Just another load of Indian bollywood style crap. If there were heavy casualties then war would had started by know or at least heavy tension on the border & then we would had seen India once again crying & running to US for help just like Kargil.
LOL, well nothing wrong in being happy in your dreamland
I Think Pakistan should increase its firing power on LOC as Pakistan'S Army is not as large as Indians But Our Courageous and Brave army can fulfill this by putting more intensity in their Fire power to demolish India.
But you didn't know When just 10-20 SSG Commandos operate successfully at Pathankot and destroyed all defence in seconds...
Musharraf begged for Kargil ceasefire
Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has claimed that he called for a ceasefire to end the Kargil war in 1999 after Army chief Pervez Musharraf 'begged' him to do so.
Sharif, in an interview for a book Gaddar Kaun, also scoffed at the 'pull-out' by the Pakistani troops from Kargil saying they had 'lost everything.'
He admitted Pakistan made a 'request' to militants to withdraw from Kargil only to 'show to the world' that Pakistani troops had not occupied the icy heights in Jammu and Kashmir.
"The fact is that when Musharraf's misadventure failed miserably, this commando general came to me to get the war ceased at any cost," Sharif told author Suhail Warraich in an interview for an updated edition of the book which was released in Pakistan on Friday.
The former premier said US General Anthony Zinni's book 'verifies this claim of his.'
"His testimony clearly says that it was the army chief and not the prime minister, who wanted the ceasefire," Sharif said.
Sharif refuted Musharraf's claims that international pressure over Kargil had demoralised him.
"It is an interesting claim... I was not demoralised by the international pressure... first, he begged me for a ceasefire and then bade me farewell at the Chaklala Airport for Washington," the then premier said.
Sharif claims that after the first phase of his meeting with the then US President Bill Clinton, he came to know that India had recaptured Tiger Hill from Pakistani troops.
"You have lost everything already, now what should I talk about," Sharif claims to have told Musharraf during a telephone conversation from Washington.
Sharif said that he made the announcement asking the mujahideen to withdraw from the occupied heights at the advise of his military secretary to show the world that it were they who had captured the Karil peaks.
"When the mujahideen were formally requested to pull out from the peaks at a meeting called by the ISI, a militant commander asked 'where Kargil was.' This triggered laughter," Sharif said.
The former premier said that he appointed Musharraf as the army chief on the advise of defence secretary Iftikhar Ali Khan.
"Khan told me that Musharraf worshipped me as his hero. He advised me to appoint Musharraf as the army chief," Sharif said.

'US told Pak to get out of areas occupied during Kargil War' - Rediff.com India News
"India is hopping mad. Please get out of the places you have occupied," was the American message to Pakistan in the wake of the Kargil War in 1999, Pakistan’s then envoy to the US, Riaz Khokhar said in Islamabad on Sunday.
Almost 15 years after Pakistani troops intruded across the Line of Control sparking the border conflict, the issue came up for discussion at the Islamabad Literature Festival.
The speakers at the discussion, including former Pakistani Foreign Secretary Khokhar, former ambassador Tariq Osman Hyder and journalist Nasim Zehra had an open and frank talk about different aspects of the conflict.
All the three speakers agreed that the war was an "avoidable venture".
Khokhar gave an insight into the American reaction to the Kargil conflict.
"It was an avoidable venture. I was called by senior (US) Department of State officials and told to get out of the areas that we had occupied," he said.
He said the biggest failure of Pakistan was that it was not able to develop a credible narrative. "I think we were seen as an irresponsible country," he said.
Khokhar said there was unanimity in the army that the then Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was properly briefed on the war.
He dismissed the notion that the theatre of war would have expanded had Pakistan not withdrawn.
"The US said India is hopping mad. Please get out of the areas you have occupied otherwise the theatre of war might expand. It was a mere threat that US used," he said.
Khokhar said there was no movement of troops on the Indian side to suggest that the theatre of war would spread.
Zehra, whose book on the Kargil conflict is to be launched soon, said,
"Kargil is not something that Pakistan army as an institution is proud of".
She said there was a "Kargil clique" of "four generals who had planned it which was more or less a disaster".
Pakistani soldiers needed better leadership than those who planned the Kargil conflict, she said.
