In memory of the Four Sahebzaadas of Guru Gobind Singh, all of whom sacrificed their lives for the sake of their Dharam, this week in 1704.
Never fails to leave a lump in the throat

A comprehensive tribute to the two little martyrs

So there a recent report from Pakistan - one about Shri Shoaib Akhtar talking about his wet dreams of Ghazwa 'e Hind and capturing Kashmir, and then the rest of India. Here is the video, for those who have missed this story
In light of that, replugging a thread I did three years ago, analyzing the treatment meted out to Cdr Kulbhushan Jadhav's mother & wife when they had gone to meet him in Pakistan.
Its been three years plus since the incident.
Cdr Jadhav continues to be in Pakistani custody.
Here it goes ..
Sharing some thoughts on the treatment meted out to Cdr Kulbhushan Jadhav's wife and mother by Pakis, in what could easily have been a show of goodwill instead.
Still unstructured, let me see how this thread goes ..

You folks hear the story of the first Gorkha to surrender to the Brits in the Anglo Gorkha War of 1815?
Well, here it is!
2
It was the first time organised British troops had faced the Gorkhas in battle & were indeed very intrigued by these spunky little warriors.
However, even as the campaign dragged on, they failed to get a prisoner of war.

Finally, one fine day the Brits saw a Gorkha soldier walk into their lines. He had been wounded during the battle. Ecstatic at the unexpected surrender, their first priority was to treat this man's wounds.

Carrying on from this thread tweeted two days ago, here is another thread. Originally written in 2017 during the India-China Faceoff, this one covers the delicate 'Tango' that defines Bhutan's relationship with both its neighbours.
Here goes ..
Although India’s influence over Bhutan is acknowledged by China, New Delhi is keen to keep an eye on the Sino-Bhutanese negotiations, which would definitively have repercussions on India’s own engagement with China.
History as well as geography have given India a huge advantage in Bhutan. In addition, India’s own rise has reduced the relative disparity in military and diplomatic power with China.

So the 'Liberal' Dynast who is the current Prime Minister of Canada just jumped in the midst of an internal affair of the Union of India at the behest of his Khalistani votebank.

So let me refresh Shri Justin Ji's memory regarding the biggest terror attack perpetrated by these same voters of his from the very soil he governs.
Canada, this one will haunt you till time's end.

Letting out some thoughts and some facts when it came to Western nations not merely looking away at terrorism aimed at India in the 70s, 80s and the 90s, but in cases, actually encouraging it.
This state sponsored terror cost us dearly then & costs us dearly even now.

So this tweet landed up on my TL some days ago. Was a bit busy then, but now I finally have time to share some thoughts.
In this thread, I'll tweet about the historical perspective on the Bhutan-China Boundary Dispute. Other threads will follow.
Here goes
Before moving ahead, here's a map of the disputed areas.
Plz note that the location of the 2017 India-China dispute (that continues still) is referred to as 'DOLAM', with ‘DOKLAM’ referring to the area claimed by China West of Thimpu hereafter.
It is amazing what wealth of knowledge exists on the www, esp when you go looking for answers to something you had no clue about. Did some digging around on the www on to get a perspective about the India-China standoff, which most people forget that Bhutan too is a part of!
