Every body must have gone through the news that the tenth round of dialogue over siachen issue ended without any improvement. indians sides want pakistan to accept its two condition in writing before any progress can me made which in pakistan see as literally writing and accepting the control of india in siachen. this issue is there for last 22 years and costs about 438 million US dollar to india and 182 same to pakistan. the cost is higher for india because they have their check posts at altitude and pakistan can not afford so much to have the same. not only spending, just immagine the life of soldiers that are deployed there, they certainly have emotions for their motherland but one can immagine what happened to the family of estimated 5000 soldiers that died on both sides of siachen.
purpose of posting this topic is to know how others think and view this, also i would like to know ,how governments can be persuaded to speed up this so called composite dialogue and show some real progress, or are we still convinced and waiting for some miricle to happen in which either side gets the whole control of siachen.
