Expecting Naval attack by IN post a terror attack or deterring IN to impose a blockade in case of war on LoC
Sir they are conducting anti submarine excercises ,i think if time comes for IN to attack , we should target Gwadar port instead of Karachi and surprise them
Let's not forget that the house has also started collapsing around him, considering their economic conditions.
Please. 9 lakhs ....
And when the time is right?
I wish I could coax myself to acquire and start posting photographs of your posts reversing their flags and vacating from the area. PA simply has been hit hard along LC.
I do not often make such jingoistic statements, but perhaps you need to ask your leadership why across all the sectors from Poonch to Machchal, has Pakistani Army been unable to maintain their positions along quite a few ridges and have literally vacated them with atleast 10 serious attempts made by Pakistan Army to not only retake their own posts but also try and capture the 'offending' Indian post(s) having been a total failure?
Why did they feel the need to activate the Gurez valley in Kanzalwan region if they were doing so well? Mind you irrespective of any fire any where else along LC, any area due North of Machchal i.e.Gurez- Drass- Batalik and onwards, had been peaceful.
Vacating some posts is not bad.we can capture it again.it is clear that they are empty.you will not reveal the details of aggression you are facing.you also have similar condition.i mean your army recovered items from that guru festival route.we have infiltrated deep but you will not accept it.you always talk about your army and how they are beating us.
Nothing happened after kargil but on your side,Praveen sawney said something shocking which you already know.20 years man,20 years! It's a long time.
Come on man! Everyone knows that 7 lakh ate already there.before 370, we have seen c-17. I mean that wasn't crpf,that was bsf.
If this thinking of all Pakistani. We have no problem. They never lost anything because we are not warmongers.
Even Pakistan has 7 lakh men in PoJK + worthless Jihadis , why do you need so many men there???
Asif Gafoor actually linked this with Hindutva and Muslims! I can't believe it, itna khali koi kaise ho sakta hai?
On the other hand shows the filth in mind of Pakistanis and we were taught we can be friends with them! Somebody please tell them it's rocket science, literally, not common abdul strapping sucide jacket to blow up innocents.

the verbal diarrhoea spread by terroristani science and technology minister was patheic even by their own standards.the only plausible reason is that when you are a compelte failure in every field you are nothing but frustrated.
his country only achievment is of making an app for namaz.no respect for these uneducated,uncouth ,shameless sc$um

The Entire Northern command has roughly around 3.5 lakh soldiers which are spread between J&K, Punjab and Rajasthan. That is in addition to the 60,000 Rashtriya Rifles. I'm pretty sure we don't have more than 200k in the entire of Kashmir. That includes the divisions defending the Chinese Border.
‘Should we send you bangles’: NSA Doval on intercepted messages from Pak
National Security Adviser Ajit Doval said on Saturday that intelligence intercepts make it clear that Pakistani handlers of militants in Jammu and Kashmir are frustrated as their designs to spark unrest in the Valley, in the aftermath of the scrapping of the state’s special status, have failed.
“There are Pakistani communication towers 20 kilometers along border, they are trying to send messages, we heard intercepts they telling their men here ‘how so many apple trucks are moving, can’t you stop them? Should we send you bangles?’, Doval said, according to ANI.
In a wide-ranging interaction with a select group of journalists in New Delhi, Doval said that the government was determined to protect lives of Kashmiris from Pakistani terrorists even if we ‘have to impose restrictions’. “Terror is the only instrument Pakistan has to create unrest.”
A security and communication clampdown was imposed in Jammu and Kashmir on August 5 when the government announced the scrapping of Article 370 in the state and also divided it into two union territories – Ladakh and J&K. The state is slowly limping back to normalcy with restrictions on movement and communication being gradually lifted.
“Out of 199 police station areas in J&K only 10 have prohibitory orders in place, rest have no restrictions. 100 percent land line connections are operational in the state,” he added.
Speaking on Pakistan’s efforts to foment trouble, Doval said: “Pakistan is trying to create trouble ,230 Pakistani terrorists were spotted, some of them have infiltrated, some arrested,” reports ANI.
On political detentions, he said they are preventive in nature and very much allowed under the law, which means the government is answerable to courts and will have to pay a heavy penalty if it has done anything extra-judicial.
“I am fully convinced that a majority of Kashmirs totally support the abrogation of Article 370,” Doval said. In the removal of Article 370, announced on August 5, “they (Kashmiris) see greater opportunities, a better future, more jobs for youths,” he said

