Neither India’s national border is secure nor the state borders: Rahul Gandhi

According to Mr Rahul Gandhi, controversies and riots are sprouting like seedlings in our country’s hallowed territory, with disastrous repercussions.



NEW DELHI — Rahul Gandhi, Congress leader and Member of Parliament, on Saturday slammed the Bhartiya Janata Party led Central government over its failure to resolve the border dispute between India and China and among the states of Assam and Mizoram.



The Congress leader said that neither the national nor the state borders of the country were secure under the present dispensation.

According to Mr Rahul, controversies and riots are sprouting like seedlings in our country’s hallowed territory, with disastrous repercussions.



“Neither the national border is secure nor the state border. Controversies and riots are being sown like seeds in the holy land of our country – the consequences are and will be dire,” the Congress leader said while using hashtags like #MizoramAssam #LAC in the tweet, to provide a context for the comments.

The Assam-Mizoram border dispute stretches back nearly a century and a half. While inter-state disagreements between other Northeastern states have resulted in many showdowns, the rivalry between Assam and Mizoram has seldom resulted in violence. On Monday, though, it reached new heights, with at least six Assam police officers killed and more than 50 others injured in shooting on the inter-state border.



On the other hand, the Indian Army and the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) have held 11 rounds of talks between corps commander-ranked officers since June 6 last year to resolve the border row in eastern Ladakh, but the two sides have only had limited success in hammering out an agreement for disengagement of rival soldiers deployed at friction points on the contested LAC.



After the ninth round of negotiations in mid-February, the military dialogue’s sole notable accomplishment was the pullout of front-line soldiers and weaponry in the Pangong Tso region.

Lathi Charge: A legalised method of police brutality

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence. Each new year brings fresh new hopes for millions of aspirants. These young people have expressed their strong will by deciding to dedicate the prime of their youth to preparing for numerous government examinations. In a country where social class divisions continue to be a notable phenomenon in determining one's future, Government jobs and recruitments offer the only genuine means for attaining an egalitarian society.

The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr
