Srinagar: Political analysts and defence experts have rejected Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh\u2019s assertion that Pakistan was forced to seek a ceasefire within four days of Operation Sindoor, saying the claim is aimed at masking India\u2019s military and diplomatic setbacks.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Rajnath Singh, while releasing a commemorative volume on Operation Sindoor in New Delhi, claimed that India had compelled Pakistan to seek a ceasefire and described the operation as an \u201cunprecedented success.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, analysts said the events surrounding the May 2025 conflict tell a different story. They maintained that despite India\u2019s efforts to isolate Pakistan internationally, Islamabad emerged with enhanced diplomatic standing following the conflict, particularly through its growing engagement with major powers and its role in facilitating regional diplomacy.<\/p>\n
They said even several Indian political leaders, former officials and military figures have acknowledged the need for dialogue with Pakistan, reflecting the failure of New Delhi\u2019s confrontational approach.<\/p>\n
The analysts noted that calls for engagement and people-to-people contact have gained momentum within India itself, undermining the government\u2019s narrative of military triumph.<\/p>\n
The observers further stated that India\u2019s repeated attempts to project military operations as decisive victories cannot conceal the reality that the Kashmir dispute remains unresolved and continues to pose a challenge to peace and stability in South Asia.<\/p>\n
They emphasized that lasting peace in the region can only be achieved through meaningful dialogue and a just resolution of the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
