I have read maos book on the long March, interesting
There he was in doubt, about what is China? , a country just like india divided under regional warlords , with emperor authority in name only
More political unity ?, you do realise modern nation states are a European concept, with modern bureaucracy in a average nation like ours a webereian relic !
Chinese adopted the Soviet administrative system wholesale, what you think the purges and cultural revolution of Mao was ?
Even today they speak mutually unintelligible languages, 13 of those and not only Mandarin Chinese, the Beijing standard.
Like here we have arya which denotes a civilised person, similarly in China
Han denoted a civilised person, hua a non civilised barbarian.
Hence there are different kinds of people there too like gujjus marathis etc
We chose to respect thus diversity, it internally makes us more resilient while having a very strong central government safeguarding thus system with relevant checks and balances over the state's
Their culture is different to ours to such a extent thta one doesn't recognize thier own differences.
I don't want 5 crore Indians to die in a couple of years just because a supreme leaders dream can be realised.
China was aggrieved. So was india
But neutrally saying, Nehru was indeed a gentleman and a world states man , he wanted peace
The much demonised forward policy was due the Chinese provocations itself
Plus the government fears of a coup were justified
The military was put in its place early on, costed us 1962 i agree but it was good in long run .
Think before you get into enemy propaganda bro, read our history with a neutral lense and you will agree with i wrote .
