Sir, in this regard, I blame the armed forces with all due respect. Yes they are under civilians but they need to push the civilians to understand te implication of skin nothing. If required, twist their arms. The armed forces cannot let our nation be at a strategic disadvantage. The army is committed to security of the nation and it includes from the scums that don't form the right policies while in power.
Sir what can the armed forces do if there is political no backing....????? b;ame it on our successive weak willed govts....

The job of the armed forces is to protect the nation. From enemies external and internal. Even if they are sitting in plush offices on Raisena Hill.

Now everyone knows, But before its known as Pakistan Kashmir, Now its not..
Whose fault is it? Why we sat quiet for 60 years? When there are talks of Kashmir, why it always means Indian administered and not Pak occupied?

Gov fault..
Army works as Gov says, Shouldn't be call Army`s fault..



But again:

I Corps - Sialkot Sector [www.bharat-rakshak.com]

At the end of hostilties on 23 september India retained Between 140 square miles(War Despatches by Lt. Gen.Harbaksh Singh)and 360 square kilometres(official Indian History of 1965 war) of pakistani territory in the lahore front including major villages of Bedian,Barki,Padri,Dograi,Bhasin and Ichhogil uttar along the eastern bank of the Ichhogil canal.Pakistan only gained small tract of land in Khem Karan of 52 square kilometres.
Should we forget that the land we gained back in 1965 By Indian army, was returns back when Gov was pressed by Russian and International community ?
Hundred of men died for it, All was nothing but wastage of your troops..

The Army is fine as it is. They take instructions from the government. What we need is more efficient, understanding, dynamic and intelligent politicians and babus.

BTW, one of my friends in the Army was telling me that the "statement of purpose" of the Army does not contain even relief operations. Yet, the Army does it. In the strictest sense, the "Army" of any nation, is only for defence against external enemies. I don't think the Army is responsible for taking on internal enemies. There are other organizations, other institutions, to do that.

Agreed, no one is calling for a coup, but for forceful pushing of Indian security interests.

Pakistan already had given part of land to china as a gift no wonder if they lease land to them.

By such things Pakistanis prove that they are not from this soil, they dont have value of land because its not their motherland ,
Kashmir is just like "one soap free on other soap" for Pakis.

Can this be a ploy by the US to get us move away from China in the Iranian question?

IMHO, Pakis army is facing very low morale and poor condition of its arms, armamentarium and preparedness.. So probably they forsee that they cannot hold on to Northern Areas in a future conflict with India. So they do the next best thing. Lease it out to China who are better equiped..
Interesting to see what happens when the already discontended Baltistanis rise up.
Next probably they'll lease out Baluchistan, given its strategic importance.

How long can it take to reclaim the occupied land in Kashmir?
It will not be measured in days but blood if we go all out to retake it.

I am forced to think that if MRCA had gone to the US which would have further cemented Indo US relations, we could have played a great game with the ultimate aim of countering china.

Difficult to predict.

It all depends what is the window allowed by the powers that be for the war to continue and how they ensures that the nuclear weapons are not used.

Nope, vested interests who come to power only to loot.

Seriously though, we have been toeing only paki line in discussions about Kashmir. Successive Indian governments have never bothered to talk about PoK. If they had, we would not have got th Chinis in our land occupied by Pakis.
Yes you mean the same thing.
