A recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, which resulted in the deaths of 26 tourists, has reignited national anger and highlighted a persistent pattern of violence linked to Pakistan-based Islamist groups, notably Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). This incident, reminiscent of numerous previous attacks over the past three decades, has prompted calls for a robust response from India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed to pursue and punish those responsible, indicating that military action may be on the table. However, India's strategy is expected to encompass a mix of military, diplomatic, and internal security measures, reflecting lessons learned from past conflicts. The ongoing deterioration of India-Pakistan relations complicates the situation, with both nations mirroring each other's diplomatic actions. Ultimately, India faces the dual challenge of addressing immediate security threats while fostering long-term stability in Kashmir and maintaining international support against terrorism.
