Like an irresistible force, prime minister Narendra Modi has perfected the knack of pointing to the left and turning towards Pakistan. His schedule and remarks prior to the 2019 Balakot attacks and "Operation Sindoor" on wednesday morning (May 7) are masterworks in the art of deception, the tactic of using traditional red herrings to confuse the enemy.
Modi's war dance, a symbolic tandav that detonates on the international scene without warning, is the second instance; the first is chance. Pakistan would be regretting itself for not taking note of PM Modi's pre-Balakot behavior given the striking similarities between the build-up to both operations.

48 HOURS BEFORE BALAKOT
India struck Balakot just before dawn on february 26. But, for PM Modi, it was business as usual in the 48 hours preceding the action.

He dedicated the National war Memorial in New delhi to the country on february 25. There was no indication of the upcoming attack on the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan's khyber pakhtunkhwa province, notwithstanding his remarks about the bravery of India's military.
When indian planes were about to take off at 9 p.m., PM Modi was speaking at a media group-organized gathering in New Delhi. PM Modi discussed India's goals, progress, and determination to combat terrorism. However, the prime minister was embodied as sang-froid, while the clock ticked on in the backdrop. His data-face was devoid of any wrinkles, a worry line, or any hint of uncertainty.

According to psychologists, the hallmarks of a great leader include courage in the data-face of fire and composure in the data-face of adversity. PM Modi's leadership by example would have pleased them; maybe the episode will soon include a chapter from a self-help book.
You will undoubtedly make the same mistakes as history if you don't learn from it. pakistan would not have been a silent observer on the evening of May 6-7, when india struck nine targets across the Line of Control, if it had examined PM Modi's actions before to Balakot.

Lessons from History
because PM Modi's schedule and mannerisms were a perfect reflection of his position before to Balakot. He spoke about India's ambitions to become a global economic powerhouse by 2047 at a media event just hours before the strikes.
Throughout his half-hour speech, the prime minister was the epitome of composure. Even though the audience was eager to hear him criticize the neighbor for its sponsorship of terror acts in india, he spoke with the poise of a man free of tension and anxiety, making jokes and refraining from using the P word. Even body language professors in 2019 would have gotten nothing more from him than the stolid leader's easy assurance.

In retrospect, his remarks can be interpreted as a subliminal warning of what was to come. He discussed the "log-kya-kahenge" syndrome, which is the incapacity of governments to act decisively due to a fear of popular pressure. The nation should be the only deciding element. Naturally, only a skilled mind-reader could have deduced that PM Modi was verbally revealing the innermost thoughts.
The announcement of war drills throughout india was, of course, the largest ploy, suggesting that PM Modi was still preparing his nation for military action and its aftermath. However, as it turns out, it was really a tactic to make pakistan appear to have more time.

There is very little risk of losing a battle if you know the opponent, according to gurus of the art of war. pakistan can begin by examining PM Modi, interpreting what he says and doesn't say, identifying hidden intentions in his behavior, and searching for indications of tension and worry that don't exist.
No, you would say. That's PM Modi for you; his opponents find him to be a mystery in a conundrum. A man who, both literally and figuratively, points left and always turns right.
