Why Pak terrorists are targeting Jammu & why 2016 surgical strike was special : Gen (R) D S Hooda

In this episode of #TheTribuneInterview, The Tribune’s editor in chief Jyoti Malhotra spoke to the former army commander of the Northern Command, Lt Gen (Retd) Deepinder Hooda on why so many Indian army soldiers are dying in Hindu-majority Jammu, why the arc of terror has moved from Muslim-majority Kashmir valley. Gen Hooda also spoke for the first time publicly on the 2016 “surgical strikes” across the LoC when the Indian army targeted 5 terrorist camps inside Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir

We will never leave you alone to rise until you give agadir to our brothers Kashmiri people
Keep this in mind

[amvedin]

Incentivize Pakistan to not send terrorist in India? What idiocy is that? I think that the general is showing the first signs of the onset of dementia. It could also be his new found faith in the congress party. If I didn't respect him, I would say that he wagging the tail for nothing.

Every suggestion Mr. Hooda Gave was around 10 years ago . Not, earlier than that . Bcoz, 10 years ago everything was good . And all the bad things were happened in the last 10 years . Before that sab changa si .

Indian state has been in denial mode everytime. Gen hooda is mistaken in understanding the peculiar situations now. Jammu was and has been at the brunt every time. Be it terror, economy, development, governance and every thing bits and pieces Jammu has always neglected by one and all. None of the govt actually tried to strengthen Jammu region. We have been taken for granted and now this is the situation we r in... Sad state of Indian state.

Jyoti, you do your own podcasts; that should satisfy your urge to talk. Let the guests talk and complete their points before throwing in own pearls of wisdom

[vsinha]

Its so depressing to hear from the general that we need more locks and protection in our house...i dount any border can be secured ...its time to offensive and not be defensive each time....we indians say Pakistan economy is devastatwd but dont have guts to attack them..

[bahbahteilang]

Why don't this lady just keep her mouth shut and let him explain smoothly

[vijayasaraswathy]

Incentivising a country or a terrorist outfit to not carry out its terrorising activity is extremely dangerous.The oct 7 attack by hamas in israel happened inspite of the incentives that israel provided.So no incentives.weshould not be lambs in front of terrorist and terrorist governments.

[shinedas]

This man after retirement never missed a chance to back stab army and govt. Again Amit Shah"s reactive rather than proactive policy.

[sadiqmalik]

You guys lied about most of the facts, you are an occupation force, you are facing an indigenous freedom movement of kashmiri people, people are sacrificing for a nobal cause

[dpfrmhell]

Jyoti has the habit of interrupting guests 😟😟

[kuldipguleria]

Good to hear Gen Hooda. He is a man with a balanced cool head, not given to hyperbole. Cool heads are always better tha hot heads.

[myfeedback]

The interview is about present attacks. And, she is discussing 2016.

[ullahsami]

One of the best generals who served in kashmir,

[skw-jf]

Was reminded of AS Dulat with this conversation

[pareshprajapati]

Gen (R) d s Hooda is best at answering questions... After surgical strikes, air strikes... He was aked so many technical questions... But he answered so well. No one can read his face, whats in his mind.

[subububu]

Jyoti talking about old things which was amply published and publicized.

[sanjayraina]

wonderful conversation. Gen. Hooda is very matured and brilliant person. Jai hind sir

[getevennow]

Mutual commercial pacifism and strategic empathy between India and Pakistan can change history

[mohindersagoch]
