New Delhi: If reports are to be believed, Pathankot was the price that India paid due to Nawaz Sharif-Modi bonhomie, that did not go well with the Pakistan Army Chief Raheel Sharif and Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
As per sources, the plot to attack the Pathankot Air Force base was hatched in Rawalpindi and Zee TV reports that the aim of the attack is to derail the peace process initiated by PM Modi and vitiate the current bilateral relations.
“It is also to increase tension between the two nations so that the upcoming foreign secretary-level talks get cancelled,” reports Zee News.
It is said that Pakistan Army had instructed the JeM militants to carry out attacks outside Jammu and Kashmir and also to take the blame after the execution of the plot.
The Pathankot attack on Saturday left seven Indian security personnel dead. A combing operation launched by the Indian security forces in the area is still on.
