According to Indian media, General Panag called the recent deadly attack in Pahalgam one of the most dangerous assaults on tourists. However, instead of calling for immediate retaliation, he advised the government to act wisely and avoid emotional decisions.

“Pakistan is fully nuclear – and ready to respond”

General Panag reminded everyone that Pakistan is a fully functional nuclear state with strong, ready-to-use response strategies. He warned that any rushed or emotional move by India could lead to serious consequences.

He also admitted that India does not have any clear technical edge over Pakistan when it comes to missiles, drones, air power, or naval strength – making any attack risky and unpredictable.
