Pak’s attempted attack face saving exercise: Former Army chief

LUDHIANA: Pakistan’s attempted attack on India’s military installations was a mere “face saving exercise”, former Army chief Gen V P Malik (Retd) said here Wednesday.

“The (attempted) attack by the Pakistan Air Force on Indian territory is just a face saving action taken by the Government of that country,” Malik told the media here.

“It’s inadequacy was amply exposed during yesterday’s air strikes by Indian Air Force on the terrorist camps when their forces were caught unaware,” he added.

He said that the Pakistan Government was left with no other choice but to retaliate even if the attack failed to achieve anything. (AGENCIES)
