Indian journalist slams Modi govt over surgical strike lie

Praveen Swami said that Indian forces conducted a very limited operation against Pakistan that was not at all successful.

Lahore (Pakistan Point News – 7th April, 2019) Senior Indian journalist Praveen Swami has exposed the weaknesses of Indian government and Indian Army.

Praveen Swami said that, “We (India) have shown the failed performance of our Air Force.”

He said that Indian forces conducted a very limited operation against Pakistan that was not at all successful.

"India’s claim of carrying out a surgical strike against Pakistan is a lie. India does not have the capability to conduct surgical strike against Pakistan," Swami added.

Relations between India and Pakistan significantly aggravated following Pulwama attack in Kashmir on February 14 where at least 44 Indian paramilitary soldiers were killed.

After the attack, India accused Pakistan of having a "direct hand" in the incident and blamed the neighbouring nation for harbouring and protecting terrorists.

Pakistan had denied its involvement in the attack while Prime Minister Imran Khan has asured India of thorough action if it provides any actionable intelligence.

This was followed by February 26 airstrike by Indian Air Force against what New Delhi said was a camp of Jaish-e-Mohammad, considered a terrorist group by India, and located on the Pakistani soil across the Line of Control.

The Pakistani military, in retaliation, shot down two Indian warplanes in the disputed region of Kashmir on February 27.
