no biasements allowed!

Pakistan lost 180 soldiers KIA, 30 tanks & 3 sabres destroyed in the BATTLE OF GHARIBPUR/BOYRA. 1 Indian battallion completely destroyed an entire Pakistani brigade supported by air & artillery. Indian losses were just 30 KIA & 4 tanks destroyed. OBJECTION:- first of all there were 2 Indian battalions( -jammu & kashmir and 2 sikh light), Indians had the support of 1 squd. of t-55 tanks. on the Pakistani side the "brigade" consisted of 2 companies of 22 FF and 38 FF and 1 squad. of m-24 chafee tanks. just 3 sabres took part in this battle and 2 were shot down, 8 folland gnats had taken part and 1 was shotdown. Pakistan lost 11 tanks while Indians themselves admitted losing 7 t-55 tanks.
