India lost the war to China because a stupid arrogant Commie named Nehru was running the govt - he allowed Chou to piddle all over him in his vain-glorious pursuit of his delusional Hindi-Chinni, Bhai-Bhai crap. He steadfastly refused to allow the miliatry to acquire desperatley neede arms and munitions. And the Communist Party of India was officially against India protecting herself from Chinese aggression, forcing even Nehru to put the traitors like Basu in jail. So, to this Red Rascal, India lost the '62 war precisely because of the stupidity of the naieve, myopic, vascillating Commie Nehru.
