At Dokla China's Build Up Has No Military Logic, Say Sikkim Sector Specialists 

Even we common Indians do not know much about it. To say it frankly anything about it.

@Bill Blinky yup with a brewski in the shed..

Yup. Quality content. Very educative. For the discerning. Thank u Nithin ji. Thanks a million

Agree ! the border there more inaccessible compared to any of the sectors ! Unheard of issues there !

Agree it’s not easy from this end. But was looking for a perspective on the tibet front by the Chinese. Those who have served may have an idea on it.

Bureaucracy is failing all india

Talking about Bhutan and Nepal, and worried about India's security in relation to them? These two ex-generals are not exactly big picture people. About India's neighbors, this is an extract from a written piece about political realism by a gentleman Iftekhar Chowdhury who compares them to the Melian Dialogue of Greek historian Thucydides: Much has been written about the parallels between the United States-China rivalry and the Sparta-Athens power struggle. Less examined is the Melian Dialogue as applied to South Asia. In the modern context, China's strategy in dealing with India is more circumscribed: The goal is not so much to subjugate its southern neighbour but to keep India from impeding China's rise to becoming peer of the US, by creating difficulties for it to completely align with the US.... The SOP from China to India has been the lure of 'disengagement' along the Line of Actual Control, swopping a piece of India's restraint for a piece of peace. At the second level, China is cast in the role of Athens while tiny Nepal and Bhutan play the part of Melos in the strategic game. With a nudge and a wink from China, deeply involved with Nepal's infrastructure projects, Nepali Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli a communist, feels emboldened to stand up to India. His government is fanning anti-Indian sentiments domestically and has incorporated into Nepal's map some territories also claimed by India. Tiny Bhutan was already wary of opening itself to regional transport arrangements linking with India for fear of an onrush of tourists. Left to itself, it would prefer direct diplomatic links with Beijing that India would not allow for. To exert pressure, China laid claim to a chunk of Bhutanese territory, creating further awkwardness for India, which is treaty-bound to protect Bhutan's security. The Chinese intent here is also not to destroy the two Meloses, but to wean them from the adversary. How the strategy will pan out, we are yet to see. Sun Tsu Art of War

I agree Perfect position for SSB personal interview

It's Anbu

I also have same thought... but that time we had Nehru... But we can negotiate and give more land to Bangladesh to take some minor land at silluguri

Indian IT companies can't beat Chinese apps in their homeland, how can you have confidence that they can defeat Chinese in cyber war

I was talking about our prep and what needs to be done to fill the gap. Also such topics are necessary to discuss to have comprehensive idea of warfare

@Lady Anon Can u provide the link here or by what name is the video

Ignoring Siliguri corridor is it a political blunder or in other words politicians messed it as they are known to do.

@Ivan Hoe exactly he is a soldier not a diplomat so expecting apt answers is more appropriate rather than subtlety

Can u tell ,what can happen In Himalayan .

May be Chinese over playing

Pakistani s have been waiting for a chance where they can get overtly and don't have to ask for help discreetly... This won't play out the way they want of course, but they have a play engineered by a China perfect for them, they need an incident in Kashmir to Initiate action, we've anyways played into their hands by getting the Kashmir issue highlighted, and we all know how well the local Kashmiris think of us know... Whatever goodwill they're was left, had been swept off by the Myopic HM...also, the biggest India loyalist also has no justification to remain so...

@@parassoni102 this will happen ? Pakistan know if they try to gain in kasmir then India will open punjam front . If Panjabi hurt whole Pakistan hurt

@@helsreach001 whether this will happen or not is not the question... We have opened the escalatory ladder, when it was not required, as we had already wrested initiative with surgical strikes.. These were purely fine for political gains domestically, like the drama that will happen tomorrow over the Bhoomi poojan...what a fall from the tall promises 6 years ago..A petty politician can only dream of becoming a statesman!

@john doe man Where the hell have you been?

come on....are you serious? It is evident the chair he is sitting on is too low for his long legs. To keep his knees parallel to the floor and get some thigh support he has to cross them.

@@TheSrij I am talking about interpersonal psychology and gestures thereof.

@john doe that's the point. When you sit in leg cross gesture or like sometimes arms close gesture. It makes a psychological barrier,thereby makes you defensive. It won't let you express that freely.

