blatistan regions of the Jammu & Kashmir state ( that I guess Pakistan has illegally handed over to PRC, is thoroughly unappreciated by the Indian masses ) MUST one day reunite with the rest of the state. All... within the Indian framework.

So... any trespass or permanent constructions in the same region... PRC must consult and perceive the position of the Indian Govt. and... not go against the Indian positions. In any-which way.

Until and unless the Chinese want to see us Indians be forced to toe the western line. Any western line... primarily and necessarily benefits the western nations. Asian/ other nations, may, at best be distant beneficiaries.


Frankly...
PRC is in a position AS OF NOW to change the rules in a WIN WIN situation. Same may not be the case... few months down the line ( My rough guesstimate- say, after Nov/ or Dec 2016. Never in 2017 ! So... not much time actually remains ).

For... as an Indian native... I want to see these regions as ours only... and be rightfully reverted back to us, in some due course of time.

And... I DO BELIEVE that all this is going to happen in the oncoming next... within ten years' time frame.


BTW...
If, PRC and India see eye to eye on most of the issues confronting us. And... pragmatically so. Then... a lots of 'problems' in the region and around the world might slowly disappear. Leading eventually to PEACE !



EIGHTEEN :

If the Indian position and concerns were accommodated, in the entirety, by the PRC leadership...

And... if I were having at all any remotest say in the Indian Govt. ... I would rather explore any of the possibilities of a joint Sino-Indian port in the Rann of Kutch.


This also might facilitate any potential Russia-China-India gas pipeline !! This will be essentially, more secure.

In effect... then PRC need not... and... MUST NOT try to empower India's potential adversaries. Much... against every Indian wishes.

Until and unless PRC has absolutely decided to milk the fault-lines ( viz. - nationhood on the basis of religion ) in the Indian civilization, to its' advantage. As it did... in the case of Tibet.

In that case- I guess BRICS may NOT take off. Unless the Indian views, concerns are taken care of, well.

I am sure... Russians will agree on this.

Further...
Would suggest that Tibet or TAS be made at least a joint Sino-Indian 'protectorate' state... for say... 100 years. So that... no neo-imperialist forces may occupy/ ravage the territory for any frivolous reasons. As we have seen in... Afghanistan... Iraq... Syria... and elsewhere.

This might prove to be the best CBM between the two countries.

It is better that rather than the Han Chinese confronting the Indian forces at the border. There be native Tibetan forces manning the check-points region. And... even while policing the area. Better be that way. This reduces the risks of any direct face off.

On the Indian side... there should be Indian troops who have been essentially Buddhists sometime. Like... Mahars. And... what about Gorkhas ? As also, the essentially tribal troops from around the country, etc.

I guess this might provide for some risk mitigation, therein.



EPILOGUE-

I would have wanted to say that the ball is in Pakistan's court. Which may be a fact, actually, even today. Perhaps, may be so... even later. No matter what-ever I might think, write and state as above.

But... as I do see things... as they are... the ball actually seems to be in PRC's court. And... it is vitally important that these people take some judicious decision laced with the characteristic eastern wisdom... so that it is a WIN ALL situation. And... certainly no-which-way detrimental EVER to Indian interests.

NOTE - (1) This WHOLE post is delayed by almost more than a year's time frame.

(2) The Govt. and the Captain has been peeking at this post ( in real-time ) over the last two weeks !!
