Surgical strikes video surfaces Election may be far away, but preparation precedes much before. BJP has been preparing for 2019, or was in perpetual election mode from day one. BJP has just released a promotional video of Emergency after 43 years .What is the purpose? Surgical strikes happened in Sept.2016 ? Pakistan knows, India knows and so does the army. Does BJP want to convince the masses? Pakistan has always denied as fake, the opposition demanded proof falling into its trap. Pakistan will now call it a fake video too. Is the security of armed forces , strategy, weaponry at stake?, Govt spokesperson denied releasing it daring the channel to investigate the source as technically it is not official.
USA mission against dreaded terrorist Osama Bin Laden in Faridabad , was in army cantonment area. Pakistan. It is still best kept secret, though Musaraf denied it and then changed tune that Pakistan Govt was kept in the loop, as a face saving device. No proof till date is in public domain of USA strategic forces operations or slaying of Osama. The ruling party is in a continuous mode to be relevant and project issues to influence the mind of voters o continue in power.The BJP is pushed to the corner with opposition uniting to make India mukht BJP. The BJP is thus trying to invent itself anew with continuous blast against Congress in particular The surgical strikes have not deterred Pakistan because the terrorist strikes, provocation across the line of control continues What lesson has Pakistan been taught about our ability to strike at a place and time of our choosing ? Pakistan all the while continues to bleed India in low intensity terrorists strikes by non state actors. The most inhuman mutilation of our soldiers has continued unabated and targeting of innocent civilians on purpose. The strike by special forces have been for the first time , but raids across the border inflicting costs and damages have gone on for years without publicity, This time alone there is hype and publicity that BJP has achieved wonders and what Congress dared not. The army has been politicized and who released the footage, on whose behalf and why after 2 years is a moot point, Does the army need publicity of video footage to shore up its efficiency , integrity to take decisions.? Either it should have been released immediately or not at all either to pander to the opposition, or as a bravado for BJP. Or proof or Pakistan, With all the proofs about Mumbai strikes and Patankot army base attack Pakistan continues to deny as their standard procedure, BJP can claim support for surgical strikes like the Pokaram nuclear blast being in power but not shout from the roof tops as their best achievement. The army by regulations cannot defend itself publicly, deny or affirm its actions in the best interest of Nation and army discipline Hence shooting from the shoulders of armed forces for political mileage should be refrained both by the ruling party and opposition in the interest of Nation Surgical strikes had limited scope and it was met as form of retaliation for specific purpose, but is has not served a s permanent deterrent, judging by atrocities committed by Pakistan thereafter and till date It is a right perception to conclude that surgical strike is being flogged for the purpose of accentuating political considerations Nelson Lopes Chinchinim
