Orders to shift Lashkar headquarters, air space closed..., why is Pakistan afraid of airstrike by India after...
According to the information, the airspace in the central sector of Pakistan will be completely closed from 16-23 July. At the same time, the airspace of southern Pakistan will remain closed on 22-23 July. In this regard, Pakistan has issued NOTAM i.e. Notice to Airmen. Only last week, Chinese cargo planes were seen in Pakistan. In such a situation, it is believed that China has supplied new weapons and air defense systems to Pakistan because, during Operation Sindoor (6-10 May), India destroyed Pakistan's terrorist bases and airbases as well as destroyed radars and air defense systems on a large scale. What instructions are given to Lashkar-e-Taiba?
Meanwhile, it is reported that Pakistani intelligence agency ISI has instructed Lashkar-e-Taiba to shift its headquarters from Muridke to Bahawalpur. Lashkar's headquarters have been in Muridke in Pakistan's Punjab province since the end of the Soviet Afghan war in Afghanistan in the late 80s.
According to ABP News, such posters have been spotted in Bahawalpur which prove that Lashkar is now active in Muridke. During Operation Sindoor, the Indian Air Force carried out missile strikes in Muridke and Bahawalpur. India's BrahMos missile caused massive damage to both Bahawalpur and Muridke. ISI's field office was also exposed inside Lashkar's headquarters in Muridke. What is the reason behind shifting Lashkar's headquarters?
This decision has been taken with the intention of intensifying anti-India activities after the killing of Jaish and Lashkar terrorists in Operation Sindoor. According to sources, one reason behind shifting Lashkar's headquarters from Muridke could be to show the whole world, including America, that Lashkar has been destroyed.
It is quite possible that Lashkar may be given a new name. ISI has done this before as well. After the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, when Lashkar was declared a global terrorist organization and banned by America and UN, its name was changed to Jamaat-ud-Dawa.
Reportedly, the ISI gave Lashkar a new name, The Resistance Front (TRF) to carry out terrorist activities in Kashmir.

Chinese nationals attacked in Pakistan, Beijing puts touring Asim Munir in a spot over security lapses
In the wake of continuing attacks on Chinese nationals and projects in Pakistan, China conveyed strong displeasure to visiting Pakistan army chief Asim Munir and pressed him to take action against anti-China groups on its soil. read more Confident from his visit to Washington DC, Pakistani army chief Asim Munir would have thought of having a victory lap in Beijing. Instead, he received a dressing down from Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi over continuing attacks on Chinese nationals and businesses in Pakistan. In recent years, armed groups in Pakistan, such as the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA), have mounted several attacks on Chinese projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and Chinese nationals living in the country. China has repeatedly called Pakistan to rein in such groups, but the regime has failed to prevent such attacks — Pakistan has failed to prevent attacks against its own personnel as well. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Wang told Munir on Thursday that it is his hope that 'the Pakistani military will continue to make all-out efforts to ensure the safety of Chinese personnel, projects and institutions in Pakistan', according to a readout carried by state-owned Xinhua news agency. Even as the two countries mentioned the usual cliches of being iron-clad brothers with an all-weather relationship, Wang's tone in repeated statements made it clear that the Communist Party is not pleased with the state of affairs in Pakistan. After all, the Gwadar port, described as the crown jewel of the CPEC, which itself is central to Xi Jinping's brainchild Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), has failed to take off even after billions of dollars of investment over the past decade.

NDA likely to commence consultations over its nominee for VP post after July 28
NEW DELHI: With the EC formally initiating the process of electing the next Vice President by appointing a Returning Officer, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is expected to commence consultations for its nominee for the key constitutional post after July 28. This move comes amid indications that the Opposition will also field a candidate. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to speak in both Houses of Parliament after July 28 on Operation Sindoor. In the electoral college, which comprises members of both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, the ruling BJP-led NDA holds a clear majority with nearly 425 members out of a total of 782 MPs. This makes its nominee, clear and strong to win the polls to this second-highest constitutional post of Vice President after the President of India. There is growing speculation that the Modi government may once again take a bold step to send a strong message in line with its mantra of women's empowerment by fielding a woman candidate. If this possibility materialises, it would mark a significant representation of nari-shakti, with women occupying both the posts of President and Vice President. In the days to come, the prospect of a woman serving as Army Chief may no longer remain a distant assumption. 'Remember, Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh, at a function in Bihar, expressed hope that one day a woman may be seen as the Chief of the Army,' remarked a senior BJP leader. Although no official briefing has been made by the BJP regarding the selection of a candidate, sources have indicated that the Vice Presidential candidate will be chosen from within the party, with strong links to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Given recent experiences, the BJP is unlikely to take the risk of selecting a candidate who could prove unpredictable, once in office. The party leadership is expected to begin serious discussions with NDA allies to reach a consensus on a suitable candidate after 29 July, following the Prime Minister's speech in Parliament. 'One thing is clear, no candidate who has defected to the BJP from other parties, especially Congress, would be considered for this post. The possibility is that our alliance may finally agree on any one of four serving governors who have been associated with the Sangh and are deeply attached with the party's ideology of keeping the Nation and its Constitution above everything,' remarked a very senior BJP leader on July 25 to TNIE. Among the prominent names currently being considered are Karnataka Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot, Sikkim Governor Om Prakash Mathur, Jammu & Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, Bihar Governor Md Arif Khan, and Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel.
