A hand of friendship

On Monday Chinese premier visited India for the possible talks over the joint development of the software industry. I think these are the same people who backstabbed us in 1962 on October 20th when the well equipped and well trained Chinese army attacked the ill equipped Indian army. They had the shouts of “Hindu – Chini bhai bhai”, which depicts the treacherous act by these people. Lets leave the artillery and ammunition aside the Indian army dint even have proper clothing at that time.

Now when the time passes and we develop in all fields and threaten to be a major power in the world these people want to unite again to make a joint development. TCS the software giant has already opened its branch in Hangzhuo and started operating. Wen Jiabao presented prime minister with an official map showing Sikkim part of India. He says we are going to put in place a bridge of friendship. A protocol is being formed to reduce the army on the LOC (line of control).

Why do we support these acts do we forget the innocent lives of our troops who fought these people in 1962? The tortures the Chinese soldiers conducted with the civilians and the soldiers. I somehow when look at these people feel they will always try to betray us.

Then some people feel the issue of globalization is essential for the growth in GDP. Yes, I do agree with this fact but the trade agreements can be done with people who stand with us and not with those who will stab us when we turn. They have always had a history of agreement failure. US have always adopted a hard-nosed policy with these people. The WTO (World Trade Organization) always has termed the country as most rapidly changing societies in the world over the past two decades. Yet they state that the country faces massive social, economic, and political challenges that genuinely threaten its overall stability.

The discussion is always open for doubts but with a political stand that we adopt I feel the doubts rise to foolishness. Today we do not need them for development of any kind and we rise with our own success. India needs to be stern in its stand with these two-faced people.
