So, I'll assume that Porkroaches tried (unsuccessfully) to attack Amritsar. Every other factor aside, this is enough casus belli; there is absolutely no way they can be allowed to get away with this, unsuccessful attack or not.
Problem is, and I hate to say this because I'm not saying this coming from a place of bhosdapilling, but the average well-to-do Indian's appetite for war is so low that there needs to be a lot of work and effort spent on rhetoric to motivate him from his materialistic day-to-day life. This conflict needs to be framed as an existential, unchangeable danger to increase the war drums.
Sad to say, many might still have the attitude of "Yeh sab hote rehta hai", which explains why Congressi scum swept the elections in Maharashtra just months after 26/11.
Which is why, in my opinion, this napunsak "Non-escalatory, measured strikes" talking points might be well-suited for the consumption of goras, but is horrible for domestic purposes because at best it will have no effect, and at worst shall make the general public's attitude even more conflict-averse. There needs to be some effective war-time propaganda disseminated by the government for domestic consumption to fire up people and prepare for a bloody conflict, almost on the level of Cocaine Natsoc Germany's Totalen Krieg because that rhetoric is what appeals to people.
