Mr. Gupta isn't it a erroneous to suggest that in the 2019 General Elections *only 45% of **_"all adults_** in India" voted in favour of NDA led by Mr. Modi* when in reality NDA led by *Mr. Modi received 45% of **_"all votes cast"_** instead?* Especially so when we know for sure that there is a significant gap between the *"total number of votes"* & *"total number of votes cast"* during our General Elections! I mean to say that afterall 45% of "total voters" did not vote for NDA. Instead only "45% of voters who cast their votes" in 2019 General Elections actually voted for NDA. Ergo when (a) 100% of Indian voters did not cast their vote and (b) NDA received 45% votes of only those voters who cast their votes then (c) it is wrong to say that "45% of Indian Adults voted for Mr. Modi". It would have been true only if Polling Percentage was 100% ie. every voter had exercised his/her voting right and then out of those 100% votes pollled if BJP+Allies had received 45% votes in their favour.

This EEZ actually is closed to Ishigaki Islands rather than Senkaku Islands. Ishigaki islands are much closer to Taiwan(around 100-150 kms). Its a popular tourist place in Japan.

Fun fact, the EEZ actually claimed by all three countries TAIWAN, JAPAN and CHINA. It's a disputed area and if you check the map, it's obviously Taiwan's, it is fricking close to Taiwan.

impressed or not, cities get destroyed, and people's lives get lost by wars. One shall never provoke tension at the cost of human lives.

The last military escalation at this scale was 25 years ago, when US' speaker of the house then visited Taiwan. This type of visits only serve the interests of US politicians and is a cold-blooded disregard of the safety of Taiwanese people for political gains.

Circa 1962: American companies looking for investment on semiconductor manufacturing in India. As our model was Socialism, India did not agree. Americans walked into Taiwan and Singapore and rest is history. 2022: Chinese has biggest manufacturing hub for electronics, where semiconductor chips (which has grown enormously) were bought from Taiwan, with 1.20 mn Taiwanese working in China. With the recent shortage of chips, hitting automobiles and electronics industry, China controlling manufacturing and intending to take over Taiwan, which literally means China can blackmail the world. It is like gulf trying to control oil production and price. But gulf competes with each other, where China is one big influencing country. That is the reason US started to take things under control in Taiwan to checkmate China.
