Encirclement of India by China

A Press Conference was organized by Sangarsh on 16/11/1009 in order to express concern over the hardline posture adopted by China towards India and denial mode of the Indian political establishment towards the Chinese claims over the India territory. The press conference was jointly addressed by Mr.Ranjeet Sharma, President, Mr. Suresh Kumar, General Secretary and Mahesh Kaul, Organising Secretary of the organization respectively.The leaders of Sangarsh said that “the hardline posture adopted by China over the Indian territories is directly related to the changing world strategic order due to the receding clout of the US economy and its dependence on the Chinese currency and the second factor for the Chine sabre rattling is due to the political and social instability in Pakistan which acted as the direct proxy of the Chinese strategy to restrict India to hamper its emergency as a economic power. Now that Pakistan is crushed under the burden of its own making of terrorism, the Chinese Dragon has decided to flex its muscles with full vigour”.They said that “the Chinese are creating an atmosphere which is quite similar to that of 1962 in which the Chinese encouraged the Naga insurgents to destablise India internally so that the Chinese are able to distort the Northern Frontiers of India. This time the situation is of greater danger as the encirclement of India is already complete due to the influence of China on the immediate neighbours of India-Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh, strategically known as the “String of Pearls”. It hangs around India like a tight noose. And support to the Maoist terrorist by these nations at the behest of China is fraught with serous consequences which are bound to balkanize India. The recent threat by China that 1962 like situation is in the offing that China want to destabilize India by encouraging the Maoists and at the same time it will not shriek from launching military offensive against India.”They asserted that “this is due to the denial mentality of the Indian policy makers who have pursued the flawed Nehruvian foreign policy from point of weakness and not from the point of strength of realpolitik. India has not played the Tibet card well. The worst faux pas came in 2003 when Vajpayee regime declared Tibet as an autonomous part of China, knowing well that China’s claim over Tibet is disputed. Infact China has illegally occupied legal part of the Jammu and Kashmir state known as Aksai Chin. If the present belligerent posturing is not confronted by building defence muscles and keeping the dialogue open on the even kneel, deterrence will not come with nuclear weapons only but with military preparedness guided with satellite surveillance. India should adopt proactive approach on Tibet to confront China in Arunachal Pradesh and J&K”.They said that “Issuing of separate papers with passport for the Indian citizens of J&K visiting China is serious development which is direct threat to the sensitive state of J&K which is already confronting the conflict. China has already access to the state of J&K from the occupied territory of the state from the Pakistani side. If the same meek attitude of Indian policy makers continues then there is an unfortunate possibility that POK will be called Chinese Occupied Kashmir (COK). The central government should come out with a comprehensive policy as there is a clear link between Pakistan’s rise and fall with that of China”. The speaker urged the Indian masses to pressurize the Indian government to bar and boycott the Chinese goods in the Indian markets.Others who were present in the press conference included Suraj Singh, Akhmat Choudhary, Anil Sharma spokesman and executive members respectively.
