BANGLA DESHI INFILTRATION AND IMPACT ON NATIONAL SECURITY

BANGLA DESHI INFILTRATION AND IMPACT ON NATIONAL SECURITY

A hot debate ensues on NARENDER MODI chiding MAMTA BANNERJEE to stop BANGLA DESHI INFILTRATION, if she thinks she was a "Real Bengal Tiger". This was in response to her jibe in which she had called him a "paper tiger". The contours of the debate are a poor reflection of the understanding of national security issue by the debaters. A deliberate attempt is being made to turn this security issue into a social problem.

Unfortunately, the issue of illegal entry and infiltration from Bangla Desh has been made to look "HINDU MUSLIM" issue by Indian politicians. Muslim politicians and media have twisted the whole issue just to serve their vested interests. Instead of reviewing this infiltration as a serious threat to national security, it has become an issue of sympathy for the infiltrators. I am aghast at the way the whole issue is being swept under the carpet.

Continued infiltration from Bangla Desh is a deliberate exercise planned and executed by ISI of Pakistan, as an OUTSOURCED WAR on India by China. The objective of Sino- Pak strategy on India is to make it explode internally. It has been employing two- fold tactics:-

(a) Change demographic structure of North East and West Bengal with a definite purpose of creating conditions of secession on religious and ethnic lines.

(b) Initiate, coordinate and support Maoists / Naxalite insurgency; North East militancy and a proxy war in J&K with a view to break up India into micro dots on the world map.

The attention of the reader is invited to an article in GLOBAL TIMES, a Chinese government online Magazine, who in 2009, had recommended to break up India into 20-30 states. It was later withdrawn. But the fact remains, the objective of China remains the same. It has been cultivating Pakistan , purely with this motive, even after it was known that Jihadis, trained in Pakistan, have been spearheading the militancy in Sinkiang region of China, where Uighar Muslims are up in arms against China. Therefore, China is looking forward to a bigger dividend by ignoring activities of Pakistani Jihadis and remove India as a potential rival in the future geo-strategic environments of the region.

China's STRING OF PEARLS policy around coastal region of India, spreading from Siri in Myanamar, through Hambantota of SriLanka to warm water port at Gwador in Pakistan, is a clear indication of containment of India and reduce Indian influence outside its borders. China has been testing Indian leadership by provocative intrusion in Leh. Even now, during Indian elections to Parliament, there are reports of Chinese intrusion in Leh. It is a known principle that peace and friendship with neighbors today flow through the barrel of demonstrable military strength. Poor responses of leadership to such situations not only affect military morale but also reduce military's capability to respond effectively. Weak and vacillating nations are often a spectacle of international ridicule.

Continued infiltration of Bangla Deshis must be seen as a serious threat to national security. Bangladeshi Muslims are being deliberately encouraged to migrate to India. Purpose of the migrations is to not only to change demographic profile of the North East but also to boost the insurgency in region. The rants by leaders like Mamta Bannerjee ought to be condemned with this thought in mind. It must not be allowed to become an emotional issue, nor it must be allowed to be seen as a move against the Muslims.

It is because of National security, badly neglected hither to for last ten years, that India needs a strong central government. India must avoid the conglomeration of regional satraps with 'state-specific agendas', mixed with personal motives of the leaders. Coalition governments are anti - thesis of national security. It could be NARENDER MODI or anybody else with a strong presence in the parliament, which prevents horse trading. As too many cooks spoil the broth so does coalition of parties, which leads to weak governments, resulting into policy paralysis and bankruptcy of performance.

Strong government would focus on national Security and prevent leg pulling by the allies. Policy paralysis of the government would end. Decision making would be streamlined. Bullying by neighbors would be effectively responded.

Threat from internal enemies would be effectively tackled. We must remind ourselves that in the world of BRAIN FORCE WARS of the 21st Century, it has become abundantly clear that absolute direct wars ( ADWs) have been replaced by WOM (War by Other Means). Such wars lay emphasis on exploitation of internal weaknesses of your opponents. Sponsored violence, militancy and insurgency are its bye- products. And India has many such cleavages, which are being exploited by SINO- PAK nexus.

ULFA movement was conceived in the womb of Foreign nationals in 1979. It still keeps simmering after 35 years. Its militant leader, Paresh Barua is in the lap of China, as stated by Media. Recent violence in the BODO AREAS of Assam shows tribal resentment against infiltration. This ought to be checked for India to sustain and survive.

In view of the above, nation needs a strong central government which is not at the mercy of its partners. UPA government has shown as to how ineffective becomes the most brilliant person. Much needed Economic reforms have been lost sight of and government was only busy doing the balancing act amongst its coalition partners. Security issues like Chinese intrusion in Ladakh or Pakistani aggressive acts in Kashmir and elsewhere were met with meek responses.
