The writer must either be delsuional or delusional.
India is fighting your wuhan virus on one front, Kashmir insurgency on another, an economic crisis on another, a migrant crisis on yet another, communal riots on another, and have just been hit by the largest cyclone in the past 100 years, that too in our eastern region.
And you think we'd pick a fight with China? Are you people this delusional?
I have another theory.
Xi Jinping has Jiang Zemin's faction at his throat, sparing no effort to ensure that he gets out after his 10-year term; Coronavirus is his Chernobyl moment (with 1000x more global- and geopolitical impact), he's losing big to the US in his trade-war; is unable to pull off that big Taiwan invasion that he dreamed of; and as of yesterday, the US closed HK special trade terms, stripping Chinese businesses of at least $800 billion in annual transshipment volume taking advantage of HK's independent trade relations.
So Xi now wants to pick a fight with nuclear-triad equipped India to create a major diversion, because he knows Modi won't repeat Nehru's mistakes, there will be an escalation, and that will keep both the CCP and the Chinese masses distracted.
This also explains why there are units from outside PLA Western Theater Command at Pangong Tso.
Frankly, if India wanted to pluck low-hanging strategic fruits, we would hit Pakistan. Your president is feeding you the sweetest hunny.
