If we de escalate now or arrive at a CF it'd be a classic case of well begun is half done. Under no circumstances must we relent unless we've considerably damaged their war fighting machinery & by that I mean their AF & Navy.
If we have a CF now they'd do exactly what we've been doing since 2019 . Go back to the drawing board, war game where they went wrong , adopt the right tactics & fill in their inventory with such weapons which they now lack such that they're back in business in 5 years precisely around the time we're expected to go up against China.
We absolutely cannot afford that. Hence destruction of their war fighting machinery in the form of their AF & Navy is a non negotiable just as keeping the LoC permanently on the low simmer to be graduated up & down as the situation demands as well as increased material &/or finances to Taliban - Afghanistan, TTP , Balochi Sarmachars & other such separatist groups in Paxtan.
Not doing so will be inviting a lot of trouble the next time we go to war with Paxtan. Need I add , our history with Paxtan over 75 years will testify to the soundness of my 2 cent analysis !
