This development comes just a day after Arun Shourie, criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the launch of a book on Kashmir written by Congress leader Saifuddin Soz, called the surgical strike “farzical (fake) strike".
Talking to Times Now, Lieutenant General (retired) D S Hooda, the then Northern Army Commander in-charge of the surgical strike, said that the operation was being monitored from a control room in Udhampur, headquarters of Indian Army's strategic Northern Command.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.

The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
