Biggest Political Mistake in Indian History
It all happened just before the Indian Independence Day and it happened so fast that no body could even think the aftermaths of the event would be so disastrous that the whole world would laugh at a nation which was divided into 2 by some lazy people who never thought that things could be worked out. Yes I am talking about the Partition of India and Pakistan.
Today is the Independence Day and I want to give you a reason to think. I have a question for you guys.
Do you think Jawahar Lal Nehru did the right thing by agreeing to Muhammad Ali Jinnah ?
Before you come to any conclusions, I just want to let you know that I am just asking for your opinion. I have put across my thoughts, now I need to know what you think. Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru when agreed to Muhammad Ali Jinnah would have thought that now India would live happily ever after. But I guess they were wrong, I mean they have been wrong all throughout. Pakistan has gone so far sometimes after the division that its unbearable, but still we Indians believe in Peace. We still believe in talks with our neighbor countries. We still believe that “Kutte ki poonch Seedhi ho jayegi”. We still think that now we will live without any fear since our Prime Minister is a bit aggressive now. What the hell ?
My only point is that its our politicians who have been giving us pain all through out . Had Jawahar Lal Nehru not agreed to Muhammad, we would have had a single country spanning a long Kashmir having the most amazing tourist place ever. Imagine Afridi and Sehwag opening for India. No power would have stopped that India to win against any country. What a scene would that be. Imagine the biggest tourist place in the world for its beautiful mountains, a place known to be heaven on earth. We could have been so advanced today that the whole world would have envied us.
But let’s face the reality. Since both the countries are not in good terms and are always fighting, we spend over billions on getting the most latest and deadliest weapons from Israel and Russia. Just imagine 3-4% of GDP of India and Pakistan going into preparing for battle against each other. Imagine this money spent for good cause, for betterment of both countries. None of the countries people have proper food to eat, but we want to fight. The whole world looks at us as a country of poor, which some time ago used to be the “Golden Bird.” Had we spent those billions for improving our infrastructure then what a country India would have been. People would have lead a life which they deserve rather than leading their lives in fear of getting blasted in some suicide bombing.
I really feel that our life was fcuked on that day when India and Pakistan parted their ways. Just wait for some time, its quite possible that India will get partitioned further because we have the same Congress in center which made all this possible. Rumors are that China is thinking of creating a mess in India and trying to divide India into several parts.
What do you say ?

I agree Kuldeep, that partition was the biggest mistake done by our politicians, however when a country is getting ruled by someone else and you are striving hard since 1857 with no success. I think at that point of time it was the wise decision taken by them to get independence. No one has thought what would be its impact in the future. Sitting today and discussing this always make me wish that it would have been exponentially better if the after two years of independence the politicians from both countries could have joined their hands and said that we will merge again for good.
What say??????
well !! yeah thts a mistake …….. but truly now i dnt think any point discussing it…. ’cause now there’s so much hatred on both side that they won’t reunite ever….so we should do wht we do in our lives ..just move on …..but yeah with tym .. this hatred will be lessened ( at least we can hope so)…
I believe what could not be achieved in 60 years, will never be achieved. But I never lose hope. I still feel that one day India will wake up and would not want to bear the pain of losing the lives of their citizens and we would ultimately do something about it. I feel one day we would get in to another war and this time either it will be this side or that side.
