As the nation grapples with the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, one question on everyone’s mind is: will the Indian government’s robust response have a lasting impact on Pakistan?
To this, former Indian Ambassador, Ajay Bisaria, has a clear answer. In an exclusive interview with IndiaFlash, he explained that the government’s decisive measures will indeed have far-reaching consequences for Pakistan.
Context: The Pahalgam Terror Attack
The Pahalgam terror attack, which left several civilians dead and injured, was a stark reminder of the ongoing threat posed by terrorist groups operating from across the border. The Indian government’s swift response, which included targeted strikes on terrorist camps and infrastructure, has been widely praised by experts and citizens alike.
However, the question on everyone’s mind is whether this response will be enough to deter Pakistan from its continued support for terrorism. Ambassador Bisaria believes that the government’s actions will indeed have a lasting impact on Pakistan, but it will depend on how effectively the government can sustain the pressure.
‘The government’s response has been quite strong, and it’s clear that they’re not going to tolerate any further incursions into Indian territory,’ Ambassador Bisaria said. ‘However, the key question is whether they can sustain this pressure over time. Pakistan has a history of backing down when faced with international pressure, but it’s also a country that’s not easily intimidated.’
Ambassador Bisaria pointed out that the Indian government’s response has already sent a strong signal to Pakistan that India will not tolerate any further aggression. ‘The message that’s gone out is clear: we’re not going to take this lying down. We’re going to take action, and we’re going to take action decisively.’
He also highlighted the importance of international support in this regard. ‘The international community has to play a role in this. They have to make it clear to Pakistan that this behavior will not be tolerated. We need countries like the US, the UK, and others to make it clear that support for terrorism will not be tolerated.’
So, what does this mean for Pakistan? Ambassador Bisaria believes that the country will face significant consequences if it continues to support terrorism. ‘If Pakistan continues to back terrorist groups, it will face international isolation, economic sanctions, and possibly even military action.’
The Road Ahead

Ambassador Bisaria believes that the key to sustaining this pressure lies in international cooperation. ‘We need the international community to come together and make it clear to Pakistan that this behavior will not be tolerated.’
He also highlighted the importance of economic sanctions in this regard. ‘Economic sanctions can be a powerful tool in deterring Pakistan from its continued support for terrorism. We need to work with other countries to impose sanctions on Pakistan, particularly in areas like trade and finance.’
In conclusion, the Indian government’s response to the Pahalgam terror attack has been a robust one, and it’s clear that they’re not going to tolerate any further incursions into Indian territory. However, the question on everyone’s mind is whether this response will be enough to deter Pakistan from its continued support for terrorism.