India has a bold new language for the rest of the world

As a democracy that is part of no bloc, India has held its own on matters crucial to its interests, such as J&K, and that too in a world witnessing a weakening of multilateralism and the rise of aggressive unilateralism
Prime Minister Narendra Modi (Photo: ANI)
Looking eastwards from Turkey towards Japan, you notice one thing. India is the only landmass with an unbroken democracy. It is the world’s largest, with more voters than people in the EU and US combined.
This intrinsic value has helped New Delhi make large overtures to others and secure ground on foreign policy, thus staving off various rounds of rage and criticism within and outside India, most recently when it abrogated Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. The world now recognizes India’s worth as a democratic nation in a dangerous neighbourhood and wants it as an ally. India wants global engagement in its self-interest. Key world leaders are listening in the self-interest of their own countries, perhaps realizing that givers of lessons must first look at their own backyards.
Narendra Modi 2.0 is weaving an interesting tapestry of concentric circles and squares around India’s interests. Foreign policy is multifaceted, buffeted by events driven by big military and economic powers and coalitions. In recent years, as multilateralism weakens, leaving gaping holes filled either by strong-armed unilateralism or plain indifference, India holds its own, belonging to no bloc. Pushing its way forward is an achievement. People want to know what India thinks, not what India “also" thinks.
The bold move on Article 370 will remain a major 100-day marker of Modi 2.0. There’s a robust debate on it in our democracy, but the message internationally is this: Religion is out of India’s foreign policy language. This allows New Delhi to sit at the high table without commas. Pakistan’s one-point foreign policy, Kashmir, is null and void, its complaints against India falling on deaf years. There is talk of US Congressional hearings on Kashmir, but that’s par for the course. New Delhi has managed to quieten US President Donald Trump on Kashmir, who now expects India to help him save face as American troops leave Afghanistan.
“If one were to list key aspects of Modi 2.0’s achievements in foreign policy in 100 days, it would be the success which the government has achieved in balancing the country’s interests between Washington and Moscow and rekindling relationships with Brussels," says Samir Saran, president of the New Delhi-based think tank Observer Research Foundation. India has also stepped up its goodwill and exchanges around the Arabian Sea and beyond. Maldives, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia recognise India’s capacity as a major trader. India continues to maintain its deep historical ties with Iran, despite Washington stepping on its toes to snap ties with Tehran.
Trump is all about Trump and keeping him engaged in India’s interests is a tough call. He sees India as a large market for American goods and services and India sees itself as Washington’s critical ally in the region. Historically, markets are competitors, not allies, and while the penny has dropped with American officials, Trump is hopefully beginning to grasp the realities of why he needs India (read Afghanistan and China).
At the time of writing, Modi is on a visit to Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Modi have given their bilateral meetings top billing, the product of years of work. Russia is India’s all-weather friend, a country that appreciates what Eurasia is all about. Both countries are cooperating on a host of issues, ranging from technology to diplomacy.
India’s interaction with Putin is also a direct message to the EU, with which New Delhi is renewing its vows. The recent G7 summit in Biarritz, France, made it clear that the EU needs fresh leadership. Germany’s Angela Merkel is no longer the voice that Europe and the world listen to. Host and French President Emmanuel Macron was on a war of words with his UK counterpart Boris Johnson. Italy has already broken the EU’s lakshman rekha by signing trade deals with China, and Japan, like Canada, follows rather than leads the G7. Trump wants the EU to bring Russia back to the G7, making it the original G8, an idea that has made others, especially Merkel, balk. Scars of the world’s bloodiest wars run deep.
Modi arrived at the G7 as an invitee, swiftly sewing up loose ends necessary to call out Pakistan-driven terrorism. In a joint declaration, Modi and Macron agreed to work together to root out terrorist safe havens and infrastructure, “disrupting terrorist networks and their financing channels, and halting cross border movement of terrorists belonging to Al Qaeda, Daesh/ISIS, Jaesh-e-Mohammed, Hizbul Mujahedeen, Lashkar-e-Tayabba and their affiliates as well as terrorist groups threatening peace and security in South Asia and the Sahel region". Terrorism, they said, cannot be justified on any grounds, not even religion. A few hours later, the Asia Pacific Group of the G8’s Financial Action Task Force blacklisted Pakistan for failing to comply with its conditions on money laundering and terrorism. Clearly, countries that export terror cannot be part of the high table.
India’s opportunity on the world stage comes at a time when alliances are being redefined and finger-pointers are being called out. There is the EU language, the US language, the Russian language, and the Chinese language. India has entered with a language of its own. It’s time to weave a new idiom and a new set of engagements that represent the world’s largest democracy. Indians expect nothing less of Modi 2.0.
