Western mischief on IWT |
The four-day high intensity India-Pakistan of May 2025 has been listed as one of the most significant events of the world of the outgoing year. Its roots have been traced to Pahalgam terror attack that spotlighted Kashmir.
West is working overtime to project more dangerous clashes in the region, sidestepping the question of cross-border terrorism through which Pakistan has been staging murderous brutalities in the country, particularly Jammu and Kashmir.
The west is dragging the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, announced by Delhi on April 23, a day after horrific tragedy of Pahalgam attack; into the conflict without censuring Pakistan for what all it had been doing to India for over decades. This is a typical western mischief. The Pahalgam incident is just one example of that.
Terrorists had massacred 26 civilians, 25 of them tourists in Pahalgam on April 22, 2025. The attack had sent shockwaves across the country. The incident was sponsored by Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba. It was for the first time that India reacted to the terror attack in an unprecedented manner – the earlier response to the terror assaults in Uri in 2016 and Pulwama in 2019 were left far behind. This year it was an unimaginable punishment for terrorists and their patrons in Pakistan.
Operation Sindoor, the military action launched in small hours of May 7 was directed at terror infrastructure and terrorists in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir to punish perpetrators and backers of the terror. Now it has evolved into an international brand of counter-terrorism.
