DOKLAM ISSUE
Since the year India got its independence till now the
relation between India and China is so pathetic. In the year 1950, the US
government offered India the United Nations Security Council permanent seat but
our first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru turned it down on the advice of USSR
lest China got offended. Now china is the main reason why India is not getting
it. China’s aggression has not stopped. 1962 indo-china war, forcefully
capturing Aksai china, aggression in Tibet, Arunachal land problem, igniting the
problem in Kashmir are some of the examples China made in these years. The latest addition to the list is the Doklam Issue.
Doklam is area situated between India, Bhutan and Tibet. It
is near to Sikkim. And originally it is a small part of Bhutan. In the year
2017, China started constructing a road through Doklam which was opposed by
Bhutan. So China started increasing its Military power near the place
establishing Helipads, trenches and more than 1800 Chinese troops were
stationed there. Then Bhutan asked India’s help and together Bhutan and India
opposed China. India also strengthened its presence in that region. Tactically India
is more powerful in that region. Therefore China moved back.
But why suddenly china started increasing its presence
there? The main reason may be Siliguri Corridor. Doklam is near to the place
Siliguri corridor which is called the chicken’s neck of India. It is the
corridor point which connects the north eastern part of India to its mainland. So,
having a greater presence of China in that place will surely increase risk in the
Indian defense.
Though China stepped down a little, the problem yet not
solved. China and India are the two super powers of Asia and they should
resolve the issue between them for the sake of both the nations.
