GREAT PSYCHOLOGICAL BOOST: The fact that IAF jets can penetrate deep into Pakistan — up to 100 km — and return safely to base without a casualty is a great game changer.
MESSAGE TO PAK: The message to Islamabad is loud and clear — that we can strike at will and with impunity.
CALLING THE N-BLUFF: Until now, the fear that a pre-emptive strike may lead to limited hostilities, which may escalate into a nuclear war was always a deterrent. That hump has been crossed.
MATURE LEADERSHIP: India has shown it has a mature leadership. Keeping global sentiment in mind, all kind of civilian casualties were avoided and only precision bombing was carried out on select targets.
IAF PROVES ITS PROWESS: It successfully deployed high-powered jammers to cripple Pakistan’s radars, proving its technical superiority.
DIPLOMATIC COUP: Modi government needs to pat itself on the back as no country has criticised India for its action which it insists on calling a ‘non-military pre-emptive strike’
