Pakistan's tried & tested template.Don't ask for prosecution of terrorists for past terror attacks.Let's start afresh (till the next terror attack)
India has repeatedly fallen for it
1. IC 814 hijack
2. Parliament Attack
3. J&K Assembly
4. 26/11 Mumbai
5. Ind emb Kabul
Long list
#Pakistan targeted India with impunity because Indian leadership was told they are a nuclear weapon state India cannot respond. A strong pro Pak lobby played the Pak game of dialogue despite terror for peace in the sub continent. Uninterrupted & uninterruptible dialogue tamasha.
So even after 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks India did not hit back, resulting in more terror attacks. ISI tested PM @narendramodi's resolve too. Terror attacks on our consulate in Afghanistan & strikes at Pathankot, Gurdaspur... Uri & Pulwama resulted in #Surgicalstrikes & #Balakot
The #airstrikes in #Pakistan was India imposing heavy costs on Pakistan. Terror is now no longer a low cost option for Pakistan. @PMOindia is willing to bomb Pakistan to prevent terror strikes despite a nuclear overhang. @ImranKhanPTI & Pak army are on notice+ exposing Pak terror
Pakistan's nuclear bluff was exposed in #Kargil conflict. IAF should have bombed Pak supply lines & many Indian lives may have been saved but that old mindset prevented bolder action. Same mindset prevented a response post 26/11. @PMOindia exposed Pak thru #Balakot air strikes.

West Bengal CM @MamataOfficial injured. In severe pain. Foot injury. sketchy details. Swelling in the foot. A team of doctors rushes to the CM. Someone tried to push her. TMC to complain to election commission. CM wants to return to Kolkata. No local police. 4-5 people pushed her
There was no one from local police, says @MamataOfficial. Says she was intentionally pushed. Also complains of chest pain. BJP says let there be a CBI investigation. Claims this is to gain sympathy. TMC says even CM not safe & security to woman CM was inadequate. Moving 2 Kolkata
``Green Corridor'' for @MamataOfficial to be shifted to #Kolkata. Will be rushed to the hospital. BJP calls it a publicity stunt after looking at ground reality at #Nandigram. BJP's Priyanka Tibrewal says ground beneath Mamata's feet slipping. Let there be an independent probe..

Leads from 2008 #Ahmedabad blasts (57 killed) helped in identifying the perpetrators of Delhi blasts (39 killed) & led us to L-18 #BatlaHouse: @singhkarnal2, then Jt CP @DelhiPolice tells me on #IndiaFirst. @GujaratPolice tracked #IndianMujahideen. Had reported 2008 Ahd blasts🖕
In Ahmedabad blasts #IndianMujahideen terrorists had planted the 5th & the most powerful bomb at the hospital. Their aim was to kill not just injured from other blast sites but also their relatives, doctors, police etc at hospital (Yet some give intellectual cover fire to terror)
#IndianMujahideen terrorists had also planned serial blasts in #Surat. IEDs planted on trees & billboards to inflict head injuries. Fortunately the circuit was defective.100s of lives were saved. A @GujaratPolice officer had told me a special team was constituted to neutralise IM

#IndianMujahideen terrorist #ArizKhan convicted for killing brave Insp Mohan Chand Sharma & attempting to kill police officers in #BatlaHouse encounter. Delhi module of terror group was neutralized.
(Had covered the terror strikes, the encounter & the shameful politics after it) ImageImageImage
Political leaders to academics to influencers an entire ecosystem charged at the terror fighting mechanism.
Was the attempt to demoralize it? Weaken it/destroy it?
At whose behest?
Vote bank politics became more important than India's war on terror?
Every fact was ignored. Why?
How many people know Insp Mohan Chand Sharma's child was unwell & in hospital. He put #IndiaFirst. He made Supreme sacrifice of his life. And yet was vilified.The entire @DelhiPolice was. Ask @sanjeevyadav225 & @singhkarnal2 who braved every assault to keep Delhi safe from terror

20 Indian braves made Supreme sacrifice of their lives at #Galwan to push back an expansionist China at #LAC.
#China remains hostile to India.
#Maharashtra power outage blamed on Chinese hackers.
China yet to pull back from #Depsang.
Yet Rs 300 cr Telecom contract to #Huawei? ImageImage
Is this the 'whole of India' approach being adopted to deal with expansionist forces?
Why continue to give access to China in critical areas like Telecom?
Even if central Govt is to be believed China didn't succeed in #Maharashtra power outage, attempts were made? Even in Delhi
Soldiers make the supreme sacrifice for a strong nation.
Can business & industry not sacrifice profits for a strong nation?
Is this the whole of nation approach to deal with China?
Is this #Atmanirbhar #Bharat?
Profits more important than national interest?
#IndiaFirst always

We are not only the world's largest but also the most vibrant #democracy. And do we need certification from some western organization?
We live in a noisy vibrant democracy. @PMOIndia/Govt are being criticized openly & freely on issues on TV, in print, on digital & social media.
India has strong & free courts of law. India has constitutional bodies & a vibrant press.
India does not & should not need certification on freedom. Vested interests may try to pull India down, but India must constantly work to strengthen economy, society, military & stand tall.
We must remain a democracy & not descend into chaos & anarchy.
Calling for breaking a country is not democracy but an attempt to create anarchy. The law must step in & take its own course.
Farmers forced the government to bring about multiple amendment & rightfully so. #democracy

1 China pulls back from Southern Pangong Tso
2 China retreats beyond Finger 8.
In Pangong Tso Apr 2020 situation being restored.
3 Now waiting for clarity on other friction points in Ladakh.
4 Depsang predates April 2020.
5 China occupies 40000+ sqkm of Ind territory since 1950s
Veterans on social media can enlighten us better but I am told:
1. Indian post was at Finger 3 (Dhan Singh Thapa post) itself
2. We tried to patrol till our claim line Finger 8. There was resistance by PLA.
3. PLA tried to patrol till Finger 4 own Tps went from 3 & stopped them.
Indian Army checkmated China at Kailash ranges & has other aces up its sleeve. China has realized India will no longer permit Chinese transgressions.
Temp halt in patrolling is to calm the situation down.
India China stand off/tensions will continue either in Ladakh or elsewhere
