Defending the PM from the narrative of the North Korean news channels. Asking them how many times will they say he has a given them a free hand, whatever that means.

India's 'North Korean' news channels need to seriously stop reporting PM Modi has given a "free hand" to the military. Didn't he give a "free hand" just after Pulwama? How many times do you have to give a "free hand" to make it free?

If I'd filed a copy saying 300 patients are dead, from an unnamed disease, w/o any proof- & a day later BBC/Reuters found only 1 death.. i'd be jobless the next day. Not these nincompoops.

Dear , rather than let other countries get involved & claim the credit why don’t you send back without it seeming to be done under international pressure. Statesmanship is better than brinkmanship for peace in the region.

Wing Commander Varthaman was on Operational Readiness Platform (ORP). Scrambled his MiG21 Bison when IAF detected incoming Pakistani jets. His aircraft was hit and ended up on the wrong side of the LoC while chasing back PAF fighters.

Looks like the Pakistan Air Force raid was carried out by JF-17s. The first operational use of the Chinese-made fighters, according to Pakistani sources.

Pakistan now claims two Indian pilots arrested. One is injured and has been admitted to the Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi

Claims of arresting Indian pilot *could* be wrong. Extremely embarrassing for Pakistan for making a false claim.

Forget the Hanoi handshakes, two nuclear armed states are shooting down each other’s jets.

Important clarification coming in. No MiG 21 shot down by Pakistan. Still awaiting clarity on claims of Indian pioot being arrested. Pakistan papers showing images of downed IAF aircraft are old and probably from a crash in Jodhpur years ago.

After 19 soldiers killed in Chandel, 19 soldiers in Uri, 40 policemen in Pulwama, and many others in Sunjawan, Nagrota etc, I think reality should seep in. MHA figures in Parliament show highest losses of Indian security forces in four years.

Unconfirmed reports coming in that an Indian MiG 21 has been shot down. This needs be treated with caution. Waiting for confirmation on Indian pilot's arrest.
