The Dragunov has been re-marked to take down targets upto 1000 metres by expert snipers which shows how deadly and accurate it is.

And I thought I had mentioned (in my post you are referring to) that at 1 km taking down a chopper even with a sniper rifle 'is a long shot', meaning not that easy!!
We need to rid the army of shitty dragunov rifles, it's not even a sniper rifle but a marksman rifle. Even pakis have better rifles than us.

This interview with the DG was probably taken before the retaliation but published later. Here, check this out...

Sources in the BSF confirmed that Pakistan suffered significant casualties in the heavy retaliatory shelling.

Tell this to dumbass who was sliping Paki propaganda word to word hiding behind Indian flag. Not just that he is creating nuisance on this thread when people started countering his propaganda and dumbness.

Guys - engaging the troll makes you no better than the troll. Just saying. If they are not engaged, they will go away. Also, looks like the mods are not very active which is understandable - they have lives. It is upto us to self moderate. Please don't derail the thread.

15 Pakistan Rangers killed in retaliatory fire by BSF

NEW DELHI: Fifteen Pakistan Rangers were killed by the Border Security Force (BSF) in retaliatory fire to a ceasefire violation along the International Border (IB) with Pakistan, PTI reported quoting the BSF.

A senior BSF officer said a conservative estimate made by its personnel and surveillance equipment show that at least 15 Pakistan Rangers have been killed.

It was 11 Rangers estimated to have been killed earlier. The figure has now gone up to 15. Maybe more. The number of injured could be even higher!

Cheers! :daru:

What is it? Retaliatory firing?

Other reports have reported a cross-IB/LoC operations involving BSF and IA SFs.

I think that's false. No SF took part as far as I know. However, there was protracted fire by the BSF from 81mm and 120mm mortars only. But it was intense resulting in 14 Rangers being killed and many more injured.

paki heli violates air space
No offense, but proof Kya hai.

Poonch is on LOC, on LOC forget helos even tall structure are not to be errected within 1km of LOC.

Moreover, there should have been lot of noise over crossing the LOC.

The chopper breached the 1km agreement by 700m, so they were actually in PoK airspace but they had violated the agreement. Reports also state that 2 IAF jets were also scrambled, don't know how truthful are these reports.

@Mikesingh would be the appropriate person to ask. i would be surprised if we dont.
No manpads at the LoC. These are used for protecting VAs (Vulnerable Areas) and VPs (Vulnerable Points) together with vehicle mounted platforms in concentric arcs. However the inner arc could cover parts across the LoC if its part of the defence of a VA / VP near the LoC.

It's the good old LMGs in AA role at the LoC!

Well i hope IAF is saying right otherwise it can be a disaster , you cant trust on your enemy.

we have to increase level of our preparation not just about pakistan but it should be about china , our numbers are very very small & we have to increase our numbers in all three section , army,navy,iaf.

Govt need to give more funds for defence modernization & increase its number, till now got funds are not up to level

There is no reason for Pakistan to exist besides being an anti-India entity. Their whole identity is based on trying to be the opposite of India.

BSF avenges jawan’s mutilation

14 Pak Rangers killed, 6 bunkers across border destroyed

Days after Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh’s assertion that “something big has happened” in retaliation to BSF jawan Narender Singh’s brutal killing by Pakistani forces, it has now emerged that the BSF killed 14 men of Pakistan Rangers and destroyed six bunkers on the intervening night of September 25 and 26 along the Line of Control in Jammu & Kashmir.

As a tit for tat for tying the feet of Singh and slitting his throat, the BSF also inflicted befitting injuries on at least two personnel of the Pakistan Rangers, top sources said.

The BSF jawan was killed on September 18 by the Pakistan Rangers while clearing elephant grass on the international boundary along with a team.

“Hamare BSF ka ek jawan, abhi uske saath jis tarike se badsalooki ki hai Pakistan ne, shayad aapne dekha hoga. Kuch hua hai, main bataoonga nahi. Hua hai, theek thaak hua hai, vishwaas rakhna bahut theek thaak hua hai, 2-3 din pehle. Aur aage bhi dekhiega kya hoga” (Something has happened, I can’t tell you what. It happened, something substantial. Trust me something big has happened 2-3 days back, now wait and watch what happens in the future), the Home Minister had said on Friday while referring to the killing of BSF jawan Narender.

After India’s retaliatory strike, Pakistan Army corps commander visited the border area on September 26 to boost the morale of the elite unit of Pakistan Rangers trapped and hit by the BSF. Outgoing BSF DG KK Sharma had on Friday said sufficient action was taken and Narender ‘s killing was avenged on the LoC. Sharma had also said the Pakistan side had vacated five km of the area from the zero line fearing further retribution and mortar shelling from the BSF.

The retaliatory action was planned by the BSF swiftly, and “fox game” played by the Intelligence agencies, was used ahead of the action against them. In a fox game, the agencies use the communication and media platforms to hoodwink the adversary and reduce their alertness.

The casualty figures are significant especially when the BSF has not used mortar firing to retaliate against the counterpart.

“A series of fronts and posts were activated along the LoC, fox game was in full play and a successful coordinated action was executed against the adversary. All the action was executed on their (Pakistan) side of the LoC,” an official privy to the details said.

The sources also did not rule out further action against Pakistani forces.

Don't mind the kill count going up and down, be satisfied in the double digit figure. Instead focus on the content within the articles.


भारत ने एक बार फिर सर्जिकल स्ट्राइक कर पाकिस्तान से अपने जवान के साथ हुई बर्बरता का बदला ले लिया है। यह ऑपरेशन भारतीय सेना की स्पेशल फोर्स और सीमा सुरक्षा बल के विशेष कमांडो ने मिलकर किया। भारतीय टुकड़ी ने पाकिस्तानी क्षेत्र में दाखिल होकर कई बंकर तबाह कर लगभग 15 पाकिस्तानी सैनिकों को ढेर कर दिया। पाकिस्तान के खिलाफ यह कार्रवाई पहली सर्जिकल स्ट्राइक की दूसरी वर्षगांठ से ठीक पहले गुरुवार को हुई है।

According to jagran, this operation was carried out by Indian Army SF team and BSF commandos.
