PM Modi tweets for Pak flood, Shehbaz Sharif trembles over Kashmir

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif responded irrationally to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s straightforwardly sympathetic tweet about the devastation caused by floods in Pakistan in an effort to gain political advantage over Imran Khan Niazi and placate the domestic public over Jammu and Kashmir pipedreams.

Even though the highest echelons of the Narendra Modi administration have confirmed that India did not offer Pakistan any assistance or food exports after more than a thousand people died in floods, PM Shehbaz Sharif connected the nonexistent offer with standard Kashmir propaganda, such as the repeal of articles 370 and 35 A and minority rights.

PM Modi tweeted on Monday that he was saddened by the destruction brought on by the floods in Pakistan and expressed his condolences while expressing hope for an early return to normalcy. Miftah Ismail, the prime minister of Pakistan, then suo moto declared that his nation should think about importing vegetables and other food goods from India to help its citizens deal with the widespread loss of crops by flash floods. After making this assertion, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif immediately launched into his regular tirade against the Narendra Modi administration. The general elections are scheduled for next year, and PTI Chief Imran Khan gave a strong street speech. Therefore, PM Sharif exploited Kashmir misinformation to placate his domestic constituency despite there being no offer to Pakistan.

Since the 2016 attack on the Pathankot air base by Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists based in Bahawalpur, the Modi government and the Pakistani government have not maintained a political back channel. Operational coordination between the security forces and agencies has been effective in preventing flare-ups and cross-border shooting at the international border.

India is aware that Pakistan’s economy is in dire straits and that it has become mired in a multibillion-dollar Chinese debt trap. It is aware that Pakistani politicians continue to use the Kashmir issue as a political football to score political points against their rivals, despite the fact that the Rawalpindi GHQ, led by the astute Gen. Qamar Jawed Bajwa, has given up on the issue and does not wish to inflame military tensions along the international border with the Indian Army. Because Imran Khan Niazi is exerting pressure on Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Kashmir propaganda will continue to have political resonance in Pakistan till the upcoming general election.

In order to equip them to combat the vehemently anti-India Pakistan Army, Indian policy planners have opted to work with Pakistan’s civilian administration. A Pakistani politician is currently the issue.
