SILIGURI CORRIDOR

The troubled North-East region of India has many political issues from within including SEPARATIST MOVEMENTS.

This region comprises of Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Tripura and Sikkim – a region surrounded Bhutan, Myanmar, Bangladesh and China.

If Siliguri Corridor is captured by China, it can geographically isolate those states from mainland.

All major trade and supply (both civilian and military) routes from Mainland India to the North East exist via this corridor.

This is @ImranKhanPTI 's #DNA: He is called #TalibanKhan for a reason. No surprises #Pakistan remains on the #FATF grey list. Even master China could not help vassal state Pakistan. US too exposed Pak for inaction against that Maulana of Terror #MasoodAzhar & #LeT's #HafizSaeed👇
@ImranKhanPTI calling #OsamaBinLaden '#shaheed' is not a slip of the tongue. It is deliberate. #Terror is in #TalibanKhan's blood. I joined @Geeta_Mohan on @PreetiChoudhry 's show from #Laddakh on the Mayor of Islamabad's statement on Osama Bin Laden 👇👇
And we have worthies in India who hug @ImranKhanPTI & so many who wanted to engage with Taliban Khan claiming he was on the same page with the Pakistan army. Well he is also on the same page with #OsamaBinLaden #HaqqaniNetwork #LeT #JeM and the entire Mil-Jihad complex. #wakeup.

Dear Gobhi ji , u may be a corporate stooge, a rival of the Congress party, employee of Adani, Ambani, frnds of tax evaders and loan defaulters and what not..

But when it comes to the Security & integrity of India,u have to act like the PM & not a coward

#ModiSurrendersToChina
The #GalwanValley was,is & should always be part of India,20 soldiers were martyred trying to throw enemy out of it, thousands spent their lives protecting this land and keeping incursions away.
The Chinese incursion is a serious matter, dont Live in denial
#ModiSurrendersToChina
Indias integrity is challenged, its not time to hide or let the enemy win. If u are the son of the soil, if u are a true Indian, if ur blood is warm b boils at any attack on the nation, if ur heart beats for India, dont run away from this situation

THREAD:

#China-#India stand-off at Laddakh & consequences 4 #Pakistan

What I think of new tension?

🇨🇳’s move into #Laddakh & establishing a hold over Galwan river valley comes after 🇮🇳 coerced Nepal by encroaching it’s border territory & reviving Kalapani dispute.

1/
China says that #India actually encroached in its territory. The similar holding over of river valley led to 1962 war between India and China.

What strategic compulsion weighed in behind the Chinese move?

A) What immediate reasons?

2/
1. 🇮🇳 ’s aggressive behaviour re Nepal reviving Kalapani dispute, indirectly implicated 🇨🇳-es interest.

2. Post Aug 5 annexation of IOK w/ 🇮🇳-n intention 2 turn Laddakh into union territory rattled 🇨🇳 that 🇮🇳 is materially changing status of th region contested by🇨🇳& 🇵🇰.
