Pakistan army has issued a high-alert to its troops deployed at the easternborder after intelligence agencies intercepted classified information whichsuggests India is contemplating a surgical strike to divert the world’sattention from the ongoing farmers’ protests, led by Sikh farmers, that hasswept across the country.

Sources have it that the BJP-led Hindu nationalist government of NarendraModi would go to any extent to put an end to the Sikh-led farmers’ proteststhat could potentially prove to be an impetus to the Khalistan movement, aSikh separatist movement seeking to create a homeland for Sikhs byestablishing a sovereign state, called Khalistan.——————————

As a result, armed forces stationed along the eastern border, in general,and those guarding the LOC and Working Boundary, in particular, havereceived orders from the military’s top brass to remain high-alert toswiftly dismantle nefarious Indian designs.

Hailing mostly from the “rice bowl” of India- Punjab and Haryana- hundredsof thousands of farmers across India have been on the streets, particularlyin New Delhi, for the past two weeks, seeking revocation of three farm lawsthat were promulgated in September this year.

Yesterday, the Sikh leaders of the protests issued a “Bharat Band”(Shutdown India) call to bring the Indian government to its knees. Thefarmers’ nationwide shutdown call has been supported by trade unions andopposition parties equally.
