“Good
fences make good neighbors “ it is a proverb means that it is better for people
to mind their own business and to respect privacy of others. This well known
saying applicable to every field of our life whether it is our family or our
office or our Nation .Interference with others matter always ushered to a
conflict. Every one of us like our privacy and don’t want that anyone
interference in our personal matter. Now coming to problems, why we need
fences? Off-course that is a psychological question, but I are not interested
in that. Since the dawn of human civilization , people felt fundamental need to
divide the world into territorial areas. In last century, hundred thousands of
people died in ethnically violent clashes due to Territorial dispute. A
Territorial dispute is disagreement of possession or control of land between
two or more states. There are many countries in world which are indulging in
some kind of territorial disputes. this list of disputes is to large so we can’t
explain each and everyone but let try to understand some majors disputes in
briefly.
India
has territorial disputes with Pakistan, China, and Bangladesh. India had fought
many war with these country on the matters of territorial possession. Recent,
Kargil war between India and Pakistan was a good example. The cause of war was
infiltration of Pakistan soldiers and Kashmiri militants into positions of
Indian side of LOC, which served as de facto border between these two nation.
Finally The Indian Army with the help of Indian Air force, recaptured the
majority of Indian territory occupied by Pakistani militants. But in the whole
process is there any gain for any country whether it is India or Pakistan but
of course they looses live of many soldiers. They are fighting for Kargil
sector, which is Iceland not suitable for habitation. There are many other
cases also like Gaza strip dispute between Israeli and Palestinian , Arunachal
Pradesh disagreements between India and China , territorial disputes in south
china sea between China and Vietnam , etc.
This
disagreement or disputes affect not only political, social and cultural
conditions of these countries but also global economy. Recently, in news we
heard about the dispute over East China Sea islands , called the Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China, is such an
emotionally charged issue in China that it has sparked widespread anti-Japanese
riots across the country and a boycotting of Japanese products there. This will adversely affected some of companies like Toyota Motors
whose sales depend on China to a considerable extent fall down gradually. Apart
from these territorial disagreements also affect economic life of people of
territory because extra cost burden of these conflict bear by people only. If
government more indulge in these kind of conflicts it levy more tax to fulfill
extra burden created due to these conflicts.
Now finally we conclude that wheather
it is a individual life or a nation it is better to keep visible and acceptable
fences between them because it not only make life peaceful but also help to
grow economically, politically and socially.
