New Delhi: Multiple intelligence reports indicate India has strengthened its surveillance of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Saeed because Pakistan-India relations have reached an all-time high following the Pahalgam massacre. Saeed, along with other vital terrorists, has been relocated to secure facilities across Pakistan because authorities expect potential Indian retribution. Pakistan’s panic suggests, through its frantic security efforts, that India makes them feel extremely unsettled because of their forthcoming actions.
Indian intelligence traced the mastermind behind the April 22 Pahalgam attackat killed 26 dead people to Saeed during their investigation of the LeT link. Top LeT figures, including Saeed, Lakhvi, and Muzammil, have been transferred to hidden locations by the Pakistani military intelligence along with ISI because they expect either a repeat of Balakot-style attacks or targeted assassinations in the near future. India’s aerial bans against Pakistani aircraft flights caused major financial damage to Pakistani air carriers because they require longer routes, resulting in higher operating costs, and reveal New Delhi’s economic strategy aimed at punishing Pakistani terrorist support. India demonstrates its commitment to stopping Pakistan from supporting terrorism through both airspace restrictions and the expulsion of military personnel.
The pacific death of LeT operative Abu Qatal in Pakistan led sources to speculate about Indian involvement even though New Delhi officially denied such allegations. Despite worldwide international pressure, Pakistan continues supporting and shielding UN-designated terrorist leader Saeed, who holds a US $10 million bounty. The military forces of India received the green light for total operational flexibility from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which fuelled anxiety about surgical attacks from the Pakistani government. The increased Indian counterterrorism activities lead to a growing question about whether the terrorist Saeed’s secure facility will become his permanent hiding place.
