lol, mandarin written in traditional chinese (not simplified), however names of people are in pinyin??
The rules of engagement on the LAC are different than on the LoC in Kashmir, but the personnel in the Indian military have the same mindset that aggression and casualties are natural and par for the course.
I've pondered about this strategy too (just for fun lolz.) This is actually a very powerful idea, pure Sun Tzu and 'indirect methods.'
There can be a list of 20 businessmen, in a few mercantile provinces, which together would account for a significant chunk of India's GDP, in the most advanced sectors of its economy. Keep in mind, these rich provinces are already anti-Modi (e.g. Mahashastra.) Their loyalties have always been more local, rather than federal. They are not much concerned with Northern India's jingoistic attitude (they don't even speak the same language as Bollywood media.) The central government in Dehli is actually an obstacle for their development due to its notorious inefficiency. It should be possible to covertly entice these key players with $$$ and trade deals for their businesses, to influence their provincial politicians to adopt an 'independent' path from the federal government. After all, these provinces used to be independent kingdoms. There is no historical precedent of a unified Indian state, except when it was forced to be united by a conquering force.

Indian's think that China is not thirsty for war. It's all over there news. I wish I was born in China just to fight there.
Li Kenong the general of the 8th route army in WW2?
And who was the Indian soldier who killed him? Mahatma Gandhi? North Korea types out more believable propaganda than Indian state media these days.
From your posts around here I gather that you're concerned about a war breaking out between India and China. Don't be. Narendra Modi is nothing but a gerbil, he's a little rodent who'll run at the first sign of real danger. He's real tough when he's bulling Indian Muslims and Kashmiris, but he'll run like the rat he is the second he's confronted with real power.
