The Corridor is, first and foremost, a vital investment for Beijing, which is slowly buying the strategic link, Beijing will soon control its new dominion, Pakistan. For India, it will be game changer as it will then directly face China on two fronts, the Northern and the Western. The Modi government should ponder about this.It is a new great but not easy game. What looks like a masterstroke on paper could turn into a nightmare for both China and Pakistan, unless India is taken onboard.But at a time Pakistan continues to fuel unrest in the Kashmir valley with the silent consent of China, how can Islamabad get New Delhi's blessings for such a gigantic project? Today, China and Pakistan may be gambling, but China has no choice but to understand India's concerns on this issue.
