India counters terrorism with decisive action on Pakistani soil. The Guardian sheds light on a secret operation targeting 'enemies' one by one in Pakistan. The report alleges the Indian government has ordered the elimination of terrorists within Pakistan. A comprehensive strategy is said to have been crafted by the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) of India, implementing a tactical initiative on Pakistani territory, following the Pulwama attack in 2019.
The Guardian highlighted discussions between Indian and Pakistani intelligence officials, revealing a daring stance on national security adopted by RAW post-Pulwama, along with documentation shared by Pakistani investigators.
The intelligence agency is reported to be directly controlled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s office, with operations targeting perceived threats to India.
Washington and Ottawa have accused India of targeted killings, including a Sikh terrorist, systematically eliminating India's enemies since 2020. However, India vehemently denies such actions, branding the allegations as malicious propaganda.
Britain’s newspaper claims to have seen documents indicating RAW's involvement in these killings. It suggests a calculated endeavor to dismantle the Khalistan movement's Sikh separatists, extending operations across Pakistan and western nations.
Following the Pulwama attack, RAW intensified efforts to neutralize adversaries abroad, with the event profoundly affecting the government's approach to foreign-based threats. The operation required the highest level of governmental approval, exemplifying the serious nature of India's counter-terrorism strategy.
India gains inspiration from renowned agencies like Israel's Mossad and Russia's KGB, with a focus on curtailing threats beyond its borders. Citing the Jamal Khashoggi case, officials debate effective measures adopted by the Saudis, which can set a global precedent.
Amid rising suspicions, Pakistani intelligence points fingers at India for a spate of recent killings, with data and witness testimonies supporting their concerns.
While India condemns the accusations as per the Ministry of External Affairs, emphasizing its non-involvement in foreign assassinations, the reported increase in such incidents in 2023 has stirred international debate.
