Goes to show how little you know about insurgencies. That’s the same kind of tactic the US and NATO forces tried to apply in Afghanistan, guess why it didn’t work? Because you can’t shoot an ideology or an insurgency away. You have to get rid of the root cause, something India isn’t doing too well in considering how it treats the people in question.
Until they are maligned this way, These insurgencies have an unlimited pool of volunteers, just like you think the IA does. So it’s not a matter of sustenance, if it was, the IA should have won a long time ago. Yet every few months, all over India, multiple insurgencies claim the lives of many Indian servicemen, and they’ve been able to do little to nothing about it.
Maybe take some lessons from Pakistan eh? Why do you think Pakistans COIN Ops were so successful, because they had a major element of re-education and re-building attached to them to fix the people who felt wronged. It seems the mighty Indian army doesn’t know what it’s doing, but then again, never stop an enemy when they are making a mistake.
