India's North-West

A comment from someone in office grabbed my attention.
"The NW area of India, Baluchistan, Afghanistan etc. has always been a source of trouble for her."

Think of it ... how very true. Right from the extremists in modern times, to raiders like babar, ghazni, ghauri and abdali, going right back to shakuni in mahabharat, who was from Kandhar and primarily responsible for the mahabharata war.

Is it India's fate till eternity?
