RELEVANCE OF CHINA POLICY TODAY

Chinese hostilities, about which Sardar Patel warned 65
years ago, are still rampant. They remind us of the need
for an 'iron man' like him. Insurgency by neighbours,
supported by China, require a Sardar Patel to counter
The two titles attached with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
are 'iron man' and 'spirit of unity'. One of the traits
common in Sri Aurobindo, Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru
and Patel is their education in London which offered them
an opportunity to understand dubious and divisive policy
of governance of the British which had the sole aim to
keep the colonies weak and ignorant.
Patel stayed in London for his higher education for just
22 months when he came to know about the 'Lotus and
Daggers' society which is a outfit by Indian
revolutionaries spearheaded by Aurobindo, Shyamji Krishna
Varma and others, which Aurobindo later activated at the
cost of his Indian Civil Service examination in 1893.
Though Patel never joined this society, as he reached
London very late, but this laid the foundation of a
fighter in him. He was not influenced by the Mahatma
initially due to his mild and liberal approach. It got
sharpened only when he met him in 1917.
I will deal here with only one act, Sardar was attached
to the vision of 'China policy against India'. The China
policy, which Nehru, out of his pro-Soviet socialistic
approach, opted and failed in 1962 -- the Indo-China war
-- continue even today, causing border disputes,
supporting terror activities by Pakistan.
Breathtaking indeed was Patel's vision and grasp of the
Chinese intentions and also the foreboding of the frauds,
China could -- as they indeed did in 1962 -- set in.
Nehru, the author of Glimpses of World History, had no
glimpses of the Chinese intention. He did not pay heed to
Patel's advice against Chinese imperialism engulfing
Tibet, the North-East, Nepal and Myanmar.
