Its actually side effects of Tramp on you, coming up surgical strike.

forgetting that we did it 3 times in 6 months. Indian media and government accepted it. more will follow. more will be killed. more will be humiliated with fake surgical strikes. more will be fooled again to win elections. more will lose heads.

Not just fenced, there are mined and other measures too, it seems India is trying to fool their people about fake attack or fencing measures which they have installed along with LoC, one out of both is lie.

A range of retaliatory measures are being weighed by India’s generals, including attacks by ground forces on Pakistani posts, or strikes by aircraft, missiles or massed artillery guns, reports Ajai Shukla.


The Army has begun weighing its options to retaliate against Pakistani forces on the Line of Control, after their troops, employing jihadi extremists, killed and beheaded two Indian soldiers near Poonch on Monday, top generals said.

It is learnt that the incident took place when an Indian patrol of 8-10 soldiers was checking the border fence, a perilous task involving physically moving along the fence, very close to the LoC, to check that it has not been cut or its electronic sensors damaged.

According to the modus operandi of Pakistani troops on forward LoC posts, the exposed patrol first came under intense fire from automatic weapons, which Pakistani soldiers had stealthily deployed in temporary positions, just across the LoC.

With two Indian jawans injured in the firing, a ‘border action team’, comprising jihadi fighters, darted across the LoC to the border fence. Covered by the Pakistan army’s firing, the jihadis killed the two jawans, beheaded them, and returned to their side of the LoC, bearing the heads as trophies.

The employment of a BAT is a well-rehearsed Pakistani tactic that creates deniability by using jihadis to cross into the Indian side.

The employment of a BAT is a well-rehearsed Pakistani tactic that creates deniability by using jihadis to cross into the Indian side. If any jihadis are killed or captured, the Pakistan army disowns it as an infiltration attempt.

Regular soldiers remain on their side of the LoC, firing on Indian posts and patrols to cover the BAT’s move.

A range of retaliatory measures are being weighed by India’s generals, including attacks by ground forces on Pakistani posts, or strikes by aircraft, missiles or massed artillery guns.

Earlier, an Army officer had said that there was a ceasefire violation in the area and that details are being sought.

“There was no ceasefire violation along the LoC in Poonch. It was speculative fire,” an army officer of northern command said.

Speculative fire is normally used to check movement of suspicious persons along the border.

Army Vice-Chief Lieutenant General Sarath Chand, on Tuesday, said, "Humko kya karna hai woh hum yahaan bataana nahin chahte hain. Apni karyavahi hum apne aap karenge, at a time and place of our choice (I don’t want to give out here what we intend to do. We will take action at a time and place of our choice)."


On Monday, the Army's Director General of Military Operations, Lieutenant General A K Bhatt, warned of retaliation during a phone call to his Pakistani counterpart. A defence ministry release stated: ‘The DGMO of the Indian Army conveyed that such a dastardly and inhuman act is beyond any norms of civility and merits unequivocal condemnation and response.'

Defence Minister Arun Jaitley also sounded a warning on Monday, "The country has full confidence and faith in our armed forces, which will react appropriately to this inhuman act. The sacrifice of these soldiers will not go in vain."

However, army sources emphatically rejected Indian media claims -- by India Today TV and Dainik Jagran newspaper -- that the Indian Army had already visited retribution, killing 10 Pakistani soldiers in an attack.

Last September, the Indian Army had retaliated to a jihadi strike on an army post near Uri with multiple cross-LoC ‘surgical strikes’ that are believed to have killed several jihadi fighters and a handful of Pakistani soldiers.

After another attack in November, the Indian Army secretly moved 155 millimetre Bofors guns into forward firing positions, destroying two Pakistani posts in a massed fire assault.

Even so, senior generals admit there are limitations on how much, and how often, Pakistani posts on the LoC can be punished, even in retaliating to an inhuman violation that involved mutilating Indian soldiers.

Inadequate punishment fails to deter Pakistani violations, while an excess could set off a cycle of escalation that could spiral out of control.

Moreover, the Indian military does not have a tri-service plan for immediate retaliation to such incidents.

This would involve pre-selecting Pakistan army or jihadi targets, earmarking the aircraft, missiles, guns or Special Forces to hit them and devising defensive measures for the inevitable Pakistani retaliation.

In what might be an unlinked development, the Army on Tuesday test-fired a BrahMos land-to-land missile, demonstrating what an official release described as ‘the weapon’s unmatched lethality of hitting the centre of a designated target with ‘bull’s eye’ precision’.

The BrahMos would be an important component of any concerted Indian cross-LoC strike capability.

This is true Indian mentality. You shoot Kshmiris for just pelting stones, and you threat of missile attack against unproven reports alleging Pak army for the murder of your soldiers. I think after some days Indian people will say nuke Pakistan for sending pigeons.

In Kashmir Subsonic CM will be difficult to detect and Brahmos can't hide itself due to its speed and low maneuverability compared to subsonic CMs and there are no assets in AJK which are far and need to be taken out by high end weapon its over kill, while Pakistan will need to use CMs to take out key targets deep inside IoK.

No man made thing is invincible.

I see the narrative has now changed from "Pakistani Soldiers" to "Jihadis working with Pakistani Soldiers".

And excuse me? The darted across the LOC? Last time I checked the LOC wasn't like the border between Belgium and France that you can simply "dart" over. There are usually two opposing slopes, a river and did they not mention themselves that there was a fence there? Did they just "dart" through that too? Does several layers of razor wire and minefields simply amount to naught once these magical jihadis in their Jordans start "darting"?
