First off, I think it makes no sense to say that Mithra's article may be causing things to happen. He is just analyzing the scenario. Secondly, it is not just one militant in Bangla Desh. Every time the GOI tries its high-handed activities and ends up killing an innocent, ten militants are born.

What is required is true statesmanship, not brinksmanship. But in the present surcharged atmosphere where many people consciously opt for "solutions" that are viscerally satisfying even if they could screw up things a whole lot more, statesmanship is a little bit too much to ask for.

Dipy.

Ratan:

I tend to agree with you and your reasoning. I might point out that Indians by and large by inclination a democratic people. People are eating better than before. India is actually exporting food to other nations. As long as religious riots don't happen, there is no break up of the nation.

Also Punjab and Assam are getting back into the fold. It is just a question of time that Kasmiris will consider India, a secular state, as their nation. What the Kashmiris need is food, shelter, education, peace, work, and a great tourist industry. India will make sure they will have them. When a nation or a state has all these needs satisfied, there won't be any break-away tendencies.
