Surgical strikes from the Indian camp may have been symbolic but Pakistan today looks shaken and on the back foot as it gets to taste its own bitter medicine. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif hurriedly makes a media statement that Pakistan does not want a war but he cannot be trusted as his country has back tracked on several occasions in the past. The Indian army is doing the right thing by targeting terrorist camps which has the support of the Pakistani armed forces. One tight blow and Pakistan has suddenly realized that terrorism is bad and has now started talking about progress and development. The channel of peace dialogues with Pakistan should remain open but targeting terrorist camps across the border should continue. Most countries the world over are affected by terror and India should lead a consortium of world nations to wipe out terror from world map. Billions of crores of rupees are spent on defence by most countries and this fund can be diverted to save environment, for development and fighting diseases. Big daddy India I am sure will teach an stern lesson to Pakistan and people of our great nation should be firmly behind Prime Minister Modi in his mission ‘Abhiyan’ (task) of finishing terrorism from the world!
