We return evil for evil, in which there is no sin, for it is necessary to pay a wicked man in his own coin.”
-Chanakya
India’s China policy has been mired in Nehruvian slavery for decades. Short of logic, rationality and self interest, it was the tattered shroud of a dying man trying to hide his perfidy with a nation which had the misfortune of birthing and nurturing him. Gutless, fifth columnist and self defeatist – the sacred blood of valiant Indian soldiers offered at the altar of pusillanimous self preservation of a spineless ruling cabal made up of self serving wretches like Nehru, Krishna Menon, General BM Kaul et al. A nation with an operating air force not pressing it into action when threatened by Mao’s homicidal hordes can only be answered by the ghosts of traitors who made that call along with their apologists who are trying to hold the crumbling facade of lies and deceit.
Giving China a walk over on Tibet, not challenging it in Ladakh, silently accepting china occupied portion of Kashmir and hiding Chinese incremental illegal occupation of Indian territory have been the hall marks of erstwhile Indian policy towards China. China has communicated in loud and clear terms how it views India. It uses its Security council permanent seat to back an Islamic terrorist like masood Azar in public. It refuses to recognize Arunachal Pradesh as an integral part of India. It seeks to exert outsized influence in Nepal and Bhutan to the detriment of India. It seeks to encircle India in a naval string of pearls. It has called India as an aggressor in the Galwan conflict. What is the response of India to this ‘ I will not let you survive’ clarion call of China? We seek to return to a made up status quo ante which has its roots in nehruvian himalayan blunder.
In the cut throat world of international relations, it is axiomatic that you never let a crisis go unused. China virus, terrible as it is in terms of the human and economic decimation, has paradoxically given India an opportunity to free itself from the Nehruvian china policy. Since China has made it clear that it seeks to actively endeavour to savour India’s pain – India has to throw the Nehruvian policy lock stock and barrel into the Pangong Tso lake and hit the refresh button. India should recognise Taiwan as an Independent Country and consign communist party of China’s one china policy to the dustbin of history. India should put the Tibet question at the centre of Indo China relations. A free, independent and spiritual Tibet uncontaminated by mao’s red book is in India’s interest and India should pursue that goal in all international fora. India should start addressing the Han virus unleashed on the world with its proper nomenclature – China Virus.
Modi government has rubbished the so called Pakistan doctrine foisted on the nation for decades by Nehruvian clones with its surgical strikes and air raids. It should do the same by identifying China as India’s mortal enemy number one and treating it as such. China has left no one in doubt as to how it sees India and seeks to weaken it. A nation claiming the heritage of a homicidal idiot like Mao does not deserve the kid glove approach being accorded to it by the world at present. US and Europe don’t share a disputed border with China. We do. That alone should guide us in our fight for survival against a puffed up bully. Make China pay should be our mantra now and going forward.
