The expansionist China has never been at peace with any of its neighbours. China has disputes with more nations that it shares borders with. China has began to believe itself to be the 'economic giant' and hence, can push smaller nations like Bhutan, Nepal, Taiwan, Vietnam, etc. However, the Chinese leadership seem no to realise how badly their economic credibility be hit if it starts war with India. Of course, India is not what it was in 1962 and this was witnessed in 1967 at Nathu La. Wouldn't the all-out war between India and China lead to a major global shift in strategic partnerships and may become a stepping stone for the Third World War? Other major military powers have overtly shown their dislike of the Chinese quests such as USA, Japan and also Russia. Is the entire Chinese exercise aimed at subduing India to toe the Chinese lines on CPEC and OBOR, to which India has already shown indifference? Isn't China bothered about its safe passage through Indian Ocean which is under Indian domination? Only port at Gwadar cannot safeguard the Chinese requirements since that too comes under the anti-China forces in the Arabian Sea. India might suffer setbacks in its ongoing economic progress if the war takes place, which is likely to be a stalemate, but the conflict will badly damage the Chinese credibility on military was well as on economic fronts.
A GERMAN COMMANDER IN THE WWII SAID " YOU MUST MEASURE WHAT YOU MIGHT GAIN BY WHAT YOU MIGHT LOSE. PRICE OF VICTORY IS NEVER CHEAP" AS LONFG AS CHINA KNOWS IT THERE WILL NEVER BE A CLASH. AND MR.SHUKLA CAN KEEP WRITING
Strong government led by Modi is giving strong message now to China. Strong message was a dream when UPA was ruled in the past. That is why China is questioning why we are objecting to them building a road.
Nothing rattles China;it battles it's way.:has great resources,That said we not fold our hands.Doing the job of facing the enemy might have undergone quite a change;that should serve us better.We have to be ever alertwith both our neighbours.
PLA had come to assam in 1962 but due to logistics problems they were forced to withdraw. In 1967, though it was not a debacle for India like 1962, casualties on Indian side was much more than PLA. Done forget that in case of all out war, China and Pakistan which have inter operability can attack India on two fronts.

You are an illiterate person. Iran is very close to pakistan both being islamic countries. Afghanistan is also an islamic country. Ghani, a CIA stooge was earlier pro-pakistan
It is sure that in the event of military confrontation, if at all happens so, then in all possibilities this will escalate to very larger confrontation after which who knows what will be China's status. Though all of us know that War is no more a solution for any problem but, I think it is China this time who will be the worst loser by economy and status as well.

Sangh Parivar will always be comfortable with a true narrative. I guess you dont know that apart from Patel the PM admires Indira Gandhi for her strategic thinking. And probably you dont know how Sangh almost worshipped Indira as Durga during 1971 war. Not like Congis who asked RSS to participate in the parade but dumped them when votes got affected
