Gen Rawat is right about escalating Chinese threat to India, so was Fernandes

After Beijing protested against the remarks made by the Chief of Defense Staff General Biping Lavat that China is India’s biggest security threat, people have a sense of deja vu. About 23 years ago, the then Secretary of Defense George Fernandez said in an interview that China poses a potential threat to India, and as a result was met with a series of protests and criticisms from China and its domestic supporters. Colonel Wu Qian, spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of National Defense, told the media on Thursday: “Indian officials have unprovoked speculations about the so-called Chinese military threat, which seriously violates the strategic guidance of the leaders of the two countries that China and India do not pose a threat to each other.

It is irresponsible to instigate geopolitical confrontation. And danger.” Although it is well known in the past that China will select speeches based on its political goals, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Defense can easily forget that General Lavat’s observations came from the PLA’s attempts to unilaterally change Donglang’s ground position in 2017 and 2017. Ladakh LAC in May 2020. The fact that India and China went to war twice is enough to confirm General Rawat’s assessment. When the Doklam incident occurred in May 2020, General Rawat was the chief of staff of the Indian Army, and when the deviant incident occurred, General Rawat was the chief of staff of the Indian Army.

When the Chinese Ministry of National Defense reminded General Lavat of the strategic guidance of the leaders of the two countries, the spokesperson inexplicably forgot that the People’s Liberation Army threw out the window the written, signed, and sealed 1993 and 1996 bilateral border agreements when trying to impose on others. . In India, the 1959 line was rejected on the Ladakh LAC. The same happened in Daulet Beg Oldi (DBO) district Depsang Bulge and Demchok’s Charding Nullah Junction (CNJ) in 2013.

The fact is that the actions taken by the Chinese People’s Liberation Army on the line of actual control after the Tibetan uprising before the 2008 Beijing Olympics can be proved by no other logic except military. Since June 2020, the People’s Liberation Army has deployed nearly 50,000 soldiers on the Ladakh line of control, equipped with missiles, tanks and rocket regiments as support. Fighters are on standby. People must be naive or weak before they can be regarded as A benign and heavily guarded posture of the Chinese army.

So far, China has not even explained why it decided to unilaterally change its location on the north shore of Pangong Co, putting the growing bilateral relationship in a deep freeze. Why did Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is also the commander-in-chief of the People’s Liberation Army, leave the time and time with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Wuhan and Chennai under the car? Why should China, with the help of the Chinese army, force Bhutan, a small Himalayan country, to open its borders and establish trade and diplomatic relations with Beijing?

Startups that use excerpts from their own pitch are sent legal notifications by Shark Tank India; the creator responds, “Kaise banega naya India?”

After getting a legal letter from Sony Pictures for copyright infringement, the subscription-based tea business Dorje Teas found itself in deep water for utilising footage from their own pitch on YouTube and Meta advertisements.

The founders of the subscription-based tea company Dorje Teas, Ishaan Kanoria and Sparsh Agarwal.

While many entrepreneurs, especially those with startups, have found transformation through the business reality TV series Shark Tank India, the narrative is slightly different for Dorje Teas, a subscription-based tea firm that ships organic and fresh-from-the-farm Darjeeling Tea to consumers throughout India. Sony Pictures Networks India slapped the firm with a legal notice, which has placed it in hot water.

Co-founder Sparsh Agarwal of the company, who brought Dorje Teas to Shark Tank India last year and raised funds of Rs 30 lakh for 15% equity from Anupam Mittal, Peyush Bansal, and Vineeta Singh, valued the business at Rs 2 crore, recently revealed on LinkedIn that they received a legal notice from Shark Tank India for utilising snippets of their own pitch.

Agarwal claims that they received a notification about copyright infringement for utilising these clips in YouTube and Meta advertisements. It appears that Sony Pictures has sent notice to other companies besides Dorje Teas. He said, “They’ve clamped down on every single startup that showed up on Shark Tank, so we’re not the only ones.”

“I don’t understand why they would do this, even though I am aware of the copyright rules that justify it. After all, Dorje Teas and several other businesses, like Skippi, Assembly, Perfora, Hoovu Fresh, Beyond Snack, Wakao Foods, Nasher Miles, and many more, invest thousands of dollars each month to enhance Shark Tank content, which helps the Shark Tank India brand get free exposure and increase brand memory,” he continued.

Agarwal went on to call it a poor business choice that some executive or lawyer at Sony had made, adding that it “goes against the entire ethos of promoting small startups.”

Additionally, the focus of Shark Tank Season 3 has been on creating a new India and assisting the startup environment in India. “How will we construct a ‘new India’ in this manner?’” he questioned in a self-recorded video.

On social media, Agarwal was met with praise, while some contended that Sony’s actions were legitimate in theory. “Dear Sparsh, you must realise that ‘You are the content’ in this situation. You play a big part in content production. You posted the material that features you on your social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and so on), but not on Sony’s. You might say that the traffic they were supposed to get was somehow redirected to them. A content strategist made the observation, “You are monetizing your social channels with the content they produce.”

“The first person to provide a sneak peek in the content industry attracts greater attention. Furthermore, it’s possible that you agreed to sign a waiver giving them perpetual rights to the footage they shot. They said, “Verify your contract or try to recall signing any electronic documents on the filming locations that make this clear.

“You are investing lakhs of dollars to promote Shark Tank, while Shark Tank is investing billions of dollars to plan and publicise the programme that features your brand.” Simply alter your viewpoint, as another poster pointed out.
