Begin with imagination.. . . . ..

Map-less Solution


Neither side is willing to budge an inch from their original stances that in the first place resulted in the friction, ensuring that the potential for conflict remains high. In the present deadlock, both sides see a win by either side as a loss of the other. Nothing can be more dangerous than this. The challenge then is to find a situation where eachís vision and aspiration is not a threat to the other: A ìGame Theoryî situation in which any two or more contesting parties can end up winners simultaneously and in complementary ways.

Hmmmm. . . What kind of a future does India want to create for itself in their game?


And how might they remove the friction?


Again, begin with imagination.. . . . . . .
