Why is India hated by all its neighbours

India has some serious problems with it’s neighbours due to which they are rightfully wary of India. India has had problems with Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar and China, at some point of time in it’s history. Now, there exist at least some elements in all these countries that are vehemently biased against India. There are some policies of India which created this image.

India’s forward policy at the eve of independence created problems with China. While Pakistan amicably handled it’s border disputes with China by mutual agreement and respect, India tried forcing it’s way on China and occupied tracts of lands which were China's territory in actuality.

India also supported the Dalai Lama and with help from foreign intelligence agencies, bankrolled an insurgency in the Tibet region. It also housed the rebels from that area and provided them with training, supplies and other support. Although China came to India as an equal, India tried to dominate it and hence had to deal with a China wary of India’s designs.

India also supported the LTTE insurgents in Sri Lanka and created problems inside Sri Lanka. India provided them with safe havens, training and monetary support. Nobody likes interference in their own affairs and same is the case with Sri Lanka.

Although India later tried to undo it by sending IPKF to "help" quell the insurgency, but it was too little and too late to change the hearts of Sri Lankans. It was something created by India in the first place. Some incidents against the Sri Lankan civilians who were allegedly attacked by the Indian forces have not helped either.

Nepal has been mostly friendly to India, but lately some anti-India sentiment is brewing there as well. It started with 2015 Madheshi crisis when the Madheshis, Janjatis and Tharus claimed that they had been marginalized in Nepal’s new constitution. As these were basically Indian immigrants to Nepal, India supported them by blockading supplies to Nepal. At a time when the fuel prices were the lowest in the world in a decade, Nepal saw extremely high fuel prices due to this blockade. This, along with some longstanding border disputes have created a major rift in the two nations.

With Pakistan, it started with partition. While Pakistan believed in peaceful co-existence, some elements in India were sour over the partition and wanted Pakistan to come back begging to them. These elements sowed the seed of hatred between the two countries from the start. India sabotaged the shipments of Pakistan’s share of equipment and documents. India has, to date, not provided Pakistan with Pakistan’s due share of foreign reserves. And then came the Kashmir issue. India occupied Junagadh, which had acceded to Pakistan, and Deccan, which was neutral till then. But it opposed the Pakistani people’s support of Kashmiris in their fight against the Maharaja. India also tried to control the rivers going to Pakistan and convert the fertile soils of Pakistan into barren deserts. Later on, India intervened in Pakistan’s internal matters and dismembered Pakistan in ‘71. India went nuclear in ’74 and started a nuclear arms race in South Asia followed by capturing of Siachen glacier in Pakistan’s side of LOC. It has also performed terrorist operations inside Pakistan through RAW’s counter-intelligence teams X and Y.

Recently, Pakistan arrested Kulbushan Jhadav, an on-duty Indian Naval Officer who confessed being a part of a giant Indian terrorist network carrying out organized terror attacks and suicide bombings across Pakistan and Afghanistan. Kulbhushan also confessed that this network was operating in several countries across South Asia and other parts of the world. India and Pakistan have fought several wars and have been busy in a proxy war since acquiring the nuclear arms.

Myanmar has historically had a negative impression of the Indians. This is mainly because Indians in significant numbers shifted to Myanmar as part of British administration. This, coupled with the fact that India blames the insurgency in its North-East to be supported by the Burmese nation, has led to a sour relationship between the two countries. India also recently carried out an alleged hot-pursuit operation inside Myanmar which further strained the relations.

Overall, majority of the problems are due to India supporting insurgent elements in the neighbouring countries and interfering in their internal affairs, which paints India in a bad picture in the eyes of its neighbours. The sick mentality of "Akhand Bharat" which is nothing short of serious madness is still being pumped by a hardliner Hindu elite group in India which, till date, continues to publish entire India on the "wrong pages" of modern history.

Burma’s Leader Admits Deadly Attacks on Muslims

Photograph: Human Rights Watch Burma's president has admitted an unprecedented wave of ethnic violence has targeted his country's Rohingya Muslim population, destroying whole villages and large parts of towns.

Thein Sein's acknowledgement follows the release of satellite images showing the severe scale of the destruction in one coastal town, where most – if not all – of the Muslim population appears to have been displaced and their homes destroyed. The pictures, acquired by Human Rights Watchshow destruction to the coastal town of Kyaukpyu in the country's west. They reveal an area of destruction 35 acres in size in which some 811 buildings and boats have been destroyed.

The images confirm reports of an orgy of destruction in the town which occurred in a 24-hour period in the middle of last week after violence in the province broke out again on 21 October. The attacks in Arakan province in the country's west – also known as Rakhine – appears to have been part of a wave of communal violence pitting Arakan Buddhists against Muslims that has hit five separate towns and displaced thousands of people.

"There have been incidents of whole villages and parts of the towns being burned down in Arakan state," Thein Sein's spokesman said. A government spokesman put the death toll up until Friday at 112. But within hours state media revised it to 67 killed from 21-25 October, with 95 wounded and nearly 3,000 houses destroyed. The president's comments followed a warning from the office of the UN secretary general, Ban Ki-moon, that ethnic violence was endangering political progress in Burma.

"The vigilante attacks, targeted threats and extremist rhetoric must be stopped. If this is not done … the reform and opening-up process being currently pursued by the government is likely to be jeopardised," the statement said. The Burmese government is struggling to contain ethnic and religious tensions suppressed during nearly half a century of military rule that ended last year. Inter-ethnic violence broke out earlier this year, triggered by the rape and murder of a Buddhist woman by three Muslim men.

Releasing the satellite images, Human Rights Watch said it had identified 633 buildings and 178 houseboats and floating barges which were destroyed in an area occupied predominantly by Rohingya. A committee of MPs led by the Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi called on Friday for security reinforcements and swift legal action against those behind the killings and destruction. According to Reuters, dozens of boats full of Rohingyas with no food or water fled Kyaukpyu, an industrial zone important to China, and other recent hotspots and were seeking access on Friday to overcrowded refugee camps around the state capital, Sittwe.

Some 3,000 Rohingya were reported to have been blocked from reaching Sittwe by government forces and landed on a nearby island. "These latest incidents between Muslim Rohingyas and Buddhists demonstrate how urgent it is that the authorities intervene to protect everyone, and break the cycle of discrimination and violence," Amnesty International's Asia-Pacific deputy director, Isabelle Arradon, said.

The latest violence erupted as a Burmese website in Norway – the Democratic Voice of Burma – reported it had acquired a document by a group calling itself the All-Arakanese Monks' Solidarity Conference. calling for all Rohingya to be expelled from the country. "Burma's government urgently needs to provide security for the Rohingya in Arakan state, who are under vicious attack," said Phil Robertson, deputy Asia director at Human Rights Watch. "Unless the authorities also start addressing the root causes of the violence, it is only likely to get worse."

Human Rights Watch fears the death toll is far higher, based on allegations from witnesses fleeing scenes of carnage and the government's well-documented history of underestimating figures that might lead to criticism of the state. The Rohingya are officially stateless. Buddhist-majority Burma's government regards the estimated 800,000 of them in the country as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh, and not as one of the country's 135 official ethnic groups, and denies them citizenship. But many of those expelled from Kyaukpyu are not Rohingya but Muslims from the officially recognised Kaman minority, said Chris Lewa, director of the Rohingya advocacy group, Arakan Project.

"It's not just anti-Rohingya violence anymore, it's anti-Muslim," she said. It was unclear what set off the latest arson and killing on Sunday.
