India and Balochistan

Letter December 11, 2010
I am an Indian and I cannot imagine any country not taking advantage of a situation like Balochistan.

COIMBATORE, INDIA: I write with reference to your report of November 26 that quoted General Pervez Musharraf as saying that “India is responsible for Balochistan’s unrest”.

I am an Indian and I cannot imagine any country not taking advantage of a situation like Balochistan. When Pakistan with it’s ‘strategic assets’ can try and bleed India dry, so to speak, I don’t see why India should just sit and watch.

India should make it clear to Pakistan that it should stop its adventures in India or else face the same thing on its soil.
