Hafiz Saeed, chief of to Jamaat-Ud-Dawah , an Islamic charity linked to out sawed militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba (Let) has said that New Delhi staged "surgical strike" drama following domestic pressure on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to retaliate after 19 soldiers were killed in an attack on an army base in Uri sector in Jammu and Kashmir.
"They (some people in India) started asking that 'you had said that you would attack Pakistan, you would do a surgical strike'. Everyone who was in grip of this fever started asking Modi and the Indian government. For this Ajit Doval staged a drama. He made up a surgical strike drama while sitting indoors," Saeed said.
Saeed was of the opinion that no raid was actually carried out by the Indian troops.
"The whole film was made in which this surgical drama was shown in which they said their 150 expert paratroopers, after crossing the control line and entering Pakistan, carried out a raid. Actually, no raid was carried out, neither in Bhimber nor in Lipa, Chamb and dudhnial," he added.
Indian Army on Wednesday said that it conducted surgical strikes on terror launch pads across the Line of Control (LoC) in response to the terrorist attack at Uri sector.
