Is China encroaching upon Indian territory in Arunachal Pradesh?

[ety]

Sir ji, the video was first actually posted by you, I don't give any weighted to such videos.
For travel vloggers, it’s normal — even I can post from the Indian side. But that’s not the point of discussion at all.
The only point is that all three governments have sold their own perspectives to their people over the years, and people naturally follow the narratives promoted by their respective governments.
So blaming one side or another is ultimately just blame-shifting. The real issue is the narratives that have been built and followed for decades.
Given the situation we have today, there is only one practical solution: accept the current borders as the actual international borders.

But realistically, no government is willing to do that because they have sold too many narratives and claims to their own people over the years. It would be extremely difficult for any government to suddenly accept the present reality.

So the easiest option for governments is to maintain the status quo and keep beating the dead horse by repeating the same narratives: “We will get those lands back one day.”

In the end, it keeps old dreams alive while allowing governments to avoid confronting the reality of the current situation.

You can definitely say that of your gov as we all know. But to say that's all the same for China is bit overstretched.

Who met with the ruler of J&K in Oct 1947 to convince him to sign the IoA in favour of India?

Quite a lot of people met him to convince him to join India. Gandhi met him right before the Communal violence began. V P Menon met him RSS leaders met him. You're zooming in to one such meeting your usual template.

There were even assassinations before the year 1910 attributed to fanatical followers of Savarkar.

Of the British abbu? I hear he was send to jail for getting involved in an assassination conspiracy of some British magistrate along with being revolutionary.

I think you are mistaking the pdf forum goers for some naive white skinned crowd who are easily guilt-tripped into blind acquiescence regarding Indian perpetual victimhood.

I'm in the right place lol! Making shit up, being too invested in our politics and yet get the basics wrong.

Again, not asking who was assassinated or who wasn't. Nor am I stating others did not meet with Hari Singh - naturally, Congress' hands are as dirty as anyone else's in your godforsaken qom.

I responded to this bizarre assertion of yours that Hindutva influence is some novel feat of engineering applicable only from the 80s and 90s onwards.

So you're just commenting for the sake of it??? What was all that Hindutva blah blah blah as if Hindutva is responsible for Kashmir problem or most of Indian subcontinent problems? They are a very recent phenomenon, less than two decades old of being in absolute power.

I responded to this bizarre assertion of yours that Hindutva influence is some novel feat of engineering applicable only from the 80s and 90s onwards.

It is infact a political force of the 80's and 90's. Successful partly in the 90's and really successful as in Congress level successful only since 2014. Basically Hindutva is where congress was in 50's and 60's. It is yet to reach the peak 70's congress that split Pakistan. You have zero idea on Indian political discourse, especially you have no idea how politically irrelevant Hindutva were until they weren't.

It's nuts how scared the Indian government and military seem to be of criticising China.

When it comes to Pakistan, they're always quick to beat their chests like chimpanzees—making all sorts of threats, launching false operations, indulging in jingoism and whatnot.

But China continues with its alleged salami-slicing policy, and there is virtually no reaction from India's Hindu extremist government.
