Hold your horses friend and please correct some very important fact before moving ahead.
MI or SF would NEVER EVER carryout a response interms of a localised RAID on a near by enemy post if the Govt DOES NOT DESIRE. And i wish i could elaborate on that matter giving you examples where the Armys hand were tired ( Congress Raaj), Today a local commander be it at a Section level or at the Corps HQ would do what he thinks is best as per the situation ( Modi Sarkar).
Then your narrative that " Surgical Strikes have not achieved anything" is based on a air bubble which will burst. I will give you a basic example and i am sure
@Mikesingh sir would second me, before SS the pakis were so chillaxed in thier life at the post that their was hardly anyone manning it properly during day and night ( double sentries are deployed, which they did not as the fear of god was not their) but once the balloon went up so did the basic drills.
Till SS the pakis had always predicted our responce and Kadi ninda, but today !! Mashallah they cant even predict our next shot.
SS has dented and punctured the very heart of their FALSE BRAVADO, THAT HINDU BANINYA FAUJ DOES NOT HAVE THE BALLS TO RETALIATE. And that Gentleman is VICTORY.
