HOW TO RESOLVE INDIA - PAKISTAN DISPUTES



The economy of Pakistan faces significant challenges. According to the assessment by the World Bank, the real GDP growth is to reach 2.6% in FY25. GDP per capita rank in 2024 was 160 (nominal) and 140 (ppp).

The prices (in PKR ) of certain food items are given below.

Flour - 800 per kg
Roti - 25 each
Milk - 150 per litre 
Rice - 3700 to 6050 per 40 kg
Sugar - 185 per kg 
Cooking oil (Mezan) - 610 per litre 
White bread - 147 per 1 lb

In fact the present situation is brought by the government and the people together. The money collected from various sources should have been used for the day today need, comfort and upliftment of the people. Instead of doing those they have spent the money for procuring war weapons. 

Defence budget of Pakistan
(in billion USD)
2019 - 10.40
2020 - 10.41
2021 - 11.84
2022 - 10.34
2023 - 30.30
2024 - 10.17
2025-26 - 6.85 lakhs rupees 

All said and done, now let us look at what can be practically done for the people. Here is a suggestion. The government as well as the people may look at it and evaluate the pros and cons and then discuss with the Government of India. The following are the key points.

The people and the government try to understand the fact that India is not an enemy of Pakistan. India will never come by its own to have a war with Pakistan. If you don't attack, India will not do anything by its own against Pakistan.

India can take care of the safety and security of Pakistan. You may have to disperse the entire existing defence establishments; the Army, Airforce and the Navy.

You may deposit all your arms and ammunition including all nuclear arsenal and all war related equipments with India. If you want to sell these to us, India may buy these from you.

You can discuss with our government in detail about all that you want us to do for the people in education, agriculture, industry, welfare of the people etc.

The existing dispute between Pakistan and Balochistan may be settled in the presence of India.

Above all you may withdraw all your claims towards the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.

If this is agreeable, Pakistan may have immediate discussion with the Government of India. 

If both countries are entered into an agreement based on the above proposal, Pakistan may have safety and security, development of the country and welfare and peaceful living of the people of Pakistan.

CHURCH WITHOUT CHRIST

Image
What is happening in Syro Malabar Church is beyond imagination. It has become a Church without Christ. On the one side the Theological Leadership has become like army commandants and the so called believers community have become like armed revolutionists. In fact both do not know what they want to achieve. If it is aimed at any particular observation, one should very well know that Lord Jesus Christ has never taught even a prayer to the common man. The Lord said, "... when you pray, enter into your room, and having shut the door, pray to your Father in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret will repay you." (Mathew 6:6) When this is the way the Lord asked us to pray, the priesthood have got printed ship loads of prayers and circulated among the innocent faithful people. All the observances of today too have nothing to do with Jesus. The entire teaching of our Lord can be brought to a nutshell: "You shall love the Lord your God from all your heart, and wi...

CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION

Image
(Bethlehem, Palestine - Where the silver star is found, is the exact place Jesus Christ was born) The   records suggest that the Christmas was first celebrated on 25 December 336 CE by the Catholic Church in Rome. However there are much to say that Christmas was celebrated even before that. Now it is the USA is the country where Christmas is most widely celebrated in the world. Other most celebrated countries are Finland, Ireland, Norway and Japan. While Japan is a Shinto and Buddhist country they celebrate Xmas with stars, decorated trees, wide variety of food etc. In Finland there are Santa Claus village, Santa park and Santa work shops. Senegal being a Muslim majority country, Xmas is a public holiday and almost entire population celebrate Christmas. The Christmas tree of today was originated in Central Europe and Baltic states during the Renaissance. In Germany during the 16th century Christians brought decorated trees to their houses in memory of Christ's brig...

HOW IS THE REAL KERALA PEOPLE?

Image
This  is not being written with the help of any approved statistics but from quite extensive experience. I have widely travelled in India and mingled with people from different regions. The people of Kerala are gifted with a super status in literacy. I don't think it is a great achievement. If all the Indian states have the literacy standard of LKG, Kerala is at UKG. That much is the difference. Kerala is nowhere near the advanced countries of the world There is no society in the world who prevent their own economic development, but Keralites are the one. During the past decades hundreds of industrialists came here with many proposals to start industries here but the people turned them away. A large group of South Korean industrialists came here with large novel proposal of household industries. They made this proposal considering two things; a) educated and skilled man power, b) scarcity of land. Though there was large scope for this the state has rejected it outright....
