War of words intensifies over Army's Myanmar operation

Pakistan’s Interior Minister Nisar Ali Khan had warned India that his country cannot be cowed down by the threats from across the border. Attributing the Myanmar operation to “change in mindset”, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar today took a dig at Pakistan, saying those who “fear India’s new posture” have already started reacting. With the knowledge of Myanmar authorities, the Indian Army had undertaken a successful cross-border strike that killed at least 38 insurgents who were part of the groups believed to be responsible for the June 4 ambush that left 18 soldiers dead.
