Guys, have you thought of how pakistani and indians become best friends while living in west? You know why, because politics is not involved there. We people to people love each other and it should be maintain while we are living in out countries as well.

Talking about two nuclear weapons equipped nations is a foolishness. Nothing will remain there in case of full fledged war. Its a reality that both the countries have to live together as neighbors so why not good neighbors than talking and creating war hysteria. Right now, we have been listening the truth that is delivered to us by these news channels who I am sure have no correspondent on border to tell us whether a certain incident has happened or not.

Who opened the fire first and who infiltrated whose land. So, all that is shown in our bedrooms is not complete truth. War mongers will play their role but nothing is better than peace, nothing worse than war. More blood will only depart from us our loved ones, nothing else. So better talk about peace and prosperity.

A mutual understanding between the two countries is very much essential. But I strongly believe that any job is not one-sided So even if India has taken the initiative many times a good understanding or cooperation rather has not been received from the Pakistanis yet. They seem to be totally disinterested in sorting out the problems and coming out with a good solution against the terrorists. So according to me I feel war is the only option.

Hello Everyone,

Ever since independence Pakistan has been under political radar of India for various wrong reasons. Historically, Indo-Pak relations have been hostile primarily because of the three major wars fought after independence & act of terrorism perpetuated by them. Pakistan is of strategic importance to India. Thus against this backdrop we must take into cognizance that, it is in the best interest of India that Pakistan stays stable and peaceful.

Ironically, not only India but also Pakistan faces serious threat of violence & unrest due to extremism. Extremism is not unique to Pakistan but the problem originates with active involvement of these extremist & fundamentalist groups in politics over the past decade or so. Not only politically but also socially they have been successful in spreading their branches across many parts of country & also their infamous intelligence agency that are known to be hand in gloves with such extremist. This has paralyzed and hijacked the democracy of country.

Since many decades India has been trying to resolve various issues with Pakistan through diplomatic channels but unfortunately Pakistan has not been co-operative as one would expect it to be. Pakistan reciprocated not even to single demand put forth by India on charges of terrorism against their extremist, in spite of many documentary evidences. All this is because of the political turmoil that the country is facing. This renders all the dialogues and negotiations useless. Diplomacy doesn't work with such unyielding participation.

I would like to raise the question to those proponents of diplomatic ties with Pakistan, notwithstanding the generosity & resilience that this great country India has shown over the years, what have we received in return? Innumerable ceasefire violations, border infiltration, decapitation & mutilation of our soldiers, events like 26/11, extra-judicial killing of Indian prisoners in their jails with complete disregard to human rights regulations & many more. For those dubious about China gaining an upper hand over Pakistan because of India's split, things are not better off with diplomatic ties as well; China continues to have an upper over Pakistan regardless of India's policy with Pakistan because of its vested interest in Kashmir which is of strategic importance to China as well.

Now we must realize that peace talks & diplomacy are total sham & too much of water has flown under the bridge. India isn't a banana republic anyone can come and do whatever it feels like. Before we face serious repercussions because of our ignorance, we must exert some pressure on Pakistan. This can be done by enforcing an embargo on Pakistan, next by revoking a major Indo-Pak treaty such as Indus Water Treaty that may potentially create situation of drought and famine in some parts of Pakistan. Also aiding the rebellions of their disputed territory of Balochistan may prove effective in counteracting the extremist of Pakistan. Lastly, by rejecting their demand for electricity from India. These steps may sound aggressive and harsh to many but may prove effective in long run, these policies create crisis by stealth and may prove handy to dictate terms. After all these suggested remedies are just mild dose of their own medicine.

Many of my friends have made very good points. I would say that war causes destruction which is not a solution to any problem. And disputes between any two country is going to sow the seed for World war 3. So it may be the end of whole world as more or less every country is owing the Nuclear bomb which is capable of destroying the whole country at once.

But it is also true that India is tolerating a lot. We can't go on tolerating and Pakistan will be doing nonsense on various issues like boarder's issue, or terrorism. Recently it was in news that how our two great soldiers were brutally killed by them and then their reaction has been seen by the whole world.

They have always lied white. I do not want that any war happen but at least we should be strict enough on these issues with Pakistan. The whole world saw how America entered the Pakistan and killed Laden. Today the whole world including the Pakistan is in tension on the issue of Terrorism so this is the time to make a unity and clean the whole Talibani group. Otherwise these people are very soon going to capture Pakistan and it would become more difficult to suppress them.

Ya friend I was also in favour that we should not break relationship but whenever we put trust on them they break our trust. And I think that now we have to show their original face in mirror. Whenever we ask for help in investigation of any bomb blast they clearly say no. And now a days India is going to superpower and we have no need of relationship with pakistan. Jay hind.

I think INDIA should not break relations with PAKISTAN because both countries have equal financial capacity. So, instead of breaking relations ministers of both the countries should sit together and discuss the problem among both countries and try to solve it and make mutual understanding between the peoples of both countries.

Thank you.

Hello friends.

According to me every country have their goals and strength. India is a great country and Pakistan is also in terrorism. I think we should not break the relation with Pakistan because so many singer in the India the are from Pakistan and so many Indian cricket in Indian team are the Pakistani and there are so many economics relation with Pakistan.

So we should not break the relation with Pakistan.

It will be a waste of time for Indian nationals to even think of these things. India is much stronger, powerful and developed nation than Pakistan. Pakistan does not have a stable govt to govern the country. Pakistani nationals are barred entries in majority of the developed countries on Globe. All they give to world is militants and sick thoughts.

They are not even worth discussion for any ties or bonds. India should definitely ban entry for any Pakistani National. Border security should be strict. Consulates from Indian Embassy should reject all Visa applications right away for Pakistan Passports. Pakistan embassy be sealed moving further. No trades or bonds. Lives of Indian Nationals should not go waste when they die for their country saving their nation from Pakistan Attacks every other day. They should realize what they will get by being inhumane.

India is a great nation. We are now aiming to reattain our global supremacy through economic development, high educational and technological advancements as well as military capabilities to compete with other powerful countries. We are now respected as a responsible nation and are on the verge of receiving global acceptance as a peace loving world power. Pakistan shares its history and culture with India and barring a small section of their country, majority of Pakistanis want close relationship with us. They are greater victims of terrorism than us. Therefore, instead of breaking ties with them, we will earn greater world respect by helping them combat the menace of poverty, unemployment and terrorism by suitable dialogues with the peace loving section of the Pakistani populace. This will benefit us too, by allowing us to save huge defence expenses and make us an economic powerhouse.
