China's biggest advantage against India isn't just military power—it's geography. In this episode, Dev Goswmai and Sandeep Unnithan explore how the vast Tibetan Plateau acts as China's modern-day "Great Wall," shielding its economic heartland while placing several Indian cities within range of Chinese military assets. Why did India choose not to deploy the Air Force during the 1962 war? Was it a costly strategic mistake?
