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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I totally agree with all our previous speakers that.
Breaking diplomatic ties will led to war,
India is a strategic partner of Pakistan,
Pakistan is also facing similar crunch of terrorism as india,
But my question from all is until when?
Every time we give chance to pakistan and it always not live up to our expectations.
How could we forget "kargil war" were thousands of our soldiers were killed. As long as "Kashmir" issue will be there Pakistan will not stop doing such things.
We should ask from them whose mother, sister, brother, father, son, daughter died in 26/11 terrorist attack. What was there fault? Answer will be Surely nothing. Recently 2 of our Indian soldiers were beheaded and 5 our army men were shot dead by them. Enough is enough, we should teach a lesson to pakistan and break diplomatic ties with them.

Cultural interaction should never stop. We ought to understand each other which helps in removing the illusion which pakistani leaders have created at the ground level among common masses. But our security agencies have to fight the terrorists activities executed by pakistan army as well as the extremists at the same time. We should understand that the pakistan comes in two pieces (common people who wants peace and harmony in the region and other, the culprits are the social evils consists of politicians, extremists etc. ) India should always be ready to fight the war against anyone who create unrest in the region. We have to win this fight against terrorist by using terrorism against social evils and by social interaction at every level possible.

If diplomatic ties are broken it will lead us to war which will result in loss of blood of innocents but there is limit of tolerance of everything. Everytime we trust Pakistan result comes as simple betray. They are trying word puzzle with us because there govt says they want peace but their army and extremist kill our brave soldiers everyday.
I think our country should never sit quiet requesting Pakistan every time for peace. Time to find out who is causing this and why. Attack that individual or group collect enough evidence to show Pakistan like america done in case of laden. Our govt politicians even remark like this that people join army to die. If we underestimate and show sincerity to Pakistan after our soldiers killed brutally one day will must come when no one will join Indian army.

Well speaking as a Kashmir from Baramulla, I have not read such naivety. India and Pakistan have never had any sort of diplomatic relations to speak off except through the gun barrel. Why do you assume that either sides army is innocent of violations. There are no innocents when armies have their interests to worry about. Neither are looking for peace as attrition is in their self interest. Its jobs for the boys so what if a few are sacrificed on the way. Without a free Kashmir with friendly and open borders with India and Pakistan we will not have peace.
