Summary:
The person launching such attacks has no intention of going back and finds it easier to defeat the security mechanism, drills and standard operating procedures. In the Pulwama attack, the content of explosives was phenomenal and contributed to the heavy damage. In 2005, they used vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (IED), but it did not cause much damage. We have a clear-cut national policy...any conflict has two major influencers -- external and internal drivers. India has experience in fighting insurgencies and terrorism since Independence..
