Why won't they work? Just because you "believe"?

Sub 82 IQ take. You want to light an entire mountain without knowing where they hide lol.
1.) I don't "believe" that drones won't work. I KNOW they DON'T work. What you are saying has been tried before. Same results in those forests.

2.) Gosh you guys really have comprehension issues. The "lighting up with artillery" argument was made to underline the ludicrous nature of solutions being proposed by brochure warriors here. All of the shiny brochures being thrown around here will fail in this specific Rajouri forest use cases. Don't really mind being called "sub -82 IQ" as long as the message is being delivered.

You will have to carpet bomb the entire forest, small homes within forest area, etc without any localization of targets. Such loud noise and carpet bombing will set back government’s agenda in J&K, and the end of tourism there as every 2 bit news media will declare J&K as a war zone. No G20, no tourism nothing. If this tactic was effective IDF would have bombed entire Lebanese forests to get rid of the hiding hezbollahs. Carpet bombing is just wishful thinking.
Glad you understand the sheer lunacy of the idea. What you are proposing is similar in scale if not the effect.

This Rajouri shitshow has turned into game of attrition now. There is NO easy way out. And these terrorists are no sub-82 IQ types (unlike the brochure warriors here😅). Unless local HUMINT is sorted out and regular domination of these forests is not done, expect more such events in the future.

1.) Step outside your room and visit Kashmir for once. DRONES WON'T WORK. This has been repeated ad nauseam on this thread over many years. The foliage is too damn thick. And you are talking about deploying MALE drones to support ops in a super dense Montane Forest? Are you 13 years old?

2.) Why non-lethal ones. I am all for Agent Orange'ing these swines. But to do that, you have to get them first. Which is when we sustain casualties.

For those members who are not familiar with how these things work, the OGWs of these terrorists have made numerous weapon/ammo/resupply hideouts in these forests over a long period of time. The infiltrating group has a clear cut strategy as to how to mount attacks using which hideout and the relevant fall back positions or exfio routes. That is why these ops stretch on for months on end.

There is NO solution to this problem save for the extreme one. Like a certain Brigadier Pratap said, it is about the Qaum. The sooner we get ourselves out the of the delusions of the good/bad type, the better of we will be.
Why aren’t we hitting the pads across the border, is what I want to know? Most of their main camps are literally on the LoC, from their side. They can’t make hideouts here if they aren’t able to infiltrate.

While the LoC is calm, attempts to smuggle weapons and drugs using drones, mainly from areas of Jammu, continue. The army has said that counter-drone equipment has been deployed to prevent frequent drone intrusions.
Most of these drone intrusions have taken place along the international border (IB) in Kathua, Samba, and Jammu district. Unlike the LoC, the IB is manned by the Border Security Force (BSF).

between late 2014 and 2019, launch pads across the border used to get hit under the cover of CFV duels.
there will be posts on this in the old closed LOC thread.

Wasted an hour searching for an old video (of around the same time US withdrew from Afghanistan) where a PAF veteran was explaining how India would be subjected to a 4 pronged pincer in 2023-24

& bloody hell... all that is happening... 4 pincers he mentioned arw China, Pak, Kashmir & NE.

i think nothing major will happen before g20 srinagar but efforts will be made later before election to not only humiliate india but also dampen modi's image before election

What I wanted to say was, Pakistan will conduct some big terror strike before Srinagar G20 (obvious). If they fail, this is a win-win for us, and things will calm down.

However, if Pakistan succeeds (high probability), we will be forced to respond (either after G20, if it happens, or if it gets canceled, immediately). Now, all these have been game-planned by China + Pakistan in the last two months (High-level meets between ISI & MSS).

So this gives us three situations,
  • India still doesn't respond after a massive terror attack and possibly G20 cancellation. The reason is China breathing down our neck in Ladakh & Arunachal Pradesh. This will be a massive face-loss for the BJP as well as India as a country whole. This will have long-term consequences which won't be pleasant.

  • India responds by Balakot/Surgical-strike type operation. Pakistan will 100% escalate to a local conflict. India either ignores subsequent escalation (very hard), or downplays it due to Chinese threat. Again, losing face massively, plus giving a moral victory to Pakistan.

  • India responds by Balakot/Surgical-strike type operation. Pakistan escalates to a local conflict, and we respond in kind. China joins the game to put multi-pronged pressure, which might not be limited to local land-grab like in 2020, but a large-scale combined China-Pak kinetic over northern J&K (Drass-Kargil-Siachen) and Ladakh.
Anyway, all these situations are loose-loose for India.

[Please don't start a meltdown, all these are hypothetical]

Hmm specifically mentioned ambush (truck attack). That may mean it's on his mind, which may mean it's being discussed in high circles.

The 3rd secenario may happen, can't have strongman leader taking provocations from India favorite punching bag lying down especially when LS elections are close.
Imo they will lockdown Srinagar unofficially and saturate it and surroundings with CAPFs, so doing something on/at the G20 venue is unlikely.

Interesting times ahead
But what if there is no terror attack?

G20 will end in September. So, whatever terrorist attack occurs before the Srinagar summit (big or small), only the first scenario will happen. After September, common public will forget about this and it'll be business as usual. Maybe, they'll do something before elections.
