I was giving interviews to different channels throughout the day yesterday, and I slept at 1 am, but was woken up by a call from NDN TV at 0230 a.m.
I was informed about India’s cowardly missile attacks on civilian targets at six places killing 26 and injuring 46 elderly, women and children. Mosques were targeted. Some damage was caused to the Neelum Jhelum hydel project in Muzaffarabad.
Indian jets fired their missiles from inside the Indian territory, and were not allowed to intrude and were chased and shot down by PAF jets.
India justified its unprovoked offensive acts under the plea that it had targeted the mosques of Maulana Azhar in Bahawalpur and Ahmedpur Sharqia, of Hafiz Saeed in Muridke and Muzaffarabad involved in terrorism.
India forgot that the two Kashmir-focused groups had been banned in 2003, and their offices closed. Azhar is an aged sick man, and Hafiz Saeed is undergoing a long jail term.
Pakistan had already informed India in advance that Pak armed forces would hit back with full force if it tried to attack.
It lived up to its commitment, and within minutes gave ferocious responses by engaging India’s military targets only.
The PAF Shaheens pounced upon their prey like flying tigers and in no time downed India’s three prized Rafael jets, one SU 30, one MiG 29 jets, and one armed drone. Several airbases including Srinagar were struck and damaged with missiles. No damage was done to any jet of PAF. Within 30 minutes, PAF achieved air superiority which is a rare feat.
As a result Pakistan Aviation has today opened airspace for civil flights.
The world rating of Rafael and Russian jets has dropped, and that of JF 17 & J10 C escalated by 18 points each. The jet losses have caused a financial loss of one billion dollars to India.
On ground, our troops retaliated punitively and destroyed 40 posts along the LoC, forcing the deployed Indian troops to run backwards to safety. One Bde HQ and one Sikh unit Bn HQ were completely destroyed. At Jaura, Chakothi, Leepa, Chirikot sectors, Indian soldiers waved white flags because their casualties were heavy.
On the diplomatic front, Donald Trump stated that India’s aggression was shameful. The UN Secy Gen condemned India, and so was the case with the international community.
No one supported India’s unprovoked offensive. No country has declared its support for India.
China, Turkiye and Bangladesh are standing with Pakistan. The GCC States and other Muslim countries are buying the narrative of Pakistan and not India.
The Indian Sikh community is standing in Pakistan’s camp.
The Kashmiri Muslims locked up in the biggest open jail, and undergoing harrowing tortures at the hands of occupational forces, hate India and love Pakistan. In case an open war flares up, they are likely to galvanize their armed resistance against Indian forces.
Instead of isolating Pakistan, India finds itself isolated. Instead of creating fissures within the Pak Army and creating a wedge between the people of Pakistan and the Pak Army, cracks have appeared in the Indian Army and IAF. A revolt-like situation has emerged in the Indian army due to the revolt of the Sikhs.
Pakistan armed forces have decisively won the first round and have delivered a knock out punch to war mongering India. It is only a defensive bout.
The targets chosen for destruction by air were approved by the NSC, and were the same that were effectively engaged on the night of 26/27 Feb 2019, but the actual targets were spared.
Those targets that were locked by our jets, included the command bunker in which the army chief Gen Bipen was sitting.
In the NSC meeting chaired by the PM today, the armed forces have been given a green signal to continue giving a befitting reply to each and every offensive act of India, and if need be, go for offensive defence in already chosen areas across the LoC/ border, and to take on strategic static installations including some dams.
The northern strike Corps is ready for a deeper manoeuvre towards Anupgarh
The southern strike Corps is also itching to dive into IOK from the selected approach.
The PAF is ready to strike Indian airbases and to engage the IAF in air duels.
The PN is fully geared to defend the coastline and EEZ and to confront IN.
Diplomatic efforts of the world powers, the UN and OIC are going on to de-escalate and prevent a possible nuclear war.
Notwithstanding the efforts to restore peace, it must not be forgotten that for the first time after the 1965 war, the nation is gelled and united. The old warrior spirit has been revived.
Never before were the armed forces so well-prepared for a war with India as of now.
Never before has Pakistan achieved an edge over India on multiple fronts of information, diplomacy, technology, weaponry, electronic warfare, jamming, cyber space, satellite communications, war preparedness, and above all, will to fight and die.
Due to myopic policies of successive regimes, instead of fighting back India’s wars of subversion, propaganda, proxies, falsehood, Pakistan has been following a policy of appeasement.
Pak Army and the Pakistanis were the biggest losers and victims of one-sided appeasement and apologetic and reactive responses to India’s aggressive acts.
For the first time, India’s ugly face has been fully exposed before the world.
After a very long time, Pakistan is once again behaving like a hard State.
For the first time, Pakistan has taken a tough stance on the question of the impartial inquest of the Pahalgam incident. Pakistan is insisting since its hands are clean. India is shirking since it once again wants to hide its crime and to declare Pakistan an offender.
India has been getting away with its massive crimes against humanity, state terrorism, proxy wars, false flag operations, and fake allegations, because of the protective shield of the US, Israel, and the Western world.
This time, since the orchestrated Pahalgam drama was full of loopholes, India has failed to cover it up, because of the non-cooperation of its traditional backers.
Now that jingoistic Modi is caught in a bind due to excessive pressure from the Indian public, from his party, and lackadaisical support of its western patrons, India is desperate for a face-saving and to end the war.
To this end the world powers and the international community has become active to immediately defuse the explosive situation heading towards a full scale war and a possible nuclear exchange, which will affect the whole region.
I would like to remind my friends and well-wishers that India has still not accepted the existence of Pakistan and has been looking for opportunities to further break it up into three parts. This mindset will remain unchanged for times to come. No goodwill should be expected from the Hindutva crazy BJP.
The other thing is that like Israel, India is the most cunning and rigid country. It has been constantly singing the mantra of ‘Atoot Ang’ (integral part) from 1949 onwards, and didn’t show a bit of flexibility in its stance over Kashmir.
Secondly, India has been constantly harping on the theme of terrorism, asserting that Pakistan is the biggest abettor of terrorism, and India is a victim. There has not been any change in its theme from Mumbai attacks in Nov 2008. All its false flag operations were designed to reinforce this narrative.
India’s rigidity and its penchant for fake news and blaming Pakistan for all its own sins will have to be curtailed.
Otherwise, India will continue blaming Pakistan and continue bleeding Pakistan through proxies.
To this end, Pakistan must stand up and agree to de-escalate the situation subject to completion of a probe by a neutral body to investigate the Pahalgam incident and find out who was guilty.
India must be held accountable for breaking the Indus Water Treaty agreement in violation of international laws.
If Pakistan succeeds in these two endeavours, it can help in reining in war mongering India.
Otherwise, the moment India is bailed out and let off the hook, it will execute another false flag operation, and will never terminate its hideous practice of cross border terrorism.
Lastly, the world must again be reminded to settle the oldest dispute of Kashmir, which is the bone of contention and has nuclearized South Asia and brought the two antagonists to the brink of a nuclear exchange.
