Even though the Indian Army had repeatedly war-gamed attacks by Pakistan since at least 1956, Lieutenant General Harbaksh Singh said the Pakistani offensive in 1965 caught it completely off-guard.
In interview with Bloomberg TV, CDS terms Pakistan’s claim it shot down 6 IAF aircraft ‘absolutely incorrect’; tells Reuters IAF ‘flew all types of aircraft with all types of ordinances on 10 May’.
CDS Gen Anil Chauhan noted that while Pakistan may have leveraged Chinese commercial satellite imagery, there is no proof of real-time targeting support.
In latest editions of its newsletter ‘Baatcheet’, the Indian Army also names the creators of the Operation Sindoor logo – Lt Col Harish Gupta and Havildar Surinder Singh.
In his new book, CDS emphasises that India secures itself through policy & structure, not a written NSS document. Israel never released a formal NSS, he mentions.
A meeting at the PM's residence took place Saturday, with Rajnath Singh, Jaishankar, Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, Chief of Defence Staff Gen Anil Chauhan among others in attendance.
SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
Many really smart people now share the position that playing cricket with Pakistan is politically, strategically and morally wrong. It is just a poor appreciation of competitive sport.
A vicious article written with pure malice. The opposition has every right to question the government- but only to cry over and count the losses without appreciating the huge success of the mission is both bad politics and optics. The Congress should remember that no government comes out to admit the losses, anywhere in the world. And there is no need to. When a defeated country celebrates victory, why should we keep crying over the losses except for an internal audit which the government and the armed forces would anyway be doing already?
Amitabh Dubey is promoting the impotent Congress way to beg in front of United Nations with dossiers when terrorists kill civilians in your city. What did Manmohan Singh do? Also if you conducted 6 surgical strikes like your party says where is the proof? Why not tell the people of India where you spent their money and their soldiers lives on? Why were we not informed then? Or do you believe Indians should just continue to believe your lies?
I would like to see an article by Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi, instead of these paid ghost writers. Let us see in writing what they stand for? So we can hold them accountable. They can always hide by suspending and sidelining people like Dubey
Mr Dubey, your ridiculous logic is that India shud not fight a war like op Sindoor because it will result in significant costs to India! Sir did we not fight a war in 1947,62,65,71 and 1999. I am sorry but are u unaware that we had significant losses even then. Sorry my mistake all except 1 was fought during congress govt. That’s right military losses did not matter at that time!
Your selfishness of putting yourself or your party before the country and its armed forces is amply demonstrated by your desire to get information on our losses before a ceasefire. Did u ever hear the ISPR talk of their losses before the ceasefire?
Honestly u seem to want to support Pak narrative of making it about air combat between Rafale and JF-17 / J10 rather than India avenging Pahalgam and as a bonus hitting at least 11 of their air bases and hitting 9 terror bases.
Don’t know what your situational awareness or cerebral capacity is (doesn’t seem to be anything to be proud of), but since when do victors in a conflict sue for ceasefire and peace.
Ceasefire happened only because Pak was getting hammered irrespective of whether PAF downed a few IAF aircraft. Any further escalation on their part would have resulted in much heavier Pak losses affecting civilian population and decimation of the Punjabi military egos with no answer as none of their nuke red lines would have been impacted.
If u aren’t able to understand that much then please don’t display your ignorance in Print. Doesn’t serve u or your beleaguered party.
Dear Amitabh ,
Regardless of whether india lost a jet or not this current govt showed more spine than UPA1/UPA2 . Made us chuckle with your hot takes on this
