India-China dispute...

** i wanted to keep this till end cos this is the main bone of contention for us
** we had been seen as weak till 2014 for our one sided bow down to china under congress on various occasion
until 2017 dokhlam and 2020 galwan

It is time for India to revisit our past one sided agreement with china for example
1954 panchsheel agreement ,
1993 CBM( confidence building measures )
one china policy

etc etc

This is add on pic
many Chinese contracts in India have been cancelled by modi govt
like modi cancelled MFN( most favorable nation) status to Pakistan after pulawama in 2019 .
MFN was given to Pakistan one sided since 1996 while pak rejected to give India MFN status
