This is serious development. Indian media is
blaming Pakistan for deployment and its political parties and military
leadership are beating the war drums! There is no doubt now that Indians
plan an invasion and are provoking Pakistan by attacks.
Nation, wake up and be serious !
The crisis must be resolved in Islamabad immediately, even if it means
military bringing a patriotic caretaker government. All patriots must
increase pressure on the government to resign and should ask the army
and the SC to bring in patriotic caretakers. We cannot afford to waste
time in useless legal debates or administrative procedures. If no one
can do it, then army must ! NO time to waste now.

Jaipur/Ahmedabad: Pakistan has
deployed more troops across the international borders with Rajasthan and
Gujarat in the wake rising tension between the two countries after the
killing of Indian soldiers on LoC in Jaamu and Kashmir on January 8.
"A lot of military movement is being noticed in Barmer, Jaisalmer
and Jodhpur districts and Gujarat along the international border for the
last few days, which is not normal," BSF sources said.
The BSF has launched an 'operation alert' along the border.
"Patrolling across the border has intesified while defence personnel are
constantly on vigil from watch towers," they said.
The BSF has also begun extensive patrolling around the border posts
and stationed ambush parties at a number of places. According to
Rajasthan Frontier spokesperson DIG RK Thapa, the operation would
continue until January 8.
On a day when Pakistan vehemently denied its involvement in the
killings of Indian jawans, including the beheading of a soldier, General
Bikram Singh on Monday warned of revenge. The Indian Army chief termed
the beheading “unacceptable and unpardonable” and said India reserves
the right to retaliate at the “time and place of its choice”. He added
that India’s military has been asked to respond “aggressively and
offensively”.
“We have firing plans with us but I do not want to divulge anything
at this moment. But we will answer them,” General Singh said. “India
reserves its right to retaliate at the time and place of its choice. We
won’t remain passive when attacked.”
The brigadier-level flag meeting at Chakan-da-Bagh in Poonch
district on Monday failed to de-escalate tension between the two
countries as India and Pakistan stuck to their guns. While the Indian
delegation led by Brigadier MVS Kumar expressed grave concern about the
barbaric act by Pakistani troops in Mendhar sector last week, Pakistan
denied its involvement in the incident. It claimed there was no
ceasefire violation by its troops and alleged that Indian troops crossed
the LoC and killed a Pakistani soldier apart from injuring another.
Putting the onus of maintaining the ceasefire on Pakistan, General
Bikram Singh said India will uphold it as long as the “adversary” does.
However, he added that he expected commanders posted along the LoC to be
“aggressive and offensive”. General Singh claimed the Indian Army has
adequate resources and wisdom at the Commander level and the operation
per se will be dealt with at a ‘tactical level’.
Pakistan says India blowing issue out of proportion
Pakistan continued to deny decapitating any Indian soldier's body
and maintained that India was blowing things out of proportions. This
came even as former Indian diplomats and Army chiefs claim that
Pakistan's actions are tantamount to a war crime.
Retired Pakistan Air Vice Marshal Abid Rao told IBN18, "First of
all, if what you have said is right, I condemn it. The statements given
by your Army Chief and your Air Chief...they are blowing the issue
beyond proportion. These things can be settled in local flag meeting.
Don't blow it out of proportion where public sentiment is also blown up
to an extent where people are talking about revenge."
Former Indian diplomat KC Singh replied saying, "To say that we
have blown it out of proportion is wrong. It is not a simple death. It's
a question of an intruder coming in and committing what is tantamount
to war crime."
