If american can do it (OBL killing), why couldn't we (indians) can do so. The supporters of this logic are growing in india, among the masses, media and gov. Circles.
Using movies and novels the indian gov. has slowly made up the minds of their people to support any such adventure to eliminate hafiz saeed.
The success of any such attempt will give a great boast to modi sarkar, who has failed to come up to the expectations of its over whelming vote bank in last elections.
So following are the two possible way indian hawks might consider to eliminate hafiz saeed inside pakistani territory.
Option1: Murder attempt using local agents and proxies
This option seems difficult but not impossible. Unlike obl, Hafiz saeed is a free man, who moves freely in cities, give tv intervurss and even address open public gathering (such as in meenar pakistan).
It is possible to target him using a suicide bomber or a sniper in a public gathering.
Incase, the person who make such attempt is captured by hafiz saeed body guards and general public, it will makes no difference.
Indians wont mind sacrificing a person if he is successful in eliminating the prime indian target.
Option2: Precision Air strikes
Hafiz saeed mostly resides in JuD markaz or in his 2 or 3 houses in outskirts of lahore and mureedkay.
Unlike abbotabad which is deep inside Pakistan, the residences and JuD markaz of hafiz saeed are very well known places and very close to indian boarder [around 20 miles].
Targetting HS using Precision guided bombs can not be ruled out. A Sukhoi MKI at supercruise speed will reach the JuD markaz or HS residence in hardly 2 to 3 minutes. During peace time, the response time to counter intercept such enemy planes is more than 5 to 7 minutes.
With accurate intelligence
Of HS presence at his residence, IAF can carry out such attack, even if they lose their aircraft and pilot while returning home.
It isnt any film Or drama, but such actions can not be ruled out, considering the OBL episode in mind.
Conclusion:
1. After myanmar fiasco, hawks on indian side may consider any such adventure.
2. Incase of any such action, on the diplomatic front, India will take the stance that they have not attacked pakistan but have only targeted mumbai attack master mind who is on UN security council list of terrorist.
3. Only thing that is restricting indians from any such miss adventure is the unknown Pakistani response. Indians are not sure how pakistan will respond to all this, will pakistan give a similar response to India or make a judicial commission like OBL issue.
