The recent terrorist attack in Pulwama on 22 April 2025 is deeply tragic and condemnable. The loss of innocent lives and the threat to national security highlight the need for a firm, strategic, and united response from the Indian government and its people. Here are key steps the Indian government could take to address this issue and manage tensions with Pakistan:
🔍 1. Thorough Investigation & Accountability
NIA (National Investigation Agency) and intelligence agencies should conduct a comprehensive probe to identify perpetrators and their network.
Collect evidence linking the attackers to any groups across the border, if applicable, to present at international forums.
🌐 2. International Diplomacy & Pressure
Engage with UN, US, EU, and other global powers to isolate terror sponsors diplomatically.
Provide clear, documented proof of any cross-border involvement to seek global condemnation and action.
Push for sanctions or FATF (Financial Action Task Force) restrictions on countries supporting terrorism.
🛡️ 3. Strengthen Security and Intelligence
Increase surveillance and intelligence-sharing among Indian states and defense sectors.
Deploy advanced technology like drones, satellite monitoring, and AI-based threat detection.
Enhance border security and fencing in vulnerable areas.
⚔️ 4. Strategic Military Preparedness
Maintain a high state of readiness along the Line of Control (LoC).
Consider retaliatory or targeted counter-terror operations if credible evidence emerges.
Avoid full-scale war; focus on precision actions to dismantle terror camps.
🧠 5. Internal Unity & Resilience
Promote national unity and avoid communal polarization or internal unrest.
Support families of martyrs with compensation, benefits, and public honor.
Launch a public awareness campaign against terrorism and for national solidarity.
🗞️ 6. Control Disinformation & Media Narrative
Monitor and counter fake news or hate speech that could escalate tensions.
Promote responsible journalism and brief the media regularly with verified facts.
💼 7. Engage in Controlled Talks
If Pakistan shows willingness, initiate dialogue with conditions focused on anti-terror cooperation.
Emphasize that talks and terror cannot go hand-in-hand, setting clear preconditions.
