When I started reading the interview only one thing came to my mind "yes it he (Kiren Rijiju) is the kind of person that we (India) needs at this time .......
That day is not so far when these young MP with a vision for Inda will get their say ... its just a matter of time ....
When Indian Parlament was attacked by terrorests initialy I thought it was a shame on our security forces ... then realised that we (Indian's) missed a golden opertunity of getting rid of OLD in capable corrupt politicians!! How right I was ...... other wise this young vioce of India (Kiren Rijiju) might have been heard by the complete nation ......
When I hear about people like Kiren Rijiju I realise that there is some blink of hope for Indian democrocy.
One final note to Kiren Rijiju, please dont stop the wonderful work you are doing ...... any big moment in history always started with a single person.
We are proud of you and we all (Indian's) support your cause!!!
Mr.B.S.Raghavan, IAS (Retd) and former adviser to UN, pointed out that Beijing genuinely believes India has done injustice to China on the issue of Arunachal Pradesh. He emphasised that India should not allow the border issue to persist for a long time as mistakes and accidents can happen. There was agreement with his view that the border issue cannot be solved through mechanisms like Joint Working Group (JWG) or talks between two special representatives or Experts group. It is high time that the matter is taken up at a direct political summit between the top leaders of the two countries to thrash it out and come to a quick settlement. This has a parallel with China-Vietnam border negotiations and the historic Sino-US rapprochement brought about by Richard Nixon and Mao Zedong in 1972. Four options for India were put forth on the occasion: (a) Maintaining the status quo and leaving the Arunachal Pradesh border as-is-where-is, with willingness for some adjustments. (b) Countering the Chinese stubborn position on Tawang based on their religious and national sentiments, with Indian claims over the spiritually important Mansarovar and adjoining territory extending from Lipulekh Pass to Zhangmu in Tibet , to facilitate easy and unhindered approach to Kailash; in other words, Manasarovar can be a bargaining chip for India. This may however need a cautionary approach so as to avoid any impression that such barter is a sign of India%u2019s weakness. Also, the barter needs parliamentar
All participants wanted the Government of India to continue with its infrastructure-building projects in Arunachal Pradesh, even while continuing the border talks with China. Mr.B.Raman, former Additional Secretary, Cabinet Secretariat, Govt of India, pointed out that India should at the same time, have an adequate military strategy to defend the projects being built in Arunachal Pradesh, if necessary by induction of more mountain divisions. Mr R.Swaminathan, former Special Secretary and Director-General (Security), Government of India, suggested, as a measure pending a final border settlement, creation of a Sino-Indian administrative boundary in Arunachal Pradesh, on the basis of areas being administered by each side. He added that instead of a Line of Actual Control, there can be a Line of Administrative Control. Most of the participants felt that China would like to keep the border issue alive, so as to put psychological pressure on India and in particular, prevent India from developing infrastructure in Arunachal Pradesh. Mr B.Raman pointed out that as part of China%u2019s strategic culture of looking far ahead, it is already visualising various scenarios and options relating to what can happen in Tibet in the post-Dalai Lama period. China nurses a suspicion that Tawang was the place from where the Khampa revolt in Tibet in the 1950s was orchestrated by the CIA. Commodore R.S.Vasan, Additional Director, Observer Research Foundation (ORF) Chennai Chapter, felt that India sh
CCCS, C3S Paper No.112 dated March 2, 2008 Initiating the discussions, Mr.G.V.Ramakrishna IAS (Retd) and former Chairman, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), stated that China%u2019s strategy is to cut India to size and that the border issue reflects a minor dimension of the same. Observing that encirclement of India is China%u2019s goal, he said that such attitude has roots in the principle of encirclement governing the Chinese chess game of Weiji. He expressed apprehension that China may launch military intrusion (one or two companies) into the contentious Tawang area of Arunachal Pradesh during October-November 2008, in an effort to show its flag. The Beijing Olympics will be over by that time and China%u2019s intentions would be to exploit the then prevailing national and international atmosphere to put pressure on India - the impending General elections in India, the US Presidential elections and the Indo-US relations which have become lukewarm in the light of the controversy over civil nuclear cooperation agreement. China may also weigh the following other factors influencing the atmosphere China%u2019s superiority over India in terms of border military strength and infrastructures. Gaining of strength by forces in India like the Maoists, who are sympathetic to China. Emerging close China-Burma relations, directed at diverting the attention of India%u2019s military. Further strengthening of China-Pakistan nexus with the new government in Islamabad c
China is a trivial issue, the caste system is killing India specially the states of UP and Bihar. But the castiest elites from these states will continue to deny this fact, till all these castiest elite themselves become the new dalits of India. What goes around comes around. These castiest elites from UP and Bihar treated the lower castes like dirt, now they are treated in an identical fashion by the people from Maharashtra.

When the last caste survey was done in 1931 by the British rulers, compared to any other state in India, UP had the highest Brahmin population of 10%. It also has a very high Rajput, Kayasth and Baniya population. It is funny that the state with the hightest number of upper caste population in India is the worst state in the union.
MP Kiren Rijiju How right you are! I see you as a future Prime Minister and I hope I see you so in my life time. Indian armed forces are not professional armed forces by any standards. Indian has produced greatest number of coward generals, admirals and air marshalls, few of them are General Kaul, General Choudhary, General Malik, Field Marshall Manikshaw, Air Marshal Arjun Singh and Admiral during 1971 war. Indian generals know that they are no match against Chinese. Low level crooks became politicians and political leaders in India with few exceptions. Just look at Lalu whoever he is. Nehru did an awful lot damage to the country under the spell of British slut.
Pakistan is irrelevant to great Indian stature. But Indian leaders and generals don't realize that and are afraid of their own shadows.
