@SlimJim3082 if you are questioning the legitimacy of India's election, its robustness and efficiency, you are welcome to visit India and verify it personally. A fundamental game theory between the various demographics are manifest in the robust election. There is no lack of robustness of democratic process, and now increasingly due to widespread internet, there is no lack of free communication between different demographics. The discerning nature of Indian democracy is further being defined by the discerning voter, who votes (to attain his maximum benefit) a party of his choice). And yet you portray the grand narrative of "democracy is detroyed". It seems rather you will simply enact the "death of democracy" act in a thousand times than acknowledge the clear statistical data and physical evidence that modern Indian politics is the ultimate manifestation of democracy in India (albeit with "Indian characteristics " like familial amd dynastic politics). Only question is how this extremely "democratic society" balance this chaos of democracy and work towards shared common goals and prosperity.

@krish4134 prc? Does china have enough people in this generation to sustain its superpower status? What about the aftermath of the one child policy? Is china willing to risk war and deal with all the consequences it entails? Do you even know the consequence of nuclear war in this region, that too with the recent abundance of natural calamities throughout the world? A conventional war in the himalayas will however not bode very well for both sides. The odds are not in the chinese favour due to the nature of the terrain, logistical problems, etc. while the Indian army is willing to apply equal pressure to the chinese and call the chinese bluff. The very act of sustaining sea level dwelling mainland chinese soldiers in high altitude regions of tibet is challenging now for the chinese pla, that i doubt they will fare well in a conventional war. China hopes to wear out the India at one more point, opening another front in ladakh and arunachal pradesh. Unfortunately this effort merely empowers the current regime at finding defense solutions at a much more random pace, as well as take more drastic measures. Also china is now facing security threat from pakistan and afghanistan, dealing with a corrupt pakistani regime and difficulties in the CPEC projects due to the instabilities in the region and global pressure on the uyghur problem in xinjiang. As for south china sea, that dispute seems to be not in china's favour, but more importantly china doesnt seem to desire an amicable or mutually beneficial solution, but rather seems to pick fights merely as a engine for creating nationalism. India has always wanted to befriend the chinese people, but the circumstances have led to a multipolar world where a great balancing act is required by a great many countries including India. China attacking India will unfortunately be more harmful than helpful to china's grand strategy against the usa.
