Nehru....who was recognised as a great statesman and a diplomat was deeply hurted by this outcome,his glorious identity on an international level was shattered into pieces. 1. The Superheros It wasn't a war for Indian army in any sense,due to misjudged policies, government didn't gave any attention towards welfare of the troops. Indian troops didn't had any war strategy or equipment,all they had was courage but war doesn't require only courage. Indian troops had the 303 guns while Chinese army had highly equipped AK47 guns. Indian troops also lacked in Sunglasses,Gumboots, Ammunition,Warm-Cloths which are essential for the war at higher altitudes. A report says,that of all the casualties India faced.... half of them were due to s

The Cuban Missile Crisis And Indo-China War(2/4) ©  blackmod.weebly.com _________________________________________________ The Cuban Missile Crisis,was a 13day crisis between America & Russia, during the course of Cold War.

It had drawn the attention of all the countries on the then superpowers, striking the timing China called war on India and made a bold move to show its power. 1.

1962 Indo-China War(1/4) The defeat of India's Credulousness financialexpress.com _________________________________________________ India & China are the most popular and fastest growing economies of Asia. The Socio-economic relations between these nations date back right from ancient times. The Silk Route not only served for trade but also facilated spread of Buddhism.  The Indo-China contemporary relations had been characterized by the border disputes resulting in military conflicts right from 1962 war to recent Doklam clash. From my point of view....the 1962 war was an unproductive clash resulting from Chinese imperial policies as the main causes of the war are still unsolved.... Arunachal Pradesh is no doubt an integral part of India,while China continues its activities in Aksai Chin.  The question arises....why did this war took place??? Was it unavoidable??? 1. The Rise of INDIA & CHINA In year 1947 India sought independence from the clutches of British. Pt.Nehru -a g

But due to American intervention India had to wind-up the war with an impact. Here it is how India made Pakistan surrender in that crisis situation. 1. The Bold Move Till 14/12/1971 the war was only limited upto the respective borders,but on that India took a bold step and attacked on the                "Pakistani Governor's house in Lahore ". As result Pakistan's courage was torn apart. On 15/12/1971 Sam Manekshaw wrote to Pakistani Maj.General-A.K.Niyazi :" There will be ceasefire from our side only when your army surrenders."
