Pakistan is necessary to Turkey for combating India

The Pakistan army is not strong enough to mess with India alone. Pakistan looks to its foreign allies whenever it anticipates an Indian attack. Meanwhile, it has also been made clear from India that wherever the Pahalgam attack terrorists are, they will be hunted and eliminated.

Indian Army gets free hand

Following the strike on Pahalgam on April 22, the Government of India has been having prolonged meetings. At the same time, the Indian Army also carried out operations in Kashmir and it is possible for such operations to be expanded from beyond the line of control too. On Tuesday, the government of India gave the army free hands and now it is allowed to attack Pakistan at will and need not even ask the government for permission regarding it.
