SHOULD INDIA WAGE WAR AGAINST PAKISTAN ?

India should not wage war against Pakistan, moreover it can make bilateral relations with Pakistan to eradicate the most dreaded cancer of mankind i.e. Terrorism. Even Pakistan should cooperate India in its anti-terror strikes. We have already fought three wars with Pakistan, We have already seen enough deaths and destructions in both parts. In 1965, Tashkent declaration ended the war between India and Pakistan. In 1971, when urdu speaking muslims of western Pakistan created hatred and killed lakhs of Bengali speaking muslims of Bangladesh ( earstwhile East-Pakistan), Indira Gandhi then the Prime minister of India intervened into the matter and emancipated  Bangladesh from the felonious intent of Pakistan and established peace. In 1999, Kargil war between India snd Pakistan marked the era of new enmity by then Insurgency of infiltrators and terrorist activities grew day by day right under the nose of Pakistan government, and it didn't act. Pakistan remain silent and even supported terrorist activities till it became its frankenstein's monster. Kashmir is the bone of contention between two countries. The point is both countries should find some middle path to find out the solution of Kashmir issue. Instead of this Pakistan is fighting a proxy war through the line of control (LOC) through the militants of Kashmir valley itself.  After Uri attack where 18 Indian Army personnel were killed , Indian government had conducted successful strike across LOC and POK. Few days ago in United Nation General Assembly Nawaz Sharif ,the current prime minister of Pakistan rakes up the issue of Kashmir and said Burhan Wani symbol of 'Kashmiri Intifada' which baffled many including UN officials. We need global war against terrorism not against Pakistan. If citizens of both countries want peace , then merely for political benefit we should not jeopardize the lives of million innocents. We can make economic restitution upto certain extent but there is no restitution of collateral damages done on both sides of war. In war each side lose something irrespective of success or defeat. Steven Erikson in his book Dust of dreams has rightly remarked "In war everyone loses. This brutal truth can be seen in the eyes of every solider in every world.” War has never solved any problem. Redressal of contentions with weapons will make the situation more worse. Dreaded nuclear weapon can wipe out the mankind within jiffy. An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.

Economic processes based on information technologies entails a fusion of mind and matter of culture and economy.

Economic Activities and processes is not new neither in Indian perspective nor in World perspective, rather it has fused and interconnected more in recent decades. Although the process of fusion has started from the time of yore but it is clearly visible  in 20th century when Infromation technology came into being. Technical advancement has created more feasibility in terms of economy and trade. Now In 21st century economic transactions based of information technology do not encompass economic sphere of life only but all the aspects related to human life- to make the aspects more clear we can use 'CULTURE' for holistic understanding of the concept. In this Global world where a minor hiccup in one part of world can churn the other parts, economic changes and processes have touched many other entities which prime facie can go unnoticeable but actually it holds the potential to Re-shape the status-quo world in a quite afresh way. Globalisation in current scenario merely not remain as an economic inter-connectedness but it is also a symbol of modernity. Technological advancement has made the economical activities to flow across the borders along with the fusion of multiple cultures. These multiple cultures fuse to form  a modern society. Political aspect of technological information make the economic processes more complex and it is happening in 21st century in an unprecedented manner.  Blend of Politics, economy  and technological advancement in the Global level is touching the common lives directly.

Zillion of informations collected through technology can give a desired outcome and even that outcome can be treated as a raw material for further development this economic process indeed needs a fusion of mind- Vice-versa can also be true. Different bent of mind from different fields can develop sense of common identity and fusion of minds can spawn a different ball game altogether in both economic and cultural advancement.
