A setback for the tourism industry. And congress promotes an ordinance on Food Security. Opposition turns it undemocratic and a gimmick. And now for all the details. The dragon has once it again shown its true colors. Despite commitments of peace by china, the Peoples Liberation army has displayed its real intention. Just a few hours before the minister embarked on his trip, the chinese general provoked india by warning it not to provoke and create new troubles for china. Here is a report. Tensions rose between israel and china when just before the Indian Defense ministers visit to beijing, a top chinese Major General, also the executive resident of China Strategy Culture Promotion Association said, the indian side should not remote new problems and increase military deployment on the border and start new trouble. Strategic Community Defense and Foreign Ministry in new delhi was shaken by the rude comments from the chinese general hours before the defense ministers visit to china. He also said there is still 90,000 kilometers of territory occupied by the indian side. These are problems left over from history and we need to look at it with a cool head. If a serving Major General in the pla can make a Statement Like this, what i in for as an analyst is that the Chinese Military is trying to assert what it deems to be its own position on the territorial and border dispute with india what i infer. And yet, we know, that whether it is in china or india, that it is the Political Leadership that has to provide the framework in which the accommodation is going to be realized. Its not long ago that the two neighbors and asian giants were locked in a bitter conflict over the chinese incursion. Beijing seems to be in a hurry to resolve the ageold border dispute with india, but on its terms, which favors china more than india. In the latest round of order talks, china brought up its draft of order cooperation agreement. Experts believe that new delhi needs to take a tough line against beijing. India has clarified that it would not rush to any conclusion on the border talks. It is a calibrated attempt to give this press conference on the eve of arrival. The government of india has been put on a back foot. They were also put in a calibrated manner on back foot when their Prime Minister was going to visit india. The idea is to put mr. Anthony and india on back foot. India and china have been holding talks over the disputed border. Of late, with a change of guard, china has become the aggressor, especially when it comes to the border dispute. New delhi sees this as a sign after it already fought a war with china in the 1960s. The defense minister is there. The defense minister will handle it. If there is any, he will ask us. We are not going to create a problem for the defense minister while he is there. He has gone there. He is talking. He will be taking part in talks with the chinese authorities including defense authorities. In the last decade, china has been closing up with indias hostile neighbor, developing roads and other infrastructure. There are reports that china is also assisting pakistan to build new nuclear reactors. Similarly, china is working on encircling india with its string of pearls strategy and is warming up tradition indian allies. Meanwhile, beijing has distanced itself from the generals remarks and both nations agreed to increase strategic demonstration, but strategic experts feel that spells of tension between the economies will keep on a routing until the settlement of the long pending boundary dispute. Fighting back after the deadly terror attack on a foreign mountaineers. Locals fear this will have deep implications on the already doddering tors and industry. Locals blame islamabad. These residents are on the streets to tell the world that they are peaceloving people. [chanting] this candlelight vigil is to appear to the tourists that they should not turn their backs to the mountainous region, which is one of the worlds tallests peaks and is a wellknown mountaineering destination. Recent incidents of terrorism and specifically, last weeks killing of a foreign delegation, has created a fierce psychosis among the tourists. No industry, no service sector, and the only source of income is tourism, which is bound to suffer from the recent incidents of terrorism in the region. People fear that they may lose their breadandbutter and source of livelihood. Locals blame the Pakistani Spy Agency for promoting terrorism and sectarianism and hold him responsible for tarnishing the image of this peaceloving region for its own interest. Some reports also suggest that islamabad wants to make it a new base camp for militants. Many believe that congress has sounded by introducing a Food Security bill through an ordinance which would provide huge subsidies to two three of indias population. Incoming Congress to fight opposition and took the ordinance about for the bill. Congress thinks that Food Security would prove to be a game changer, like loan waiver schemes they had introduced in the past. Will Food Security work for congress the same way . Here is a report. With an eye on general elections, the party has promulgated an ordinance. The congress dismissed all opposition to the bill, whether it came from outside or within, from the opposition or allies. Congress believes that Food Security would ensure a guaranteed 22 three of the country. The party also believes that the bill is the answer to malnutrition and would eradicate hunger and starvation in the country and would give boost to the economy. Moreover, the congress believes that it could be a real game changer in the general elections, which are due next year. We have unanimously approved the national Food Security ordinance. The Food Security bill would add an enormous burden on the economy and could widen the fiscal deficit. Furthermore, economist and Economic Analysis firms believe india cannot afford it and it is unviable. But the congress defies all this logic and has decided to go ahead with the bill. For many of our poor people, this maybe even lifechanging. This may be lifesaving. For many who are malnourished, delaying it by a single minute can save lives. Whether it is the nationalist congress party, the printable opposition party, they are opposing the bill. They commonly believed that it is the congress can make to catch votes you make gimmick to catch votes. I am personally opposed to the Food Security bill because it will cause more harm than good for the people of this country, but everyone is opposed to the ordinance route. I do not know why the government is deciding to follow that route. I hope they will not, but if they do, then it will be most undemocratic and not the way an important demonstration like this should be treated. In previous elections, Congress Gave farmers loans and have been effectively using the Employment Program to capture the hearts and minds. Whether the Food Security bill will do the same remains to be seen. Observers say that the congress brought the food bill to move the common man and to dispel all the negativity surrounding the government because of its tainted ministers and numerous scams. The pundits also believe that it will ride on the success of the bill.
