India's Fight Against China is a Nightmare

Thank you Ridge Wallet for sponsoring today’s video. Check out ridge.com/taskandpurpose for up to 40% off through June 15th.
India and China have clashed in deadly brawls on their disputed border multiple times recently. An estimated 60,000 Chinese soldiers are positioned on India’s border, with main battle tanks, fighter jets and artillery facing off against 200,000 Indian forces on the other side. This is the border between the world’s two most populous nations both armed with plenty of nuclear weapons, so the consequences of this conflict extend far beyond Southeast Asia. It might as well be happening on the border with my neighbor Carl. editor note show population numbers over map animation. But what exactly are these two giants fighting over in this inhospitable 4,000 meter high altitude freezing region that is so strategically important?

Why are they fighting with sticks and stones when they have perfectly good rifles right next to them? and how can we hope to avoid all-out conflict between India and China? Hit the like button and let's get started. (Jayadeva Ranade) A former Indian National Security Advisory, believes he knows the truth about why China has recently become more aggressive in the region. It’s because Xi Jingping needs to protect his new China Pakistan economic corridor. This is Xi Jinping's most expensive belt and road project over the past decade at $65 billion dollars. When you hear about “belt and road” all the other projects are a total sideshow compared to this. Because the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. CPEC will add a new 10,000 km shorter route for oil transport from the middle east to enter western China.
This will eliminate China’s single greatest strategic vulnerability to the US navy blockading and cutting off their energy supply. There’s only one problem: it's located just a few kilometers from India’s disputed border with Pakistan. And to make matters worse, it’s located inside Pakistan Occupied Kashmir so the roads and railways pass directly through territory that has been claimed by India as their own. It would be like if my neighbor Carl started expanding his driveway into the weird place between our yards where we’re not sure who owns it but we agreed neither of us would start construction there. Cut that out Carl. According to India this project is being built in illegally occupied territory. So India has tens of thousands of soldiers located a few kilometers away from this strategically important trade route for China.
In September 2020, India’s Chief of Defence Staff (General Bipin Rawat) acknowledged this very problem stating “Chinese economic cooperation with Pakistan, in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, along with continued military, economic and diplomatic support mandate high levels of preparation by us.” One of my favorite proverbs from India is “where the needle goes the thread follows” I think CPEC has accelerated tensions on the border. Because in response to Chinese build up in 2021 India shifted 50,000 additional troops to their border with China to reinforce the region. They did this by taking 20,000 troops and 6 army divisions off their western border with rival Pakistan to prioritize defense against China instead. This represents a 40% increase in force strength from 2020.

I got caught in the middle of the Indian/Pakistan conflict in Kashmir back in 99 as a photojournalist covering the war in Kargil. You just can't imagine how insane the territory is; cliff-face warfare, Billy goats w/guns I kid you not. This was when they were pointing nukes at each other, although they still are, but this was bad. I've covered a few conflicts & none of them were as implausible as that war. They'd be firing at each other from mountaintop to mountaintop & entire mountainsides would be blown out from beneath them. It was horrific as all war is, but fighting in territory like that is unlike anything I've ever witnessed or even seen portrayed on film tbh.

[@Aashu299]

That was the first war in our history recorded on camera. Pakistanis left their dead soldiers behind and ran away. It’s on KZbin.

[@BigBrotherTheWatcher1984]

That wasn't even the worst war India and Pakistan have fought. In fact many people don't even call it a war, for many, it was a few months-long skirmish in which Pakistanis disguised as terrorists occupied Indian territory but were removed.

Indian troops had to climb 75 to 80 degrees near vertical climbs to recapture the territories that Pakistanis occupied during the winters when Indian troops had emptied the bunkers on mountain tops and had come down.

