Resolution 1

STRENGTHEN BORDER SECURITY

The Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal views recent developments along Bharat-Tibet

(China occupied) border with grave concern. Several news reports, which have

subsequently been confirmed by responsible sections in our security establishment, havehighlighted relentless campaign by the expansionist China to encroach upon our territory.

These reports confirm that there were 270 Line of Control violations and 2,285 instances

of aggressive border patrolling by the People's Liberation Army of China last year

alone. It is a sad commentary on our political dispensation that instead of cautioning the

countrymen over the evil designs of our adversary there were efforts to gag the voices ofcaution by trying to take action against the media and blatantly trying to underplay the

looming danger. It is disheartening and demoralising to see our leaders making defeatist

statements about our preparedness against the Chinese aggressive maneuvers.

It is unfortunate that our response to the bullying tactics of the countries around us has

always been lackluster. Except for the historic decision of providing asylum toHH the Dalai Lama our handling of the Tibetan question has all along been a series of

blunders ending up in practically endorsing Chinese annexation of that sovereign and

independent country. China went on to occupy Aksai Chin region of Ladakh in the 50s.

The Chinese designs for further annexation of our territory have resulted in humiliating

compromises from our side on Sumdorong Chu Valley in 1987. Emboldened by our

timidity the Chinese have now started making claims over entire Arunachal Pradesh.

The ABKM views Bharats response to these acts of aggression grossly inadequate andcalls upon the Government to take immediate steps to strengthen our borders on

Bharat-Tibet side as well as other borders like the maritime border, Bharat-Pak and

Bharat-Bangladesh border. It is necessary to enhance the response capability of our

forces on the Bharat-Tibet border in the face of the huge military build up andinfrastructure building by China on the other side.

The Chinese have deployed three Es Engagement, Encirclement and Encouragement of

our enemies as their tactical weapons to harass Bharat. They have developed

Coco Islands Listening Post in South Myanmar into a full-fledged military base. They are

building a commercial port in Sri Lanka while the Gwadar military port in the

Sindh Province of Pakistan built by them is ready for operations. They are using

Bharat-Tibet border for military provocations while the Bharat-Myanmar border is being

used by them to support the terrorist and anti-national elements in the North-East.

They even started talking about dismemberment of Bharat.

The ABKM regrets that the pussyfooting of our Government is resulting in not only the

setbacks on territory front but also on the diplomatic front. China has succeeded in raking

up Arunachal Pradesh issue in the Asian Development Bank with a view to scuttle our

efforts to secure loans for developmental activity in that state. It unsuccessfully tried to

prevent the Nuclear Supplier Group countries from lifting sanctions against our country.

The ABKM wants to remind the Government that it must proceed in the spirit of the

14 November 1962 unanimous resolution of our Parliament in which it was categorically

stated that the territory annexed by China must be brought back. Our Government should

tell the counterparts in China that they must vacate the land annexed in the western sectorand make no claims over the remaining sectors. It should be asked to honour the

McMahon Line as Bharats international border in the same manner as it has accepted it

as the border between Myanmar and itself.

It is shocking to hear that the Chinese have been issuing paper Visas to our citizens from

Arunachal Pradesh and Kashmir. Through this provocative act they want to show that

they dont recognize Arunachal Pradesh and Kashmir as integral parts of Bharat. The

ABKM demands that the Government issue orders to the immigration authorities

forthwith banning the use of such Visas for leaving our country. Such stern steps, coupled

with aggressive diplomacy, will only yield favourable results with China.

The ABKM wants to underscore similar concerns on Bharat-Pak front also. Especially of

great shock to the nation is the joint statement of the Prime Ministers of Bharat and

Pakistan at Sharm-el-Sheik on 9 July 2009. Many experts and leaders from across the

political spectrum have pointed out the huge diplomatic goof-up in that statement by way

of the inclusion of Baluchisthan issue and our readiness to resume talks with Pakistan

in spite of it continuing to indulge in cross-border terror.

The ABKM demands that on Pakistan too our Government should follow the spirit of the

22 February 1994 unanimous resolution of our Parliament that the only outstanding issueis the return of the PoK to Bharat.

The ABKM registers its appreciation for our soldiers and officers for their valiant efforts

to secure our borders and calls upon the countrymen to be ever-vigilant to ensure that the

Government does everything possible to safeguard our territorial integrity and

self-respect.
