Hi All,
It has been 10 years since the Kargil war (skirmish?). So I thought it would be nice to have a post to commemorate the 10 yrs and pay our respects to the men and women who laid down their lives to protect the territorial integrity of India.
To those martyrs who laid down their lives and their bereaving families, no amount of consoling words will be sufficient and no amount of financial compensation will be enough. Loss of live will always be hard to reconcile and we all sincerely hope that those families, in the past decade, have reached closure.
It has been 10 years and it is time to move forward, both for the individuals and the country as whole. We have to learn our lessons from the past and not commit them again. Even a slight lapse of vigil might be enough motive for intruders to attempt Kargil2.
That said and done, i strongly believe that dialogue is the way forward for resolution of any conflict, ours in no exception. Too many lives have been lost and too much money, time and energy have been expended on fighting. We should engage in military conflict only if it thrust upon us (like Kargil). Continuous engagement of neighbours, to resolve disputes, through composite dialogues will help rather than contemplating military solutions for them.
What are your thoughts on this....
