Former top Army commander Lt General DS Hooda, who had supervised India's military operations across the Line of Control in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir against multiple terror launch pads there in September 2016, Sunday said a single surgical or air strike is not enough to make Pakistan change its behaviour.
Hooda headed the Army's Northern Command when special forces commandos carried out the cross-border operations in September 2016 inside PoK, following Uri terror strike in which 19 Indian soldiers had been killed.
Presenting salient features of his report "India's National Security Strategy" at a panel discussion "Beyond politics: Debating a new security manifesto" the former Army general said "one surgical strike or air strike is not going to change Pakistan's behaviour."
