Indian para
military commandos of the Special Forces crossed LoC and killed 42 terrorist
along with 9 Pakistani Army men. They had also destroyed 7 launch pads of terrorists
in Pakistan. This is the first time that India has shown courage something like
killing the terrorists on their own abode. The credit is given to the political
leadership of India led by the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The operation
also reflects the will and shrewd planning of two persons – National Security
Ajit Doval and Director General of Military Operation Ranbir Singh. Both of
them are trusted advisor of Narendra Modi. Ranbir Singh is also regarded as
eyes and ears of the Prime Minister when it comes to dealing with Pakistan.
