Indian ex-general says Pak Army's media wing ISPR wins information war

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
LONDON: A former Indian military official has commended the Pakistan Army media wing Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) for adopting
outstanding strategy in the domain of hybrid warfare.Speaking at the International Institute of Strategic Studies in UK, Lt Gen (retd) Syed
Ata Husnain acknowledged that ISPR outlessoned the Indian army in information war saying: &I want to give full marks to the ISPR for the
information strategy it has played out&.The ex-general, who had also served as the corps commander in IoK, said that ISPR brilliantly
performed its work for Pakistan by ensuring detailed alienation of Kashmiris against Indian armed forces, adding, &If anyone has ever taught
us [India] about the information operation it was the ISPR… it has done an outstanding job.&He accused Modi government for the Pulwama
suicide attack in occupied Kashmir, saying he was aware of the fact that the Pulwama-like incident was inevitable due to the Indian
government lack of understanding of the clash.Ata Husnain said that the Indian army had made a lot of strategic mistakes in 30 years but one
of major blunder was to consider the military actions as a psychological war.According to the retired general, the youth mammoth funeral
procession was a cause of rising extremism among Kashmiris, adding that use of force could much solve the Kashmir
dispute.TheIndianSubcontinent has not verified the content of the source
