Livni is a former foreign minister and vice prime minister of Israel. Modi’s BJP in its party’s political manifesto released before the polls has explicitly called Article 35-A “an obstacle to the development of the state”. Despite this favourable geo-strategic environment the politics of both Modi and Netanyahu is devoid of peaceful coexistence and is militarised to the core. To India, a Pakistan involved in internal turmoil will not be free to support the insurgence that India faces in Kashmir. These political swamps are likely to convert into the very political marshlands and quagmires in which the politics of both the leaders is most likely to be eventually caught.
