The Demarcation of Indo Tibetan Border On Ground Will Be The Start Point Of Improvement In info Chinese Bilateral Relationship
Dated : 31 Dec 2020 (IST)
China had been given a bloody nose in 1967 at Nathu La skirmishes and thereafter had remained quiet for a long time. However thereafter it again started its nefarious activities to which somehow India always reacted mildly.
The overall Indian Mantra became Appeasement at whatever cost. However after repelling the attack by the PLA at Galwan, now India is determined to put a stop to the PLA tactics of gaining territory by salami slicing.
So although China-India LAC tensions may have eased somewhat as the two sides are seeking a solution through negotiations, India has categorically told China that now there will be no business as usual. Thus the Indian sentiments and related actions within India are now no more positive towards China.
Indian scholars and Indian journalists too do not support any Chinese actions, New Delhi has no intention to fix bilateral ties or economical or cultural or educational relationship with Chinese.
The latest move made by the Indian government in “informally telling International airlines not to fly Chinese nationals into the country from third countries ” is to clearly show the Chinese that if China takes decision to refuse the entry of Indian nationals into China then India too will do the same, India will no more be apologetic to anyone regarding such decisions. Indian politicians, scholars, journalists, NGO activists and religious figures have all started supporting the Government philosophy against Government of Chinese Communist Party. In case China wishes to re fix bilateral ties then it must come to the negotiating table and agree to demarcate the Indo Tibetan boundary on ground as a start point.
Post Galwan various other Chinese actions also have not been friendly. For instance is a clear “water war against India.” Then the ongoing talks on border issues have been followed with several stand-offs along the border, indicating that Chinese are just not serious about the talks. Their aim was to buy time to rush in more forces.
Chinese analysts are also placing lots of hope on the new American President Elect Bidden. They are of the opinion that Bidden policies will be pro China and this is bound to put immense pressure on India which will then be forced to come to terms with Beijing. In this regard China has also mistreated Australia quite badly.
Chinese have still not learned the fact that now India does not see world events through American or Russian or Chinese prism but only through New Delhi’s Prism.So India will decide its own path and not tow any ones else.
Anger in India against China is multidimensional, not only originating just from geopolitical conflicts, but also due spread of the Wuhan Virus. So after Galwan various political and cultural organizations like Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) have begun to call on the Indian government and citizens to boycott Chinese products as a tribute to Indian soldiers that died in a clash with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley.
The PLA attack on the Indian soldiers has completely eroded the foundation of mutual trust between China and India and has deeply hurt people-to-people and trade exchanges. After the PLA escalated the LAC tension to an attack, the Indian government deliberately launched boycott campaigns against Chinese products and apps. It was decided to decouple from China economically at the earliest as we cannot to business with such nations. We will also take all actions to improve our cooperation with Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea and the Tibetan Government in Exile.
India’s negative perception towards China will continue till the Chinese commit themselves to resolve the Indo Tibetan boundary issue fully. Other wise Indian Forces are fully ready and capable of taking on the PLA on all fronts.
