Biased article not reflecting the ground realities

[edit]

Why is there no mention mention of the several peaks Pakistan captured in 1999 and continue to hold on to this day? Recapturing one peak (Tiger Hill) and claiming overall victory is ridiculous, but then again so are imaginary surgical strikes. It seems like this was initially reported in the Indian media but then hushed up to avoid embarrassment.

The Hindu wrote this in August 2000: "Pakistan soldiers perched at peak 5353 metres, on the strategic Marpo La Ridge had a grandstand view of this year's Vijay Diwas celebrations, marking the official end of the Kargil war. At least some of them must had wry smiles on their faces, for although peak 5,353 metres is inside the Indian side of the Line of Control (LoC), Pakistani troops held the mountain through the Kargil war and continue to do so today."
