      Shekhar, I don't know how you could have gotten it so wrong. The person you are talking about is Lt. Gen. Zaheer-ul-Islam Abbassi who is different from the picture you are showing - that of Lt. Gen. Zaheer-ul-Islam, a completely different person who was Pakistani DG-ISI during Nawaz Sharif's 3rd term and is accused of helping Imran Khan in his infamous dharna of 2014. Such an editorial blunder is not expected from you and your team. More factual error - During Kargil, Lt. Gen. Tauqeer Zia was the Pakistani DGMO. The Pakistani DG-ISI during the Kargil war was Lt. Gen. Ziauddin Butt, someone appointed by Nawaz and mistrusted by Musharraf.

    People often like to find "context" and "reasons" for events. Sometimes "stupidity" is simply STUPIDITY. Kargil was conceived by Musharraf post-Operation Meghdoot. It was Musharraf's "pet project". The plan was discussed with both Zia and Bhutto but nobody green-lit it. Becoming the army chief allowed Musharraf to "re-launch" the operation despite the strategy being totally outdated. Of course, India made many blunders but ultimately it was an "war of attrition" with odds favoring India.

Even now some level of DISTRUST exists (perhaps, for genuine reasons). (4) India's continued vulnerability in Kashmir.

    Dear shekhar gupta sir, along with the army and the Air force the BSF also played a very vital role in kargil war but as usual the media has forgotten to include the contribution of the BSF . while the army came down from the mountain top posts in the winter which the Pakistanis later occupied, the BSF troops never left their similar mountain top posts. That is why the Pakistanis could never capture the bsf posts. Later the army used some of these BSF posts as staging grounds for recapturing the other posts that they had lost to the Pakistanis. Even some BSF soldiers were injured in this war in action. But as usual the media and the government gives no visibility to the contribution of the BSF. I hope you could highlight this in your future reports.

General Zaheer ul Islam has been pasted who was the ISI chief and had no like with Major General Zahir ul Islam Abbasi.

    They have put in pictures of Lt Gen Zaheer ul Islam who was appointed the DG ISI in 2012 and is still alive today.
    He is not to be confused with Maj Gen Zaheer ul Islam Abbasi who launched the operation in 1990 and was sacked in 1995 for his role in organising a coup against Benazir Bhutto and passed away in 2009.
