Islamabad (Web Desk): Following the setback of Operation Sindoor, India has reportedly launched a new covert military campaign named Operation Mahadev, which is aimed at covering up the recent failures of its recent conflicts with Pakistan.

According to security sources, this operation is said to involve orchestrated fake encounters, where innocent Pakistani nationals, unlawfully and forcefully detained, are used as scapegoats and falsely depicted as cross-border militants.

The primary goal of Operation Mahadev appears to be the suppression of the escalating freedom movement in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) while attempting to revive the diminishing political standing of the Modi government.

As per the security sources, India is striving to portray Operation Mahadev as a triumphant military endeavor to overshadow the embarrassment caused by the unsuccessful Operation Sindoor.
Reports indicate that following the controversial Pahalgam false flag incident, the Indian Army initiated a series of staged encounters.

A tragic example occurred on April 24, when two citizens from Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Muhammad Farooq and Muhammad Deen, lost their lives in a harsh encounter with Indian forces after unintentionally crossing the border.

In press briefings on April 29 and 30, the Director General of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) disclosed that 723 Pakistani nationals remain unlawfully imprisoned in various Indian jails, with an additional 56 individuals reportedly held in clandestine custody by Indian intelligence agencies.

Consistent with past tactics, videos and images of the deceased, often accompanied by planted weapons, are circulated through Indian media channels to legitimize the official narrative.

Credible sources further suggest that these detainees may be subjected to coercion, forced to issue anti-Pakistan statements and confessions before being presented to the public.

Operation Mahadev seems to continue the Indian Army's notorious pattern of staged encounters in IIOJK, where it has earned a reputation as a "fake encounter specialist."

After suffering humiliation in the Pahalgam false flag incident and failing in Operation Sindoor, the Indian military now appears to be grappling with a loss of direction.
