Being on permanent guard is the price we now have to pay to stay secure from the shenanigans of Pakistan. Though a ceasefire has been declared between the two countries, it will be premature for our defence forces to rest easy. Umpteen times in the past Pakistan has resorted to pushing in jihadis to achieve its avowed policy of bleeding India through a thousand cuts. Why, just three hours after the cessation of hostilities, Pakistan sent in armed drones to terrorise people in J&K. The jihadis are an expendable asset for the Pak army, if one mercenary falls ten will rise in his place. The jihad factory will be churning out more fighters now in double quick time, the recent annihilation of Pakistan at the hands of India has dealt a body blow to the ego of their army generals. They will be looking for another opportunity to wreak mayhem on India. Our defence systems have to be locked and loaded 24×7 to neutralize a rogue adversary, sometimes the Damocles sword of war is the only way to ensure peace.
