China has warned India to stop oil-exploration in the South China Sea,calling it a disputed region. India has been carrying out oil exploration project in the Vietnamese bloc which has huge oil and gas reserves, for commercial interests.
While the Chinese consider the exploration area as disputed and do not want India to take any commercial interest in the same , they themselves are carrying out infrastructural projects in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir(the disputed land between India and Pakistan).
Undoubtedly, the growing rift between India and China, the two super-powers of Asia, is a cause of concern where India and China have disputes over Indo-China border issues and Chinese claiming Indian support to Tibetan seperatists.Both India and China have been doing their share of preparations in the border areas(being ready for any minor conflict), in the recent past.Although,China is more powerful than India in terms of military strength and technology and the growing friendship of China and Pakistan is also a reason of concern for India, it would be too unlikely that any of the countries would like to get into a war. But the question is how long will China try to dictate its terms to India and India would answer back diplomatically? Is it not time, China be told to mind its own business? While India never questions their intimacy with Pakistan and their infrastructural investments in POK, why should they warn India on Chinese disputed lands ?
