Today I get up with the news, that
there is going to be held foreign minister level talk between India and
Pakistan……..Not again! Problems between India and Pakistan is not new, and we
have talked hundreds of time with the hope of easing our tensions (with the
help of different strategies, including people to people contacts , media and
trade relations, friendly train and bus service, and cricket) but nothing
really worked. There always struck historic emotions(especially defeat in bangladesh war) of gaining and losing
between our relations with Pakistan. Pakistan also knew that it has loosen
behind India in the race of overall development. Whatever progress they
achieved has invested in feeding communal forces, terrorism, intelligence
conspiracies and much dreaded arms race with India. After capturing around 1/3rd
of Kashmir in the war of 1948 itself, diplomacy of Pakistan still stuck around
issues of Kashmir, sir creek (marshy area along Pakistan-Gujrat border), some
rivers flowing through northern india etc, which they point out for
infiltrations and shameful terrorist attacks, which cause hundreds of lives in
india. I am not getting much deeper in the politics of Kashmir(which consist of
jihadis, separatist and communal forces, incompetent governments and
development issues,etc), as I think it is our internal matter and once Pakistan
give us free hand in tackling these issues without their interference and
support to traitors, we shall easily see a progressing and democratic kashmir in
recent future. We can observe that these issues have stretched so long that
this hatred and suspicion has reached the level of people which is I think is
most unfortunate. It is of such nature that beside the politicians, people of
both the countries know that these talks aren’t going to give any concrete solutions
to our problems with Pakistan. It become a matter of prestige and ego between
people of both the countries, against which only strong democratic governments(which
is only a hope for Pakistan in recent future) have the courage to adopt some
working practical measures. So till then wait and have faith in cricket that it
become more friendly and have the potential to make overall atmosphere more
cordial, as there is little that the governments are going to do…..
