Unless you paint yourself as target you shud be fine.:p

Israel does that quite often , they nip the threat where ever they are. Second thing does Pakistan military generals have enuf resources to open/keep them safe on multiple fronts. Their strength is military muscle inside the country , outside we can use our economic power to silence them out.

Why do we need to do only one, btw.
When we can do both.
Inside Pakistan blood bath.
Outside Pakistan dollar pyres.

Who says you need assets on ground? If you are hitting them inside pakistan it need not be 'surgical'. It need to be sharp enough that enemy known that we went for the knee and not the hip. But if we cut the toe in process why do you care?

There are many ways to deliver an impulse of few mega newtons in an area of few hundred meters square. You don't need someone to lug materials. There are surely many other ways. One way I can think is to use multi barell rockets. And then deny that rockets were even fired from your territory. I am sure forces know many other ways.

Also, priority in life.
1. Life
2. Limbs
3. Whatever

Lastly, ask our resident former service folks. What an army fears the most. I believe it is mutiny of its own personnels.

What makes you think they wont respond in same way? Look any action on their eastern border will invite reaction. They can hit our ammo depot and keep quiet. Its not that they dont have options.
May be arming afghans with few battalions of MBRLS/SSM might be an option. Another option would be sizing them up on naval front where we have the numbers. Deliver few lusty blows and offer ceasefire as good will :LOL:.

Rockets are not precision guided weapons and might not be the most suitable for the current scenario, long range stand off munitions from air assets are more suitable for the said objective. Rockets are used for wide area target destruction and when collateral damage is not a concern, more suitable for a war scenario.

Regardless, a befitting response is the need of the hour. And fortunately GoI will recognise that their return to power in next term will hugely be dependent on the country's retaliation to this event.

Good Day!

We will forget this like 26/11 and move on. Nothing much will happen. There is a good reason why pakistan keeps doing it all the time.

Their recognition is important too. Its our problem that we fail miserably to do anything after they are acknowledged by UN.

No. Pakistan pays a very heavy economic price for their attitude. Reality is that if they are ready to pay the price and put their citizens to the begigng bowl for this, you can't do much.

That is their headache. Interestingly, they never had this headache before. I wonder how will they react.
Let us see if they want to keep on escalating this and till when. BTW, this will be first time when Pakistani Army will have a real skin in this game.
Also, BTW, unfortunately for Pakistan, their major cities are next to Indian border. Some even 30-40 KM away.

Rockets are a means to an end. I don't believe that India does not have means to deliver firepower precisely in a designated area. If not rocket then something else.

No, that is not the worst case scenario.
Worst case will be a war of words escalating to a real but half-arsed war with no political or military consequence. We will lose opportunity, face, and global goodwill.
Our goal should be to force Pakistan to declare war while we keep on harping about peace and only peace at the same time running a project mayhem on their targeted areas.

Yes that's what I said, long range stand off munitions from air assets. And yes we have that capability available with our frontline units.

Good Day!

Well, I am pretty confident that our forces have deniable means to deliver firepower inside Pakistan. Thats all we need to do. Deliver firepower, preach peace/diplomacy and deny any kind of military action. After all we are followers of Gandhi.

Heck we can even spin it and tell the world that America's departure from Afghanistan is emboldening terrorist to use left over weapons from Afghanistan in these nefarious acts.

And lastly, Pakistan should DO MORE to control terrorism. :)

From "Indian-administered Jammu & Kashmir" being the official terminology used as late as 2017, in today's press release condemning the attack, it has become "Indian State of Jammu & Kashmir". The US State Department's increasingly pro-Indian stance on the Kashmir issue requires reading between the lines to keep track of, the use of "Indian State" began last year if I'm right. So they're sticking with this.

Clearly mentioning Pakistan, and not calling for talks or restraint are a stride forward too. This is an open invitation to hit back if we can.
