If the Indian Army had to start a war with Pakistan

Have not we gone away from the topic - why will India attack Pakistan?
One answer is if Pakistan attacks India - obviously India will attack Pakistan? That scenario can not be denied as in Kargil !

But we at talking about a planned war to achieve certain goals.

'TOI'let paper headlines: Top Secret strategic documents leak again: GOI calls them fakes

As per sources, leaked top secret documents reveal a major strategic shift in the Indian policy towards India's neighbours especially Pakistan. Though GOI vehemently denies them to be legitmate, analysts who are familiar with the kind of documents suggests that they can be as real as they can get.

Considering that the attacks by the next door neighbour Pakistan on Indian soil are becoming more frequent and to top it, the support of the pakistani establishment towards those attacks covertly and overtly is not seeing any changes, Indian govt decided to take the asymmetric warfare to the next level. For every attack on the Indian soil by state or sponsored 'non-state' actors, Indian govt will assasinate one major terrorist leader in the most wanted list openly roaming the streets of Pakistan, one top rung leader of the army/ISI responsible for the operations, one major political leader actively supporting the anti-Indian establishment. To top it all, Indian govt will start supporting openly/covertly one resistance movement (ala Sindh, Baloch, Pashtun freedom movements) everytime an attack happens. Based on the intensity of the attack, Indian defense forces may decide to intervene in Pakistan and grab a part of the country. Analysts predict that despite the pakistani nuclear threats, Indian govt is now confident of it's capability to defend the territory against any nuclear attacks with the missile shield. If the documents are to be believed, it will be a major strategic shift in India's outlook and also puts an enormous pressure on pakistan to not only exercise severe restraint but also the onus of stopping terror attacks from the non-state actors rests with the pakistani establishment. This will change the equations of the Asia dramatically. This can be the long delayed response of the Indian establishment to the current Pakistani strategy of 'damage by 1000 cuts'.

Music to my ears if true. Seriously the government is growing a brain and some balls??

So far in about nine web pages we have only reached a conclusions that the heat crated by insurgencies and terrorism inside India by Pakistan will force India to apply its military might against Pakistan. The internal disturbance can be related to J&K, the Maoists (overtly and covertly helped by India) or large scale terrorist attack on cities and political establishments.

Similarily if Pakistans political and geographical existence is threatened, then she bay be pushed to wage a war.

But Can what ever is happening in NE be a cause of conflict between India and Pakistan>

Ok change to topic but part of a larger plan to find a military solution, what all can india to overtly/covertly to put solids pressure on Pakistan that Pakistan attacks first once again and india Just grabs the opportunity with both hands as it wanted just that.

Practically speaking...what option do India have to deter or counter Paki nuke attacks... has anyone even heard of any nuke shelters or our BMD is strong enough for now to destroy?

When would those terrorist leaders would be assasinated? All we know is that they are living in Pakistan lavishly for decades.

* Insurgencies and destabilisation of Pakistan internally will force PA to attack India militarily.
* bad or volatile situation in J&K or Punjab may be temping for Pakistan to attack India once again.
* gradual control of rivers flowing into Pakisatn may also force them to attack India.

the above is both ways ...

Exactly that. India could rather make it overt it's support for separatists in Pakistan and push Pakistan to the brink.

But let first India get ready for war - Gen VK Singh's letter refers. There is no long time stake holder here. They all are "Sanu Ki.."

Now that is the question I would like to ask......? What is RAW doing there ?

RAW should be politically allowed that . Is not it?
What happens if Dawood hypothetically controls all black money financing of Robert Vadra in real state? He finances the elections in Maharashtra? Would he sleep in comfort or would he have sleepless nights?

RAW is not an independent agency. It is under Madam..
If Dawood is killed many would loose their billions !


But again we are going off topic. Is not it?

Going to war is not an overnight decision. If a decision is taken that yes we have to go to war and finish the menace, then adequate time will be provided, strategies chalked out. "atmosphere" for war created. Pretext found etc.

The key is, to recognize that the solution to many of India's current security problems lie in the dismantling of the state of Pakistan, it's capacity to wage war (covert/overt) and generally being a nuisance.

Sorry .... can't resist, is it true or you bluffing and before UPA there was NDA what is their story ?

Forget it until you have a credible BMD or info and capability to blow out all nuclear weapon installations and assets of Pakistan.
