India makes big move after Pakistan appoints Asim Munir as Field Marshal... Islamabad will now suffer due to... In the world, the general of the army that wins the war is given the gift of promotion. Pakistan which has tried to fool its own people by promoting even the general who was badly beaten in the war. In the Baisaran valley of Pahalgam, on the instigation of Pakistan's Army Chief General Asim Munir, terrorists massacred tourists after asking their religion. After that, India launched Operation Sindoor and punished the terrorists and the Pakistani army for their deeds. In the first phase of Operation Sindoor, India destroyed 9 camps of terrorists through aerial strike. In this, many members of the family of the notorious terrorist Maulana Masood Azhar were also killed. After that, Pakistan attacked India with drones and missiles, which were neutralized by the Indian Air Defense System. After this, India carried out rapid attacks and caused extensive damage to 11 military bases of Pakistan. In this way, Pakistan's General Asim Munir's army was badly defeated. Now the same General Munir has been promoted by Shahbaz Sharif and given the rank of Field Marshal. Meanwhile, India has taken a step that will increase Islamabad's headache. After the success of Operation Sindoor, the Modi government has taken another big step. The Centre has given service extension to IB Chief Tapan Kumar Deka for the second time in a row. This decision of the government is being considered very important amid the success of Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor. Actually, Tapan Kumar Deka is considered an expert on Pakistan matters. Especially, he has no equal in handling operational matters related to Pakistan. In such a situation, looking at the current situation, the Indian government has decided to extend Deka's tenure for one more year. In this way, the tension of Pakistan, the master of terrorists, is sure to increase. Let us tell you that Deka has been given service extension for the second time in a row. Now the question arises that why is Tapan Kumar Deka so important? Actually, Deka is considered a specialist of Pakistan affairs. He has proved his role many times, especially in operational matters. After the Pahalgam attack, tension between India and Pakistan has increased a lot. By launching Operation Sindoor, India has told Pakistan as well as the whole world that now terrorist attacks will not be allowed to go on like this. Terrorists and their masters will have to pay their full price. Along with this, India has also made it clear that now any kind of terrorist attack will be considered an act of war. Looking at the current situation, it is necessary to have such a person on the top post of IB who knows every nook and corner of Pakistan. Tapan Kumar Deka has no influence in this matter at present.

Multiple drone attacks in Barmer and Jaisalmer, missile-like debris found
Three days after India conducted an airstrike on terrorist camps across the border, Pakistan retaliated by targeting Barmer with a series of drone attacks on Friday night. From 9 pm to 5.15 am, dozens of drones attempted to breach Indian airspace. However, the Indian Air Defense System successfully intercepted and destroyed every drone mid-air. All neutralizations occurred within a 7–8 km radius of Barmer city. The last attack was reported at 5.15 am on Saturday. Narendra Singh Meena, Superintendent of Police in Barmer, confirmed to Hindustan Times that multiple drone attacks were reported in the district. At around 6.27 am, District Collector Tina Dabi issued an alert stating, 'Incoming air raid by drones information received. Please stay inside your homes.' A red alert, which was sounded by the district administration at 9.10 pm on Friday, was called off at 7.02 am on Saturday. A missile-like object was found in the Gida area of Balotra, raising concerns amid ongoing tensions. Inspector General of Police (Jodhpur Range) Vikas Kumar confirmed the incident, stating, "A suspicious object has fallen in Balotra. We have contacted the Army and Air Force to identify what it is." Authorities have urged people to stay away from the site as a precautionary measure. According to IGP Kumar, the object is about 15 feet long and appears to be solid debris. "There is no need to panic at the moment, but people must maintain a safe distance," he added. The exact village name has not been disclosed, but the object reportedly fell close to a populated area. 'Given the tense situation, security forces are managing the scene. No harm is being allowed, and people should stay calm,' Kumar reassured. Meanwhile, a second suspicious object was found in the Baldev Nagar locality of Barmer city. Local residents immediately alerted the police after hearing loud sounds and spotting unusual lights in the sky. According to resident Devraj, 'We were sleeping on the terrace when we saw flashing lights in the sky followed by loud noises. Soon after, an object crashed outside our house.' He added that locals saw 10–12 illuminated objects flying like lanterns before some began descending with loud blasts. The attacks followed a similar attempt on May 7, when Pakistan targeted the Uttarlai Airbase. Friday's wave of drone activity was also concentrated near critical infrastructure, including the oil fields in Nagana, Uttarlai Airbase, Rajwest Power Plant, Jassai and Jalipa military stations, and the city of Barmer itself. Drone sightings and interceptions were also reported on Thursday night in Ramgarh, Jaisalmer, and Pokhran. These attacks continued on Friday, with Barmer joining the list of targets. In a separate incident in Balotra's Gida region, residents of Jagaram Ki Dhani in the Devasiyon Ki Dhani Panchayat reported a missile-like object crashing from the sky with a deafening explosion. Upon discovering the unidentified object, villagers alerted local police, who then informed the administration and military authorities. Investigations are currently underway at both sites. In Jaisalmer, villagers in Baroda's Mangliyon Ki Dhani reported drone debris falling after a powerful blast at dawn. Local police from Sadar Thana responded immediately to the scene. A complete blackout was enforced in Barmer city by the district administration on Friday night to reduce visibility for incoming drones. Residents were asked to stay indoors, and even inverter-powered lights were turned off in compliance with official orders. Red alerts and sirens were sounded every 10–15 minutes. Both the Barmer Collector and the Superintendent of Police patrolled various neighborhoods to ensure compliance. 9 pm: Multiple drones spotted near Barmer city; all were destroyed within minutes. 9.10 pm: Cluster of drones attacked near Bandra; debris found nearby. 9:25 pm: Nine drones observed over Hapo Ki Dhani; taken down within 5 seconds. 9.37 pm : Swarm of drones seen above Veerm Nagar and Jalipa; bright flashes followed by explosions reported. 10.30 pm: Drones flying towards the Magra area were intercepted and destroyed. 5.15 am: Another wave of drones approached Barmer; all were neutralized mid-air. In Pokhran - a site of strategic importance - Pakistan launched drone attacks for the second consecutive night. The first drone was spotted at 8.15 pm, followed by two more at 8.25pm and 9pm. All were destroyed by Indian air defense systems. The area had been under blackout since 6pm, and local markets were deserted. The repeated explosions triggered fear among residents. The administration has since issued a red alert across the district. Security agencies have cordoned off all affected sites, and investigations are underway to determine the origin and nature of the fallen objects.
