Its Pakistan Rangers vs Indian Border Security Force 24\/7.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s bloated egos, unreal amounts of testosterone and just one long game of staring at each other (as could befit two rivals in the region).

Just a few days back, a Retired Air Marshal of Indian Airforce tweeted this video about the Indian side&#8217;s response on their Republic Day:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Wagah border display on Republic Day.
