Pahalgam Terror attack: Military action against Pakistan should not be missed: Shashi Tharoor

Pahalgam Terror attack: Congress MP and former diplomat Shashi Tharoor reacted to the Pahalgam attack in Jammu and Kashmir. In some formAn open military response is inevitable.He said. Pakistan's behavior has been the same for the last half a century, and despite training and arming terrorists across the border, Pakistan always denies any involvement in attacks in India, Tharoor criticized. It is clear that terrorists are being encouraged, trained, armed and sometimes guided from across the border. Then Pakistan says it has no responsibility. Ultimately, Pakistan's role will be proven in the investigations of everyone, including foreign intelligence agencies, he said.

This time we're going to see more than just those two.

After Uri, there were surgical strikes, after Pulwama, there were Balakot airstrikes. I think we are going to see more than those two this time. Although we have many avenues before us, such as diplomatic, economic, intelligence sharing, covert and overt actions, some kind of overt military response is inevitable, said MP Tharoor. Tharoor recalled that the Indian government had taken retaliatory measures after the Uri attacks in 2016 and Pulwama attacks in 2019. He said that after the Uri attack, there were surgical strikes across the border, and after the Pulwama attack, there were airstrikes on Balakot. The country wants and expects this. No one knows what that response will be, where it will be, when it will be. But I am sure that there will be some kind of response , Tharoor said.

If blood flows, it will be more on their side than on ours.

Pakistanis should understand that Indians cannot be killed with impunity. We do not want to do anything to Pakistanis. But if they do anything, we should be ready to respond. If blood flows, it is likely to flow more towards them than towards us, said Tharoor. Tharoor also responded to Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari's "blood will flow" remarks on India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said it was just a provocative speech.
