The 75 th Anniversary of Atomic Bombing

The year 2020 has been the 75th anniversary of the Atomic bombing at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan by US Airforce B29 Bomber (Enola Gay) on 6th and 9th Aug 1945 during WW2 which killed 80,000 and 40,000 peoples in the respective cities. Ironically and Surprisingly this year also shares the 50th anniversary of the ratification of the Nuclear Non-proliferation treaty(NPT) under the UN mandate which comes into existence in 1970 with the objective of dismantling any Nuclear weapons and its respective technology in and around the world.

The Recent Physical clash, Brawl, and Fisty Cuff between the Indian Army and People's Liberation Army(PLA) at the icy heights of more than 13000 FTs from mean sea levels at the Eastern Ladakh of Galway valley caught the attention of not only Indians or Chinese but the entire world. As it is indeed a cause of concerns for the whole world as 2 Giants are not only the most populous country of the world but both have significant numbers of Nuclear arsenals, hence any escalations from now could lead to serious devastation. Why Does India not responding against PLA as it uses to do with Pakistan? The Debate has erupted within as to why does Indian Armed Forces or security forces not treating Chinese PLA as same as the Pakistani Army? As because of the frequency of our encounters with the Pakistani Infiltrators or the Unprovoked ceasefire violation by Pakistani Forces at the Indo Pak borders, all Indians are pretty accustomed to such news as always India does give befitting repl

While the world has been grappling with the deadliest and contagious virus, originated from Wuhan, China after recovered partially from the pandemic starts flexing its muscles again in the region of the South China Sea. This hegemonic approach of China is not new to the world but what makes it paramount is the "TIME" and it shows how the Chinese are opportunistic Expansionists. If China would have been one of the Characters from Mahabharata, then it must be "Duryodhan" who never get satisfied with its own Territory and want others as well. The South China Sea The South China sea is a part of the Pacific ocean which has been surrounded majorly by Southeast Asia (Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia) and China.
