9 Back on track India and China must address bilateral issues in a sustainable way, pursuing BRICS spirit BRICS summit- 9 th (China)- Meetings between the two leaders was particularly remarkable given that the long Doklam military stand-off was resolved just a week ago. India and China are looking for new mechanisms to strengthen border defence agreements that have held in the past. BRICS countries have together committed to an open and inclusive multilateral trading system. Another area of welcome consonance was the North Korean nuclear tests. Both the Indian and Chinese delegations at Xiamen smoothed the interactions between Mr. Modi and Mr. Xi, and allowed for a productive BRICS declaration that belied fears that bilateral tensions would overtake multilateral concerns.

10 Continue China s nod 1)- Inclusion of the Lashkar-e-Taiba and the Jaish-e-Mohammed among the terrorist groups threatening regional stability, and 2)-Its choosing not to speak of the contentious Belt and Road Initiative at the summit suggested it was heeding(स वध न रहन ) India s concerns With the BRICS meet concluded, it is doubly important that Indian and Chinese officials reengage in a sustained manner to address all areas of discord which led to the charged situation at Doklam. Solve- Counterclaims over 1)-The Sikkim boundary and 2)-The India-China Bhutan tri-junction to the agenda for discussions.

11 Continue It is necessary to see that the much-acclaimed BRICS language on terrorist groups like the LeT and JeM is translated into actionable points as a show of good faith. Beijing will have an early opportunity to do so in October when the issue of designating JeM chief Masood Azhar as a global terrorist comes up at the UN Security Council UN s Financial Action Task Force takes stock of Pakistan s actions against the LeT. It is imperative that the gains of the BRICS summit in terms of the India-China bilateral atmospherics are optimised.

13 Staring down censorship Last month, the China Quarterly (CQ)- most reputed journal of the China studies in the world, published by the Cambridge University Press (CUP), was asked by the Chinese government to block hundreds of articles in China. CQ has over six decades built a reputation for upholding the highest standards of research on China, with de fining conversations on Chinese politics, economy and society. The censorship was sought with retrospective effect going back to the first issue in Most of the articles were on Tibet, the Cultural Revolution, Tiananmen Square protests, Taiwan independence, Falun Gong, Xinjiang, democracy and human rights It is common practice that foreign scholars excise sensitive information from their work published in Chinese on the mainland. This protects Chinese citizens associated with a particular piece of research and also guards against the possibility of visa denials for subsequent visits by scholars.

14 Continue Internet sovereignty Monitoring regime online To deal with this challenge, China is now trying to control the global conversation on Internet China s articulation of Internet sovereignty is to territorialise cyberspace giving national governments greater control over access and content. Internet as global space built of and building communities over and above territorial borders. Chinese universities and research institutes have always functioned under tight political boundaries. Evidently, it is the university and not the market that will produce a resistance to oppression and stand by what is worthy of a fight for all peoples. Precisely why nationalistic regimes the world over today are trying to turn universities into uncritical factories to churn out loyal foot soldiers of the state.
