Firstly, through accusing Pakistan, India is seeking to justify its shortcomings and inefficiencies during operations in the so-called Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This tactic not only brands Pakistan as an aggressor but also rationalizes India’s alleged assistance to militancy in the disputed territory.
Further, the Indian government wants to garner domestic support on nationalist and patriotic grounds at the same time as it wants to foster an international perception and diplomatic milieu against Pakistan. This coordinated disinformation campaign is evident of New Delhi’s efforts to camouflage its own wrongdoings and the operational blunders of the Indian armed forces. The kind of selective reporting and framing exemplified here underscore how far India will go to hide its problems at home by focusing on Pakistan and blaming it for every wrong turn.
