Why hasn't it been refurbished?

Let me assure you - for most Indians, even if you wanted to join India, we would refuse. Heck, we actually conquered part of Sindh in 1971 and happily returned it. Whether you end up as one state or 3/4 states - depends on the path you choose.

At no point were the Sikhs or Marathas interested in conquering Europe or moving toward the Middle East. What is present day Pakistan was captured and conquered was not because of any geographical reason - it was conquered because it was a low hanging fruit.

Thanks. It would be prudent for you to read some real HISTORY. In the real world - this area was conquered by all and sundry. British, Sikhs, Afghans, Marathas. Mughals too at some point. Being unconquerable and being ungovernable are two different things. Nepal (AFAIK) was never conquered for...

Is it? They happily took Israeli weapons during the Afghan War.

Where did he apply for asylum?

First of all no one can have a serious talk with a Hindutva fan. They never state facts. Hindutva fans believe WhatsApp forwards than actual books. Like Nehru was Jinnah's half brother and Taj Mahal was a Hindu temple named Tejo Mahalya.

Please avoid ad hominem attacks. It violates forum rules. Thanks.

Did they run away and apply for asylum overseas? Or did they use the Indian system to ensure they not only got out from detention (not lock up) but won the next election? Please read up. Thanks.

That's the good thing about living in a plural democracy. People and political parties should be entitled to their views. Sanjay Raut is from Shiv Sena - to give context to the gleeful cheerleaders here - that's the party of Bal Thackeray. If anyone within India, especially Maharashtra can get...

Much to my shame, I haven't been to most of these places except a few in Rajasthan. If you have some nice pics of Jaisalmer and its Fort, please put those up too. It seemed out of some magical folktale.
