Bang on. Tbh, except for Punjabis in the North sharing some linguistic and cultural traits and to lesser extent some overlap between the desert communities of Rajasthan / Gujarat in India and Sindh in Pak, rest of us wonder where this "shared heritage" nonsense comes from.

There is a lot of trade between India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan. The Indian rupee is legal tender in Bhutan. Heck, before the Taliban takeover, there was a lot of trade between India and Afghanistan too. Pakistan is a standout - A. It doesn't have much to sell B. It doesn't have...

Most of these shipping trawlers are poorly equipped. And as said, both routinely capture each others' fishermen and after spending some time in custody, are duly returned.

Unfortunate. Remember even during 26/11 Pak terrorists had kidnapped Indian fishermen and taken over a trawler.

True. If I remember correctly Congress had 200+ seats individually in UPA 2 so it's not as if their Govt. was ever threatened. But yes, not in 3.5 decades has a Govt. had absolute majority. So you are right about that.

Happy Diwali to all.

I don't know how your President is corrupt. But more than financial corruption, Modi has been corrupting institutions that make a democracy a free and fair nation. Not that previous Govts have not done so, it's the degree to which Modi does it that is staggering.

Wonders will never cease.
