Surely every serious national security strategist understands the distinction btwn Govts Geopolitical decisions and th military's detailed scenario planning & action program. A govt can decided on basis of expected value of outcome or worst case scenarios-the latter is paralyzing
2/ns The critical issue in China-India conflict is that,as of now (2020), #China controls the #escalatory ladder. So India's #National #Security Apparatus has to make assumptions about when and how #CCPpla will escalate, if it loses the first few steps on its escalatory ladder!
3/ns The worst case scenario for us is therefore the one in which after loosing previous escalations, #CCP China escalates to a full fledged war/attack on India, by shifting US-facing troops and highest quality equipment towards India. This has proved paralyzing for past Govts!🤔

Threat of unleashing nuclear devastation qualifies as brinksmanship, not statesmanship
Mr. President,
I take the floor to exercise India’s right of reply to the statement made by the Prime
Minister of Pakistan.

2. Every word spoken from the podium of this august Assembly, it is believed, carries the
weight of history. Unfortunately, what we heard today from Prime Minister Imran Khan of
Pakistan was a callous portrayal of the world in binary terms.

Pak Cricket Board (PCB) pays ₹ 11 crore ($1.6 million) to @BCCI after losing case at @ICC dispute resolution Committee. PCB had sued BCCI for not playing 6 bilateral cricket series between 2015-23. PCB wanted $70 million as compensation. Lost. Ended up shelling out $2.2 million
More than money its loss of face for Pakistan at @ICC. Govt of India made it very clear, it is for Pakistan to create an environment conducive for cricket and/or talks.Terror free environment. Sadly Pak prefers to stand with terrorists like #HafizSaeed & #MasoodAzhar #Terroristan
Abhi toh Pakistan ko aur zaleel hona baqi hai. More shame in store for Pak in times to come. Surprised that Pak civil society. Judiciary, political class instead of questioning Pak army support to terrorists like #HafizSaeed & #MasoodAzhar is silently accepting this humiliation?
Let's get a few things straight.
Terrorism is not an act of 'cowardice' or 'desperation'. It is an act of cold-blooded terror. Politicians who keep repeating the same hackneyed lines are basically trying to avoid responsibility by disowning failure to crush terrorism. #Pulwama 1

It would be best if politicians representing the Government and the Opposition keep quiet after terrorist attacks. Anything they say is unadulterated bakwas. Nation is tired of glycerine tears for shahid jawans and insincere promises of retaliatory action. #Pulwama 2
Jammu & Kashmir is effectively under Central rule. Today's suicide bombing resulting in horrific deaths of jawans indicates an abysmal failure of intelligence agencies. Responsibility devolves on Modi Sarkar. Bluster cannot hide this fact. #Pulwama 3
