I have been admonished, reprimanded, chided even rebuked for producing such pessimistic articles under this heading. Some of them feel, it has a very negative influence on the planter population in the district. Hence this article, where I have tried to be as realistically optimistic as possible.
To start on an optimistic note, especially today, Tuesday, the 3rd of Sep, on the occasion of Kailpold (the day we Kodavas worship our weapons), let me begin with the number of Nuclear war heads India has, viz a vis Pakistan. The latest report of arms tracker SIPRI says, for the first time in 25 years we have beaten them with 172 nuclear war heads to Pakistan’s 170. And our latest Brahmos missiles are capable of firing them from land-based Silos, Aircrafts, and even from ships/ submarines.
For long, we and our military geopolitical experts, have been saying Pakistan will break into many pieces. But never really saw it happening. Happily, now the beginning of the end seems to have started. Last month, we first saw Pakistani commandos coming and camping inside Jammu forests, well within Indian territory. They first attacked a bus full of pilgrims and killed the driver and a few passengers. They then started attacking the army vehicles. As A result, so far, the number of army personnel killed in the last three months in Jammu area are 11 and civilians 10.
The opposition parties of INDI alliance, the liberandos and paid activists on social media and in the press, started gloating over the setbacks Modi govt suffered due to these attacks. However, none from the above-mentioned ranks have said even a word about Baluch Liberation Army’s (BLA)attack on a Pakistani camp. Nearly 90 Pakistani security personnel have been killed in the attack. The BLA also started the selective execution of Punjabis of Pakistan by stopping busses and transport vehicles of Punjabis. A total of 19 have been killed in these killings. Needless to say, these successes of BLA, could have only been possible with Indian training, Indian supply of weapons/ammunition, Indian planning and intelligence inputs. Not that the INDI alliance and their paid stooges are unaware of this. But when Bharat wins, or Bharat is successful, they choose to remain silent, due to the fear that they may displease the minorities.
While people of Baluchistan are fighting for their independence from Punjabi Pakistan, we also see the unrest in ‘Pakistan occupied Kashmir’, which has suffered only neglect and oppression in the hands of Pakistani Punjabis for 76 years. They feel it even more, as they see their cousins across the border in India, enjoying the fruits of Bharat’s economic progress. Kashmiris in Pakistan are also trying to break free of Pakistani hegemony. It’s only a matter of time. Some assistance from Bharat will soon see them asserting themselves.
Located in the northwestern region of Pakistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is the fourth largest province of that country. The insurgency in this region, also known as the War in North-West, or Pakistan’s war on terror, is an ongoing armed conflict involving Pakistan and Islamist militant groups such as the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Jundallah, Lashkar-e-Islam (LeI), TNSM, al-Qaeda.TTPs stated objectives are expulsion of Islamabad’s influence in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and neighbouring Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province in Pakistan.
Pakistan’s woes are increasing with, food grains shortage, foreign exchange reserve shortage and a doomed economy.The IMF loans, World Bank loans and Chinese funds inflow, are all drying up. It is only a matter of time before Pakistan breaks up into many small countries, each ruled by their respective military juntas. Chinese grand plan of CPEC (China Pakistan Economic Corridor), also seems to be floundering, with Chinese economy also in doldrums.
China’s four major banks have all failed. They have got, 80 percent of their money declared as Non-Performing Assets (NPAs). India was declared a very fragile economy in 2012/13 when just 20% of its bank’s assets were declared NPAs. So,we can well imagine, what state a large country, with a large population like China is in. No wonder its President is trying to strike deals with America, Russia, and even Belarus. However, China’s dream of reaching out to the markets of the African continent and Europe is still a distant dream, with, CPEC’s unfinished Gwadar port in Baluchistan still incomplete. Their ‘string of pearls’, an attempt to encircle India with sea ports in all our neighbouring countries, since 2004, seems to be failing, for want of funds. ‘String of Pearls’, refers to the network of Chinese military and commercial facilities and relationships along its sea lines of communication, which extended from Chinese mainland to Port Sudan in the Horn of Africa.
Bangladesh, our latest hostile neighbour, who forgot within 53 years, India’s military efforts, in making them an independent country, freeing them from Pakistani Punjabi hegemony are in no better state. They were prospering under a democratic govt with a comfortable Foreign Exchange Reserve. With their Gramin Banks funding their textile industries, they were prospering like never before. All the world’s top clothing brands had set up their factories in Bangladesh. All the raw material required for these factories were readily available from a friendly India. But soon their religious fervour was awakened in them, by none other than American Deep State’s Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, George Soros trio. America wanted Bangladesh’s St Martin’s Island to keep close watch on India and China. An anarchy in Bangladesh, as planned by the Deep state and the overthrow of Sheikh Hasina government achieved their objective.
But now, almost 75% of all the 500 textile factories have moved out of Bangladesh to Bharat. Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu have accommodated most of them. An unprecedented heavy rainfall in the higher reaches of catchment areas of Rivers Ganga, Brahmaputra, Jumna and the Meghna triggered the overflowing of some of the barrages/dams in India, causing devastation and floods in Bangladesh. Similar floods have been causing devastation since 1987, 1988 and 1998. A shaky Mohammad Yunus govt, propped up by American Deep State is holding fort. An unhappy student crowd is agitating on the streets of Bangladesh, opposing this prime minister, who has been hoisted on them. In the meanwhile, Pakistan based ‘Al Khidmat Foundation’ is organising a massive rally in Chittagong area for Rohingya refugees. This foundation is backed by Pakistan’s ISI. The Jamaat e Islami, Bangladesh is agitating too, insisting on introduction of Sharia law in the country.
Meanwhile Bangladesh owes to five Indian power companies, a whopping 1 billion dollars. Naturally India will have to stop power supply to them, unless this hostile country pays up its dues.So, while Indian economy is growing from strength to strength, our three enemies in the region, are drowning slowly into an economic morass. Yet, funded by a jealous America, they nurture hopes of beating Bharat militarily. Meanwhile America and its Deep State are meddling in the internal affairs of Bharat and its electoral processes in its states.
If the patriotic citizens of Bharat remain united, no power in the world can harm us. But if INDI alliance and opposition leaders succeed in breaking all of us up on religious lines, then time alone can tell us, what the outcome.
Let us remain united. Yogi Adityanath has so aptly said “BANTENGE TO KHATENGE” Meaning “If we get divided, we will be cut down”.
