Modi denies Mahathir ‘right’ to fly over India.

[War Thunder]

Yes, I know that. And I also know that there does exist air-route from Mumbai, Delhi to Islamabad etc. so why the Malaysians took the longer route is what amuses me ??

They're avoiding the hot zone.
Its a routine for flights carrying valuable personnel to stay clear of a zone that can go hot any moment.

So do I. That's not even a reason.

Tell that to your local cow vigilante.

Dude, we are 1.3 billion and a vast majority of whom eat and enjoy their life, let alone beef. The so called cow vigilantes and religious fundamentalists criminals do exist, but that is just our share of filth as in any other society/country. Now please don't tell me you don't have similar twisted minds back home.

Exactly what I am saying that don't be surprised if there is 1 or 2 Malaysia haters in India and even they will not care about Modi not giving access to the plane. And if you still don't think there are some tell a cow vigilante they eat beef in Malaysia and he will hate Malaysia.

OK. OK. Whatever sails your boat.

Great going MODI JEE. In a bid to Isolating Pakistan, he is actually doing the opposite. I say let him win the election. It is good for us and the Kashmir cause.

Even if the Mahathir plane denial news is fake, it is now becoming more clear to me that Modi is not good for India. Maybe he will learn as he goes.
But my impression of him--though never charitable--has changed since I saw a very recent interview by India's former National Security Advisor Shiv Shankar Menon. According to Menon:
1) Pakistan is less isolated diplomatically than it was in 2008 (the Mumbai attack).
2) Modi has truly made the Kashmir issue much worse for India

There was much else in that interview. Mr. Menon, though anti-Pakistan, is a very smart politician. So better India be ruled by the narrow-minded jingos--for Pakistan's sake.
