I feel that the existence of Pakistan is very important for the existence of India. Pakistan is the common enemy which keeps whole of India united. If Pakistan were to disintegrate tomorrow, India will also disintegrate in 10 seconds. Because with the external threat gone, we will start to fight each other as Mr. Raj Thakre demonstrated recently. And when a billion people fight, consequences are catastrophic. So Pak should continue to exist for peace on the subcontinent.

hmm, interesting thought. but i would say pakistan is important to India because it is like a buffer between India and extrmist Islamic countries, better a pakistan than a Iran or Afghanistan as a neighbour

Not true. We have better relations with Iranians as well as Afghans. We have never had problems with Shias. Only the Sunnis are a synonym of violence.