[@TGill22]

Jeigh Neither India asked USA to give access to GPS so we can see locations of Pakistani army on mountains US declined, that is why it got messy. Because Pakistan wanted to control that territory and cutoff rest of the india from Kashmir, so they send their soldiers to capture that heights which were always abandoned due to extreme winters. So all this happened Pakistan started war but US like always supported military dictators in Pakistan, denied india any help so war get prolonged and messy

Back in the 90's I read an excerpt of a CIA assessment about a possible war breaking out between China and India in the year 2025. The theory was that this war would be based on the water table. Whoever made this assessment wasn't too far off the mark.

[@ericspecullaas2841]

In truth, water is far more valuable than gold, silver, or billions of dollars. If you were in a desert dying of thirst, you would do anything for water. Water is the live blood of all economics. Look at Chinas crops right now in 2023. They are going to have a 90% reduction in crop yields because of no water, then flooding then the equipment being held up at checkpoints with big fines. At this rate China will have to import food or face a mass starvation of 600 million people.

you should research it more. its worse than you think. the war between india and china wont be over land but water. china being a particularly nasty neighbor as it has build 4 dams on the largest fresh water river that flows from tibet to india, and are building 3 more just before it enters india. they also plan on building 1000 mile tunnels to take that water back to china. millions in india and tibet depend on that water for farming and drinking. the water levels already started to drop where they gotta dredge it for boats to get through. and india is already building infrastructure to prevent a massive flood in case of a kinetic event on those dams. i put it at 3-5 years before war breaks out. if china attacks taiwan, i think india moves in to liberate tibet as china will be in a 2 front war. you mess with someones water supply, its a life or death issue basically. india told china not to build those dams, and china basically told india to fawk off.

When discussing casualties at the border, it is crucial to recognize a significant distinction. India consistently upholds a commendable level of transparency and honesty in providing information to its people. Conversely, the PLA does not share the same obligation and often manipulates casualty figures. Another notable aspect to emphasize is the disparity in preparedness between the two nations. India's long-standing engagement in low-intensity counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations along its borders has resulted in a highly trained and battle-hardened military. In contrast, the PLA relies primarily on numerical superiority and has demonstrated weaknesses in mountainous terrains.

However, you say: "... in response to Chinese build up in 2021 India shifted 50,000 additional troops to their border with China to reinforce the region. They did this by taking 20,000 troops and 6 army divisions off their western border with rival Pakistan to prioritize defense against China instead." I am not a Military Expert, but I would think that India, with its 1.4 + Billion people, would have enough troops to cover BOTH its borders with Pakistan and China.

[@videowale7720]

You are right sir India has 5 million troops in reserve.

[@JaskiSingh]

valid point, but it is easier to send re-enforcement from closer areas, especially since the enemy on that side of the border is failing on it it's own, their government or the lack of it (since the past two years now ) is weakened, they have other bigger problems to solve than border disputes.. also here are some points if you want to know more : 1) that the Chinese army is conscripts, most of whom did not want to join the army, especially not for a "far off" and "cold and brutal" territory, the economic gains of which are for the CCP leadership.. where as in India it is a volunteer army, the soldiers and officers are real soldiers who are not only battle hardened but also very passionate and patriotic about what they are doing. 2) The US intel to India is a little difficult to buy since historically the USA has supplied info, weapons and airplanes to India's enemy state - Pakistan. and also tried it's best to make sure India does not develop nuclear weapons. several reports suggested that the CIA was involved in the deaths of quite a few Indian scientists. 3) always remember, anywhere in the world especially in Asia and Africa, if you see trouble at the border between two countries you can safely assume the British have a hand in it, and if it is inside the country it is safe to assume the Americans have a part to play. This applies to Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Taiwan, China, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, the two Koreas, Afghanistan and most of the disputes in the middle east and Africa. If the Wall Street and the London Stock Exchange disappeared somehow I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these conflicts died out within a few decades of that event too...

