“X corps of Pakistan army is active at the Line of Control (LoC). It operates terrorists at the LoC and having commanded X Corps, Gen. Bajwa is considered as an expert on terrorist operations against India. X Corps has been nourishing terrorists against India,” said a senior official in the defence establishment.

“There is a section in the Pak army which feels that there has been damage to their reputation within Pakistan due to India’s move like removing article 370 and Indian Air Force (IAF) airstrike at terrorist camp at Balakot. So they could try to retaliate against India,” said the official.
