As for lapse in diplomacy, policy errors,
Corona pressure and for some loose talks,
Made by the establishments military and civilian
And had it been dealt with by the leadership
In China and India,
It could have been averted the stand-off, the face-off,
The tussle, tension near the Ladakh border
De-escalating, defusing it
But it happened otherwise
Claiming the lives of common Chinese and Indian soldiers
Which but I can never approve of
Be it the erring communists, firebrand leaders
Or the blind patriots and nationalists blundering.
