Following a rare cross-border attack conducted by the Indian Army in Myanmar, India’s Junior Minister for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore said that based on intelligence “we will carry out surgical strikes at the place and time of our own choosing”.
“Western disturbances will also be equally dealt with,” the information minister said during a press briefing on Wednesday when asked if attacks could be carried out on the western (Pakistan) border, according to a report published on IBNLive.
The statements came after the minister lauded the Indian Army and Air Force for their operation in Myanmar that killed 20 suspected militants on Tuesday.
“Our PM ordered hot pursuit in which two camps were completely annihilated. While the army carried out the strike, helicopters were on stand-by,” he said.
Rathore asserted that attacks on Indians are unacceptable and based on effective intelligence. The minister added that the operations were a message for all neighbours of India who harbour terror groups.
“Friendship and zero tolerance will go hand in hand. This is a beginning. India is strong. This message should go to everyone,” he said.
The minister also hinted that the operation against Myanmar’s northeast militants has altered India’s strategy in dealing with such groups.
“I think it was the need of the hour as well, the entire nation wanted it and that’s perhaps a reason why they voted a strong government at the Centre. It had become like a habit [for terrorists]. It is not like a ‘kushti’ match that if you go back into your area nobody will catch you. This message is very critical that we will strike you wherever you are,” he said.
Rathore referred to the surgical strike inside Myanmar as an “unprecedented” and “extremely bold” step by the Indian government.
“Myanmar is a friendly nation and therefore there was complete cooperation, if the need required” Rathore said when asked whether the operation had support of the Myanmar government and army. The minister added that the operation was carried out by the Special Forces “entirely on their own”.

Outr leadership might also want to inform the Indian government that any adventures on the western front will invite massive retaliation upto and including nuclear retaliation.. Please try and inform these people that the eqation vis a vis Pakistan has changed fundamentally, and to re assess their strategy to suit or will look at devastation they have not even dreamed about.
