Summary/Abstract |
The Galwan incident that occurred between China and India near the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in early June carries with it extremely acute consequences on the bilateral, regional, and global levels. The world’s two most populous nations are destined to intensify their competition with one another at all levels irrespective of whatever they might say to the contrary. Both countries must recognise this inevitability, prepare themselves accordingly, but importantly retain reliable channels of communication in order to manage their rivalry as responsibly as possible given the mutually disastrous outcome of a conventional war by miscalculation that might easily spiral out of control.

Summary/Abstract |
The recent violent and bloody conflict between the frontier forces of China and India have caused serious casualties, something rare in the past 45 years (see the note at the end of the article). The conflict was caused by the overlapping of old and new problems between the two countries and dramatic changes in international and regional situations. This aggravated the complicated situation on the border, seriously damaging the political mutual trust and public support between China and India. Cumulatively, all this has made future development of China-India relations a lot more uncertain.

Summary/Abstract |
Describing China’s approach to border disputes, a foreign diplomat once said, “A Chinese stands on the border and takes a broad sweep of the neighbour’s land. Then he takes off his hat and throws it across the border. A while later he points to the hat on the neighbour’s land and says, ‘that hat has been there since antiquity. It proves that this has historically been my land’.”

Summary/Abstract |
On 5 August 2020, people of Kashmir ushered in the first anniversary of the day that was to change their destiny for good with a curfew. Perhaps, it was appropriate too. After all, 5 August 2019 did start with a curfew. If curfew is the fate, might as well get used to it.
