India is going to witness mega-elections in coming months on a huge scale. What is going to be Indian prime minister Narendra Modi's strategy? It is quite unfortunate that he is still spreading hatred against Pakistan despite a discernable easing in tensions between the two countries. He is selling hatred because he seeks his re-election. Little does he however know that Pakistan does not want atmosphere of fear but the country is ready to respond with full force to any aggression. The downing of two Indian warplanes by PAF pilots is a strong case in point. Modi is now therefore required to understand that Pakistan has no intention to initiate war, but it will respond with full force to full spectrum threat. In other words, Pakistan doesn't have any plans to go to war but it has the right to respond if war is imposed on it. It is quite clear that the incumbent BJP government is fully aware of the fact that Pakistan is not involved in any way, means or form in the Pulwama attack, yet it is finding it difficult to say the truth.
