A critical analysis of Operation Mahadev, a counterterrorism operation conducted by Indian security forces on July 28, 2025, in Jammu and Kashmir, as detailed in a Deccan Herald opinion piece by Bharat Bhushan. The operation resulted in the elimination of three Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists, identified as Suleiman, Afghani, and Gibran, linked to the April 22, 2025, Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians. Union Home Minister Amit Shah confirmed the success of the mission, citing ballistic evidence and the recovery of foreign-made weapons, including Romanian and American rifles, pointing to an international conspiracy. However, the operation has sparked scrutiny over the timing and nature of such encounters, raising questions about accountability and transparency in India’s counterterrorism strategy.
The piece also critiques the lack of transparency in such operations, questioning whether “dead terrorists tell no tales” hinders understanding of the terror ecosystem. With political debates intensifying, including Congress’s calls for clarity and social media posts alleging staged encounters, Operation Mahadev has reignited discussions on the balance between decisive action and investigative depth. This video analyzes these perspectives, the strategic success of the operation, and its impact on India-Pakistan relations and national security discourse.
