What we achieved is a shift in policy which till now was seen as soft and pacifist.
For a nation with economy and military strength like India, it was punching well below it's weight in responding to Pakistan. This time it is now gearing up to punch at it's weight, something which the terrorist state of Pakistan had not factored in.
The offensives by India are now on all fronts - diplomatic, military and economic like naming and shaming Pakis in UN, bringing up IWT and now the surgical strikes.
BTW, as of now Paki actors have been banned in Indian films. We should now suspend issuance of medical visas too from across the border.
If Pakis can build elaborate terror camps, building a few hospitals should not be that hard for them. Indians should not be allocating Indian healthcare resources to Pakis.

Even Israel uses EW to fool Russian Radars. And since we are close to Israel we might have the tech.

I say, if needed immenuals posts can be curated but need to be spread via SM.
Many people do not know about our own capabilities, especially millennials.

When these Pakis deserted the bodies of young Officers to rot in Kargil and Siachen why would they own these lowly Jihadis who are expandable from day one.
When India ask Pak to take back the body of Capt Taimur Malik SSG Pakis shamelessly refuse it. Even though he was the son late FF colonel.
(Cheema Post pt 5770)
His grandfather had to personally request Gen Malik from back channel England to retrieve the body of his grandson.

Army’s Surgical Strikes Were Carefully Measured: American Think-Tank
he Indian Army’s surgical strike inside Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) against terrorists planning to infiltrate into India for terror activities was “carefully measured”, a top American think-tank said today, adding the onus for escalation lies purely on Pakistan.
“This Indian response was indeed coming. Both as a signal to Pakistan and as reassurance for Indian domestic audiences. Modi could not let the outrage at Uri go unanswered,” Ashley Tellis of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a top American think-tank said.
“The Indian action was carefully measured: striking at terrorist launch pads was meant to signal that India has not lost its freedom to retaliate, but puts the onus of further escalation on Pakistan,” Tellis said. Responding to a question, Tellis said the US will, counsel restraint, but unless the administration is willing to turn the screws on Pakistan — which is unlikely — India will be guided by its own interests, not American pleas for forbearance.
“I think Pakistan has its hands full right now, it is unlikely to respond to the Indian action militarily, but the larger sub-conventional war against India will continue,” Tellis said.
Rick Rossow from the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) recalled that the hint of such strikes was given last year, when the Indian Army initiated an attack against terrorists in Myanmar.
“India has also shown other new tools in its confrontation with Pakistan, such as withdrawing from the upcoming SAARC summit, building stronger ties with other South Asian nations, and using closer security ties with the US as a hook to press for reduced military cooperation with Pakistan,” he said.
“This will likely keep Islamabad on its toes, though when employing new tools in such a struggle, clear messaging is key so both sides know the others’ intentions. This will guard against unanticipated escalation,” Rossow said.
According to him, following a number of recent provocations that India has linked to Pakistan-based terrorist groups, the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has employed a different set of tools to respond to these incitements.
“These tools may not be altogether new, but the fact that they have been the focus of India’s response to Pakistan’s incitements marks a different approach,” he said. Rossow said while the Ministry of Defence has stated it does not plan additional strikes, it is not clear whether the current tensions between India and Pakistan will escalate further.
“There is certainly little expectation that Pakistani militants, under varying degrees of control by Pakistan’s military, will be deterred from initiating further attacks. But the costs to Islamabad of supporting terrorism are increasing, and taking different forms than before,” Rossow said.
Jonah Blank, from the RAND Corporation think tank said that after the Mumbai 2008 attacks, India’s patience had reached its limit. “Pathankot was the breaking point. It was probably unrealistic to expect that the Uri attack would fail to bring a military response,”he said.
“The phone call between Ajit Doval and Susan Rice accomplished two important things: First, it enlisted the US to help prevent a Pakistani counter-strike. Second, it avoided jeopardizing the India-US relationship by having Washington find out about the attack from Islamabad or the media, he noted.
“There was never much likelihood that the US would condemn the attack. After an American surgical strike against Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad, any criticism of India for a cross-border action would have seemed hypocritical,” Blank said.
“The outcome, limited Indian strike, limited Pakistani response, was probably as good as could have been desired. A stronger Indian strike, or a Pakistani escalation into full warfare, would not have served either nation’s interest,” he said.

Since last year, the Indian Army has been monitoring the following launch-pads used by the Pakistan Army to infiltrate its ‘Sarkari Jihadi’ detachments into Jammu & Kashmir: from Bhimber Gali towards Shopian and Anantnag; from Lipa towards Baramula; from Jura towards Sopore; from Athmuqam towards Kupwara; from Dudhnial, Tejian, Shardi, Rattapani and Kel towards Machhal; and from Saonar and Sardari towards Kupwara and Sopore.
Finally, eight launch-pads spread over a linear 250km frontage and located at Bhimber Gali,Hot Springs, Lipa, Kel and Rattapani were chosen for targetted, surgical destruction lasting 7 hours (inclusive of cross ingress/egress) by the Indian Army’s 4 SF (Para) and 9 SF (Para) Battalions.
As a diversionary tactic, the Indian Army had earlier conducted light field artillery and mortar strikes at locations inside PoK, like Bandala, Samahni and Tatta Pani.
