Indian false-flag operations
WHENEVER elections are around be it state or central, false-flag operation and Pakistan bashing are the only feasible option for hawkish Indian political parties and leaders such as Modi’s BJP to win with clear margin.
Indian nationalist Hindu pundits always suggest strengthening of anti-Pakistan narrative (over flimsy grounds) to garner support of extremist Hindu voters.
Unfortunately, this hawkish approach has been used since ages by Indian political parties and surprisingly, they are getting favourable results.
On the other hand, Modi’s BJP has done nothing constructive for the Indian economy and masses.
So, it has been using Pakistan bashing and false-flag operations as a policy/political tool.
The incumbent Indian Establishment (amalgamation of Hardliner Hindu fanatics) has also been using this self-created anti-Pakistan narrative to accomplish political, economic and strategic objectives.
Likewise, Hindu zealots are helping BJP to cement its traditional Hindutva approach to accomplish its political objectives, especially to get clear majority in state elections, which are due to be held later this year.
Unfortunately, this entire process has politicized Indian Armed Forces as well, and now, they are also party to all this political fuss created by Premier Modi and other Hindu fanatics.
Indian Premier has extensively been using armed forces for political engineering to get electoral mileage.
Similarly, Pakistan has suffered a lot due to fake Indian Media campaign.Owing to India’s falsified propaganda campaigns – along with disinformation campaigns and diplomatic efforts – Pakistan was placed on the FATF grey list.
From Tamil separatist movements to Pulwama attack, India staged different so-called false-flag operations for political edge domestically and internationally.
The Mumbai attacks were also India’s staged operation to divert attention of Indian masses from deteriorating economic situation of the country.
Same thing happened in Pulwama when Premier Modi’s BJP killed dozens of its soldiers for political edge in Lok Sabha elections in 2019.
The target of the Indian false-flag operation had always been Pakistan.The successive Indian governments have been accusing Pakistan of perpetrating and nurturing terrorists across the Line of Control.
It, however, has failed to prove its self-created narratives.While using armed forces for political edge, India has downgraded its own security forces internationally.
Many renowned international journalists, writers and leaders have openly spoken against nationalist designs of Indian leaders by using armed forces for the purpose.
But, the process is still going on under the ambit of warmongering Indian Establishment.
Likewise, Pakistan vehemently denied Indian accusation by presenting actual facts and figures.
It has also given some dossiers to the United Nations regarding the involvement of India in fuelling terrorism across the country and supporting insurgent groups against Pakistan.
All this is a well-known fact which cannot be denied and overlooked.The sole objective of these flimsy Indian accusations is to tarnish soft-image of Pakistan.
Even Indian judges (in (Judgement in Chittisinghpura Massacre 2000) had exposed their government’s heinous intentions against Pakistan.
So, all this self-created anti-Pakistan policy of India cannot be ignored.The fact is that India won’t shy from killing its own people for political and strategic objectives.
The recent killing of civilians in Jammu and Kashmir, Assam, Manipur, Delhi, Punjab and other states have practically exposed Indian government’s brutalities against defenceless civilians by using its armed forces.
Blaming Pakistan over flimsy grounds for every terrorist attack and unrest in India and Kashmir has become policy tool of New Delhi.
Indian political and military leaders levelled allegations against Pakistan without knowing the facts.
Owing to the India’s hostile approach towards Pakistan, now is the right time for international community, organizations and states to come out and hold India accountable for killing innocent civilians and staging false-flag operations against Pakistan for political mileage.
The world must impose sanctions on top Indian military and political leaders who are involved in these crimes.
The international community must uphold its stance on human rights and press Indian leaders to ensure fundamental rights of people, especially the minorities.
This process of Pakistan bashing by Indian leaders won’t stop in near future because of crucial state elections where BJP is facing tough opposition this time.
To garner electoral support, BJP once again may use option of false-flag operation against Pakistan.
In this regard, Prime Minister Imran Khan and Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi rightly sensitized the international community regarding the possible Indian false-flag operation against Pakistan.
PM Imran Khan sensitized the international community that India will be given a befitting response if it is reckless enough to carry out a false-flag operation against Pakistan.
Now, it is responsibility of the international community and organizations to play their role and stop India from taking harmful steps, which will have serious repercussions for the region and destroy the balance of power.
India’s offensive postures for political victory may trigger full-fledged conflict between the two nuclear armed states.
However, it is pertinent to mention here that any Indian misadventure against Pakistan will be given similar response by Pakistani forces.
Indian actions are also jeopardizing regional economic cooperation.Therefore, the world must stop India from politicising the armed forces and taking any action against Pakistan for mere political mileage.
