Following a terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, tensions have soared between India and Pakistan. Pakistan finds itself in turmoil due to India's perceived actions. Consequently, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar held a press conference around 1:30 AM, alleging that credible intelligence suggests India could launch a military offensive within 24 to 36 hours.
This statement surfaced just as PM Modi granted the armed forces a free hand to deal a decisive blow against terror, thereby ensuring justice for those involved in the Pahalgam attack that claimed 26 lives.
