Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory has long been an Indian political tradition. Here are just a few examples:
1948: India takes the Jammu and Kashmir issues to the UN and then agrees to a ceasefire when the Indian Army is marching toward victory.
1954: Without any quid pro quo, India surrenders its extraterritorial rights in Tibet and recognizes the "Tibet Region of China."
1960: India signs a treaty benignly reserving over four-fifths of the Indus Basin waters for its downstream foe, Pakistan.
1966: India returns to Pakistan, which launched the 1965 war, the highly strategic Haji Pir, which subsequently becomes a launchpad for Pakistan to infiltrate terrorists into India.
1972: At Shimla, India gives away its war gains at the negotiating table without securing anything in return from Pakistan.
2021: After China's 2020 stealth encroachments on key borderlands of Ladakh, India vacates the strategic Kailash Heights, forfeiting its only bargaining chip in negotiations, and then agrees to Chinese-designed "buffer zones" in some Ladakh areas.
2025: To put an end to Pakistan's four-decade-long "war of a thousand cuts" through terrorist proxies, India launches "Operation Sindoor," only to halt it three days later without achieving any clear objective.
#WATCH | Jammu and Kashmir: A program was organized to celebrate the Shiv Jayanti at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Statue in Kupwara, on the India-Pakistan Line of Control.
The soldiers paid their respect to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj amidst snowfall and white ground all around in the vicinity with temperature with the level of mercury under 0 degrees.
