India is Pied Piper Leading Global Investment to War

Published on: August 18, 2019 11:58 PM

As we celebrate one of our very few diplomatic successes in the Security Council, the situation in Kashmir remains critical. On the other hand, the proposal of an open Security Council session on Kashmir was opposed by France and the Dominican Republic. The curfew in Kashmir enters its third week with the aggression mounting on both sides.

India is experiencing defeat one after another on the diplomatic front, which is adding to its anxiety. More false flag operations are expected in India, which might lead to a real confrontation on borders between the two nuclear-capable nations. Finally, the Kashmir issue was tabled and discussed at one of the highest international forums, but is that enough to yield any sustainable solution to the Kashmir?

The answer is hurting and alarming at the same time. Pakistan has achieved a lot on the diplomatic front, but still, we are far from reclaiming our lost geopolitical position. It can be easily witnessed that the world is mesmerised by the glitters of shining India. Like a magnet, India has attracted global direct and indirect investment. In March 2019, the foreign investment of Indian companies increased by 18 per cent and approximately reached $2.69 billion.

Furthermore, the FDI grew by six per cent to $42 bn in 2019.

Moreover, India has invested in its people and ensured labour mobility. India (1st) has the largest diaspora population in the world followed by Mexico (2nd), Russia (3rd), China (4th), Bangladesh (5th), and Pakistan (6th).

It is time the OIC countries stopped this Modi madness not for Pakistan or Kashmir, but for themselves before it’s too late

With investment in technology-related disciplines, quality of education and skill set, now more than 82 per cent of the Indian migrants work in high-technology fields in the US. Similar trends are witnessed in other parts of the world, which is why lobbying comes naturally to them, and their voices are heard.

Indian government’s short and long term priorities are already negatively influencing India’s economy. The Indian economy is showing obvious signs of a slowdown, and this is only the beginning of the nightmare the country is aiming for with its Narendra Modi, Ajit Doval and Amit Anilchandra Shah doctrine. The illusion created by shining India to close to its end, and the Modi government itself is crazily driving the world to the bitter reality.

Will the world allow Modi-led Hindutuwa ideology to design and drive their destiny? Is India reciprocating the trust bestowed in it through such investment? India is exploiting the most venerable nuclear flashpoint in the world for the satisfaction of its Hindu dominance desire. It is not only backstabbing the dream of prosperity and growth in the region but has also fallen short of exhibiting the responsibility expected from the nation, which is trusty of the global investment of such magnitude.

Showing solidarity with India will not benefit the world, particularly the OIC nations. It is time they stopped this Modi madness not for Pakistan or Kashmir, but for themselves before it’s too late.

On the other hand, Pakistan has nothing substantial to lose except dreams and hopes of prosperity not only for the country but for the whole region. War takes all that humanity has to offer from peace, economy, culture, values, stability, future, goals and people. History has shown that the size of the economy, global support and status of the countries in the world scenario have no direct impact on the war outcomes. It primarily depends on the people’s will to defend their country. India may start it as an adventure to exploit its potential as a war economy, but Pakistan is a steadfast nation, with the war-hardened army and war-immune people. India may start it in an impulse, but where it can lead only time can tell.

Can the world let Narendra Modi, Ajit Doval and Amit Anilchandra Shah doctrine reshape the world, and determine its fortune? Raising the voice for Pakistan or Kashmir may not interest many in OIC and global economic giants, but stopping this Modi madness is essential to save their investment and ensure the return promised by India. Pakistan has given sacrifices for peace. More than 70,000 innocent Pakistanis have lost their lives, but it is our strength and not our weakness. This crisis is imposed on Pakistan and people of Kashmir, and we reserve the right to defend and go to any extent. India, like Pied Piper, is leading global investment to war, and apparently France, and the Dominican Republic are willing to take that leap with India. The rest of the world has to decide.
