New Delhi: Even as India is expected to raise the Uri terror attack issue in a big way at the UN General Assembly (UNGA) soon to once again prove Pakistan’s role in masterminding terror attacks from its soil, Pakistan — by supporting a terror attack across the Line of Control (LoC) at an Indian Army base at Uri — may be hoping for a rise in military tension at the LoC which it will then raise at the ongoing UN General Assembly to fuel a spectre of a possible military clash between two nuclear-armed neighbours.
External affairs minister Sushma Swaraj is leading the Indian delegation and will address the UNGA on September 26. India has been articulating how Pakistan has been planning terror attacks from its soil to destabilise the situation in J&K and raise tensions.
The latest Uri terror attack carried out by Pakistan-sponsored militants is therefore expected to be raised by India in a major way at the UN to highlight how Pakistan continues to export terror to its neighbourhood. Observers feel that Pakistan may have engaged in the latest serious military provocation, hoping for retaliation by the Modi Government.
