"undoubtedly it was a terrorist plot, had they been smugglers, they would have surrendered. Motivation to blow one up is only among terrorists."
The fabricated terrorist plot was exposed when the Indian Coast Guard DIG BK Loshali contradicted the government's version of events in connection with the interception of the boat and said the Indian Navy had itself blown up the boat, which had not been exploded by the alleged suicide attackers. "Let me tell you. I hope you remember 31st December night. We blew off that Pakistan... We have blown them off. I was there at Gandhinagar and I told at night, blow the boat off. We don't want to serve them Biryani," Loshali had crowed in the video. Subsequently, he was removed as the Chief of Staff in Northwest region and attached to Indian Coast Guard's zonal headquarters. Loshali is now facing court martial proceedings after being indicted by a Board of Inquiry.
Also, on July 27, 2015 three gunmen opened fire on a bus in the Indian Punjab and then stormed a police station in a town called Dinanagar. The attack led to the death of three civilians and four policemen and injured 15 others. Among the dead was a superintendent police besides the alleged three attackers. The shootout between the Indian armed forces and the attackers continued for about 12 hours. It was the first such attack in the Indian Punjab since the mid-1990s when an insurgency was running in the state for setting up the independent state of Khalistan. It was a wacky plot with no head and tail. Nevertheless, Indian authorities were quick to blame Pakistan.
It seems that stage-managed operations by the Indians are becoming a manipulated tactic to blame Pakistan. While such activities allow them to extract every morsel of propaganda, it is an investment that is amateurish and inevitably backfires sooner or later. It moreover shows that the Modi government has limited powers of comprehension and deduction. The Modi Sarkar is also rather slow to learn and adapt.
