Did India not claim recently two of it's soldiers have been mutilated by Pak army? Deterrence doesn't seem to working much? Maybe bring in a few hundred thousand more? You can keep fooling yourself with this belief but your troops seem to spend more time raping, torturing, murdering and oppressing innocent people rather than deterring Pakistan otherwise soldiers wouldn't be taken like candy from a baby,
Deterrence is working. You are confusing operational cost (soldier's lives and $$) with operational objective.
Indian Army's operational objective is to defend territorial integrity of India. Ie, keep India under legislative and sovereign control of New Delhi. Pakistan's COAS (the real office in Pakistan, not Nawaz or any PM) as well as past PM's have laid sovereign claim to Indian sovereign territory. Ergo, basic strategic thought indicates, Indian army will position disproportionate forces in Kashmir, in accordance to disproportionate 'want' of Pakistan, our enemy.
Like, you think if tomorrow India starts saying 'We like chittagong', Bangladesh army won't disproportionately increase presence in Chittagong ?!
lol. I gave you the reference but you have issues doing a web search. As expected you reject a poll from Chatham House which is a very well respected independent group.
I don't have issues doing web research. You have issues understanding mathematics. Opinion polls are dime-a-dozen and some even 'scientifically conducted'. However, it has no meaning, in social application, unless it takes vast majority of subjects into consideration.
This is why, elections are viewed through legal lens and 'opinion polls' mean jack all. Because it just shows basic correlation at best, without causative factors considered.
Not to mention, if U= universal field of opinions and Y = total surveyed individuals, Y is not representative of U, if Y > U. This is why, your 'polls' do not carry any legislative or legal basis.
Someone went out and talking to a few thousand people in detail does not represent society of 11 million.
So do not equate some random opinion poll, with what legal mandates stem from.
You also are ignorant to how Gallup conduct their polls. Gallup have conducted polls in much larger population centers. This is from their site.
*sigh*. Quick question- are you educated in university level math at some degree ?
You simply do not understand- that gallup polls, like all polls, have been wrong in the past, precisely due to this selection paucity, in real life results.
You want me to consider Gallup polls, given how the Trump election predictions went ?????
He's dead that's what he is and hasn't come back to life as a cow as far as im aware. So much has happened since Nehru kicked the bucket in case you hadn't noticed. India hasn't made curfews and banned internet as part of it's oppression because it's not a joker. Surely an sensible or reasonable or intelligent PM would make a statement to calm things down, such as reaffirming the UN resolution for plebiscite. A simple yes you can have the vote if Pak move out.
Again, Nehru made those statements in the official capacity of the PMO's chief. Ie, OFFICIAL PMO statement.
Do you know what this means ? This means, this is not Nehru and the position of PMO clarified by the PM.
I am afraid, you are floundering.
First you ask for any PM -current or previous- then you completely disregard official statement made by a past PM in capacity of PMO head, coz i proved you wrong.
Look dude, simple baat hai : Proper democracies and institutions of government are NOT required to keep clarifying as others seem fit, just coz you whined. Official comment is valid into perpetuity, until decisively recanted or altered by the same office. Especially true in sovereign rights issue. Otherwise everyone else would be legally required to release 'status updates' on all its sovereign territory.
It is reductio ad absurdum of procedure, aka filibustering.
But we both know the truth, India enjoy oppressing innocent Kashmir's because they want fa to do with you,.
India enjoys keeping legal Indian territory intact and not 'give in' to the demands of an aggressor, who violated the territorial integrity of J&K permanently while aggressively occupying part of it and inciting war and terrorism over it, all the while ignoring the actual international recommendations to the solution themselves.
Seedhi baat. Pakisan is legally 100% wrong. Pakistan therefore, cannot seek legally valid solutions, before it corrects its legally wrong posture.Pakistan is in legal 'submission', is what Pakistan is.
No court in the world will take Pakistan's legal claims to sovereign rights seriously. Hence Pakistan hasn't bothered going to ICU or any such authority over it.
And Pakistan has tried a military solution, it has failed. 3 times.
Now, it is trying an insurgency solution. It too, will fail.
The 'suffering of the innocents' stops pretty much immediately, if Pakistan stops sponsoring terrorism in J&K or refuses to accept its territorial integrity.
