The problem is not that of territory, language, or belief. The conflict is over the very idea of a nation. It is not easy for any country to accept the idea of two nations within one. Ukraine is not aspiring to destroy the very idea of Russia. Israel does not want to destroy the very idea of Palestine. But the rulers of India are busy destroying the very idea of India. Bharat is not possible without the death of India because these two nations have been nurtured on the basis of completely opposite ideas.
