New Delhi, India – Following a brief air conflict with Pakistan in May, Prime Minister Modi warned that any future terrorist act would be treated as an act of war. This stance was complicated by a deadly explosion near the Red Fort in Delhi, which killed 13 and injured many; while the investigation points to links with Pakistan-based groups, India has refrained from directly blaming Pakistan. Experts suggest Modi’s rhetoric created a dilemma for India, as attributing blame could escalate military expectations. Investigations revealed local perpetrators with alleged support from external groups, emphasizing a shift in India’s response to terrorism.
