Earlier in September, Indian army chief said time was ripe for 'another surgical strike’ on ‘terror launch pads’ across the LoC.



“I believe there is a need for one more action (surgical strike). But I will not disclose how we intend to go about it,” Bipin Rawat had said during an interview.

In 2016, India claimed to have carried out ‘surgical strikes’ on ‘terror launch pads across the LoC following an attack on a military base. Categorically rejecting Indian claims, Pakistan announced to have captured an Indian soldier the same day.
