    Hardly a mystery. India can't unilaterally alter the LoC without inviting international condemnation and being seen as an aggressor. But despite this, Pakistan has lost land in Kashmir. The undemarcated Siachen Glacier was captured by India. Turtuk and some surrounding areas were captured in...

    Kashmir news (Pakistan focus).

    I think they acknowledged that there was some kind of hit on the UN Vehicle. India doesn't allow the monitors to patrol - they just remain confined to their office India claiming that the mandate of the UN monitors has lapsed following the Shimla Agreement. They only monitor in PoK since...

    US sanctions NATO ally Turkey over purchase of Russian missile defense system

    Logically, yes. Last 4 years have shown that Americans can elect a complete buffoon. To be fair, Indians too have done that over the last 2 elections.

    I don't. It's the insult that Modi bhakts (fans) use for those Indians who reject their Hindutva agenda and ideology.
