This issue has been done to death - Cold Start was a response for this till Pak brought in tactical low yield nukes. The only way you can solve this is either go to war or give in to the enemy.

Pakistan has calculated it well. It keeps the heat, drops in a few terror attacks a year with a big one once every few years while still keeping it just below the level where India would go to war. They got away with 2001 and 2008. What do you expect from them ?

That was a cross border raid, good for morale but not getting a lasting impact. Crossing the border proper would be to go in and PUSH the LOC back a few kms slapping Pakis around in the process. Break their morale and also secure some points which allow easy infiltration.
I don't understand how this would make infiltration easy?? Should be followed by concrete steps like throwing out article 370 and indus water treaty.

There are a lot of point on the LOC where its easy for the Pakis to facilitate infiltration due to area geography. Or places where they have commanding positions and Indian army cannot effectively take on them. Removing these points reduces infiltration.

During the first round of shooting post Modi's inauguration - the army specifically targeted some of those points saying -"We hit some points we have been wanting to take out for a long time"

not with fencing and satellite and drone monitoring. IMO these are last desperation moves of a failed state.

Article 370 will make Kashmir boil and not do anything for infiltration. Local militancy will shoot up.
Indus Treaty - if we scrap it we will have a proper war not just in Kashmir but all over the western border.

Cold start has not been implemented. No one knows the details until it is used.

Good point - Technology is making sneaking quite difficult for Pakis. But still it doesnt solve the problem of daily shooting. If they know that pressing India's buttons will result in a huge backlash they will be forced to rethink their tactics.

We got international support for the "Surgical Strike" and every nation said that its our right to defend ourselves. We can use that opinion to alter the LoC to our favor militarily. It gives India a better launch pad for the eventual retaking of PoK and it smashes the nuclear bogey for good. Pak wont go nuclear for a few Kms on the LoC
