in the presence of President Jinping and Modi Premier
Three memorandum of understandings were signed amidst cheer
between two giant neighbors, it was a historic meeting
to strengthen bilateral ties and avoid any kind of cheating
the MoUs were between Gaundang province and Gujarat state
to establish “Sister Province” relations minus any hate
everything went fine except a minor but great goof up:
disputed territory of Aksai Chin was shown as Chinese, yup!
on the other hand, Arunachal Pradesh, which is India’s part
was shown as a disputed territory, how very smart
the same thing happened to the state of Kashmir and Jammu
which is an India/Pakistan problem, the Chinese knew
now the Modi government should commit such a blunder
while meeting his Pakistani counterpart to create wonder
to 40% of humanity, this gesture will bring peace
and in South Asian and China war will probably cease
