Latest Development: Pakistani Ranger nabbed by the BSF in Rajasthan
Tensions sparked between India and Pakistan over the Pahalgam incident, and the drama continues. On May 3, a Pakistani Ranger was apprehended by the BSF in the thick of the India-Pakistan border in Rajasthan's Sri Ganganagar. The specifics of this clandestine operation, be it surveillance or an attempted infiltration, remain under wraps.
Remember BSF's Purnam Kumar Shaw? The long-awaited return of our hero might be delayed. Shaw, a seasoned BSF constable, stumbled across the border from Punjab on April 23. In a twist of fate during a 'kisan guard' mission meant to protect farmers near the border fence, Shaw found himself in the Pakistan Rangers' crosshairs while taking a quick rest under a tree.
Shaw's pregnant wife, Rajani, has been relentlessly advocating for his release, visiting senior force officials in Ferozepur for updates. However, Pakistan has yet to budge regarding Shaw's release, a stark contrast to their usual swift resolutions for such cases.
The Pahalgam Attack Fallout: Amidst this international tug-of-war, tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated, with the Pahalgam terrorist attack being the main trigger. The attack on April 22 claimed the lives of 26 people, predominantly tourists, in the heart of Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam.
Following the Pahalgam attack, India took decisive action, including suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, shutting down the Integrated Check Post at Attari, decreasing staffing levels at High Commissions, cancelling all Pakistani visas, mandating their departure by April 30, and restricting the airspace for Pakistan Airlines flights.
Pakistan countered with the suspension of all trade with India, including third-party deals, banning Indian airlines from using their airspace, and ongoing ceasefire breaches along the border, particularly along the Line of Control (LoC).
