I would say both. But I wonder why are they so intent on using SSG as cannon fodder rather than true tip of the spear. Or are they labelling any half-trained infantryman as SSG?

Napakis were planning to put GoI and PM Modi in a tight spot before the Kartarpur inauguration..

That I agree with, we were caught at a vulnerable moment, because we were caught unawares by them dusting off their old plans (just like Napakis the day before). Also we were taken aback by Napakis rushing head-on into a fight just for face-saving. That we recovered splendidly and pulled down...

@rkhanna, I believe you may have read the posts of Karan M, Rudradev and Ramana over at BRF about what exactly happened on Feb 27th and what it exactly means and what objectives were achieved. One thing was certain, more than luck it was Napaki arrogance and incompetence that led to vast...

The important thing that folks miss about the Balakot strike and Feb 27 events is that we demonstrated that we can control the escalation ladder and all those Hai tauba shenanigans about any conflict spiralling out of control were completely rubbish.

Haven't seen the video, what exactly did he say about SS?

Why do we have such SoPs in the first place? Why they were never upgraded, evolved or done away with? Who is responsible for devising and implementing these? According to you isn't that an indictment of the same "some of the best human resources"?

It's Saikat Datta. Read some of his previous goat droppings to know why this one is no different.

And that's the bottomline. We need both and we need them capable. Tall ask, given the neta-babu shahi in this country.

Fortuners are build in India, so are Safaris. Says a lot about the country's efforts at indigenisation if the top leadership is being accompanied phoren-mall bedecked, security detail. I sincerely hope that one day in the future, the security cavalcade accompanying our top leadership will...

Just a nitpick, please don't mark that area n green as Pakistan. It is Pak occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

It appears logical but it is also highly simplistic. Because by that reasoning, more muscle mass also indicates higher metabolic/calorific requirements. Under adverse conditions, those inputs will be severely compromised and body reserves activated. Thus, longer survival on body stores will...

Scientific studies are the ones most lacking in many assertions here. I only hope the that's not how most decisions are made..

A neutralised/eliminated HVT is fine. A merely injured one, not quite so sure, especially if he comes back.

Citations are unlikely to given for mere injuries.. Got to be bigger.

Looks like one of the recent undisclosed operations- and it should stay that way. Must have hit some big stuff to get such citations.

I do hope the Indian LWAD and the acceptance of Shetatkar comittee's recommendations by GoI would have us see a much more streamlined and optimised SOCOM in the future. But given the inertia of the Indian babushaahi, it will be a herculean task.

Aapke chaiwaale ke moonh mein ghee-shakkar aur stall pe grahakon ki bharmaar.

I wouldn't be so sure of that.

I was with all your arguments and reasoning but that's one big bit of bunkum. No one cares what Shitistanis say and you shouldn't either. The movie being shit will do nothing to bolster or shoot down Shitistani lies. Just like Zero Dark Thirty being trash and thin on facts did not support the...