@john doe *Sitting and standing with legs crossed Body language* Sitting and standing with legs crossed, like crossing the arms, indicates a fundamentally defensive attitude. While arm-crossing is a subconscious attempt by a person to protect his vital organs- the heart and the lungs, crossing the legs is an attempt to protect the genitals. Of course, crossing the legs seems like a silly and ineffective way to hide the genitals, but our unconscious mind rarely works rationally. To be more precise, it works in ways that don’t seem rational to us. When a person feels extremely defensive, they might cross their legs besides crossing the arms. This helps them achieve a complete sense of protection since it covers all their ventral delicate organs. We usually observe this gesture in a person who’s standing at a distance from a group. They may feel unaccepted, self-conscious, or anxious or they may simply be a stranger to the group. Such a vulnerable position demands an action that makes us feel secure. By subconsciously protecting all our ventral delicate organs, we successfully achieve that sense of security. Standing with legs crossed (leg scissors) Sometimes, when people are feeling mildly defensive, they don’t fully cross their legs in the standing position. Instead, they simply cross one foot over the other while the displaced foot rests on the toes. This is a kind of partial legs-crossing gesture. The defensive feelings are not intense, but somewhere in the back of their mind, they’re unsure and feel that they might get ‘kicked in the nuts’. This gesture can also convey a different attitude. When a person is totally committed to a conversation, unwilling to leave, they might ‘fold-up’ in position and rivet themselves to the spot by taking up this gesture. The logic behind this is that when we’re afraid of something, we want to run away from it and so our bodies remain in an alert position. When we don’t feel like running away from a situation, we tend to fold ourselves into position just as animals fold themselves up when they’re relaxing or sleeping. We can’t run away if we’re riveted to the spot and have to unwind first in case we decide the situation has turned unfavorable. We do this gesture when we know we have to stay in one place for quite a while. For example, when we have to wait for a person, a bus, or a train. When people know they’re about to engage in a long conversation, they may lean against the wall and take up this gesture. It conveys the non-verbal message, “I’m not going anywhere. Keep talking.” Sometimes both the attitudes of defensiveness and ‘unwillingness to leave’ can be simultaneously present. When people, especially young couples, meet each other for the first time, they feel a bit defensive. Still, they don’t feel like leaving since the experience is exciting. So it’s common to observe the ‘leg scissors’ gesture in such situations. If you observe two people talking to each other for the first time and both take up this gesture, you can safely assume that they’re either committed to the conversation. Additionally, they might be feeling slightly defensive in the back of their minds. standing with legs crossed If one of them uncrosses his legs, it either means he’s opening up to the other person or preparing to leave. If the other person continues the ‘leg-scissors’ position, it means the first person wasn’t opening up but preparing to leave because the rapport is broken without re-establishment. This is how you do elimination to figure out the meaning of gestures that can have over one meaning. You have to look at the whole situation, everything that precedes and succeeds it. Had the first person really ‘opened up’ to the other person, then both of them should’ve assumed the ‘opened up’ position as per the rules of rapport establishment. But since that did not happen, it probably means they got off on a wrong footing. Sitting cross-legged body language It conveys the same ‘closed’ and defensive attitude as that in the standing position. During a conversation, it can indicate a withdrawn attitude. People who cross their legs in the seated position tend to talk in shorter sentences and reject more proposals. They’re also are more inattentive to what’s going on compared to those who sit in a more ‘open’ position. Apart from the usual defensive attitude, the seated legs-crossed position can convey a lot more. For example, while seated, women frequently cross and uncross their legs if they like what’s going on or are in the company of people they like. Women use submissive gestures to display attractiveness. Sitting in a leg-crossed position, besides revealing the thigh, also signals submissiveness. Therefore, women unconsciously assume this position when they sit to appear attractive. Unsurprisingly, many polls and surveys have revealed that men find the seated legs-crossed position the most attractive sitting position a woman can take. crossing legs body language Why sitting cross-legged is attractive Sitting with legs crossed reduces the overall perceived size of a woman. Dominance and submission are proportional to body size. The more the body size, the more dominant an organism is perceived to be. Less the body size, the more submissive an organism is perceived to be. This is one reason men like to be larger or taller and women want to appear smaller. (Courtesy Parvej Hanan.MA psychology)

We don't believe human is a sinner. Your idea is foreign. Here in India we learn from life through our actions and it is we only know how to attain moksha. If you believe everyone is a sinner then goddamn it don't give birth to a sinner. 🙄

Not in Sikkim but in Eastern Nepal bordering West Sikkim

@@ballabubbly Thanks for clarifying

@@almosteverything9454 Thanks

@Lady Anon I did. And it sounded ambiguous. I had heard a thing like this about border areas before too, so I asked.

If there's a strategy than they will not tell the public about it.

PLA is the aggressor ... Indian army is very professional like these man speaking. They are not political like PLA .. they know their job. Where are PLA is in china gov .

Butan is already a free country .. nothing like tiwan or honk Kong is happening there ..

@Al Wa So you agreeing the very point we are making, China is the bad guy .. good guys will wait till a threshold :) bad guys ..

Our army is fighting war like you go to office everyday including Sunday and Saturday .. yes our engineers are not good but army is the only one holding us for long .. so much battle harderned is that .. war will be another day job ..

Since it is a tiny country and land locked .. indian supply many thing to them like Gas, hydropower , help in firign affairs and training polic and army .. because of china threat india also takes up it's defence any attack on it will be an attack on India

Stop capturing Bhutanese land This time we ll take back Lhasa