For most of history, India and China did not share a border. There were "buffer" states between them, especially Tibet. And parts of Tibet were ruled or controlled by Indian empires for centuries, especially the western parts. Indians freely traveled to near the headwaters of Indus and Brahmaputra, at Mount Kailash and Mansarovar because they are holy to Hindus, Buddhists, and Jains. Buddhists call it Mount Meru. Lots of cultural ties. But these were with Tibetans, not so much the Han Chinese. All this changed only after the Communist China attacked and conquered Tibet. India had police forces helping Tibetan government but Nehru backed down like a lap dog and stayed silent while Mao gobbled up Tibet, hoping it would end there. Of course it did not end there, for Mao soon took over Aksai Chin, the far eastern plateau portion of Ladakh region of Kashmir. And it still controls it, and has been salami-slicing further west into Indian Ladakh at every opportunity. The clashes happened there 3 years ago because India under Modi finally built a motorable road all the way to the northern sector for its military forces; this road run parallel to the LAC and passes barely a couple of miles from it...The Chinese thought they could simply salami-slice right through it, but were confronted and rejected. And so now the tense situation holds. China would love to take more territory and push India east of the Shyok and Nubra rivers, and threaten India's hold over the Siachin glacier, a sore thumb for China's friend Pakistan.

Well that is just false before communist china invaded tibet was under control of qing. I don't know if India controlled those territory before but i know mongols or yuan empire also has full control over tiber. So saying Communist China first invaded is false

[@meilinchan7314]

It's more complicated than that. There never was a truly unified Tibet after the 800s, and if there was a Tibetan nation, it consisted mainly of a loose confederation of fortified monasteries in the Himalayas. Yes, some Tibetans chose to form a unified nation of their own under the Dalai Lama in the 20th century, but there were also others who instead sided with KMT China (and much later, CCP) who did not recognise nor entertain the idea of the Dalai Lama as their leader. The parallels between Tibet and, say Ukraine in the 1600s, Germany in the 1700s and Checnya and the Caucasus in the 1800s and 1900s cannot be ignored.

Lol, yes it was peaceful throughout centuries of the "India Empire." It seems you only blame the British for all your problems but never for territory taken from others under their rule.

​@@mintheman7so why is China trying to take Mongolia as well . CCP Map of China includes Parts of Japan and Russia

[@mintheman7]

@@ChandranPrema123 Did they stop teaching you world history in India? Mongolia was part of Qing China and was created as a buffer state between communist China and Soviet Union after WWII by agreement. That's why Taiwan, or Republic of China still claims it as its own territory. But the PRC doesn't claim it. CCP map includes parts of Japan and Russia because those were territories taken by them before or during WWII by invasion. Given India didn't exist as a country before 1947, it doesn't have these "historical problem." Think of it as Kashmir x10.

You pronounced those rivers perfectly bro! I guess all those proverbs were originally meant for Pakistan. Pakistan is that person who dumped their boyfriend and got jealous when that boyfriend got married so she's in live in relationships with the USA and China.

Thanks!

very good content

[@shehryarpal8610]

Would be great to get more videos covering the countries in the region, their local military developments, history, etc. India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh especially given their extremely varied arsenals.

[@Farweasel]

It would be enlightening too to focus further on Water resources. Never mind "Probably not going to be wars over water" The facts wars over clean water are looking ever more inevitable in multiple regions............. and *sure as sure is sure, open conflict between Pakistan & China with India IS going to break out once China starts wrok in earnest on damning the rivers in Tibet which supply India*

[@jeffreysemrow5646]

Look for books by byron farwell. He covers the British rule of india in great depth and entertainment. A master of the subject. Has a book on the Gurkhas from Nepal as well. You won't be disappointed.

😅 doesn't it sound strange that Pakistani terrorist organisation attacking chinese who are investing in their country, why simply don't say that Indian sponsored terrorist organisations are doing that by the way it must also be noted that Pakistan arrested Indian navy commander (in army ranks equivalent to the rank of colonel) Kalbhushan Jadhav who was sponsoring the terrorist activities in Pakistan
