A peep in past- Indo China war!

Indo-China war was a terrible war. India lost Bhutan and a part of Ladakh valley. India lost the war. The problem is not yet solved.

Excellent and very informative article ! I feel that the war had its positive affect in that India at least began to concentrate on building up its military power and increased its defence budget...

The war was unique one. The war was on two fronts- Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh. China advanced in both regions and unilaterally withdrew. Some in India believed that china being a socialist state cannot be aggressor. So, they could not reconcile to china's aggressive role. Also reliance on international treaty like panchsheel proved meaningless. The greatest lesson from war is that eternal vigilance is must for national defence.

Bhutan is no wherein picture. The Chinese occupation of Tibet was prior to Indo Chinese war. Nehru had supported Chinese claim to Tibet. India regards Tibet as part of china. The 1962 war was regarding some part of Ladakh and NEFA (Arunachal Pradesh).
