Another angle. Perhaps getting close to the truth here:
DNA exclusive: Uri commanders forceful retaliation led to beheadings? - India - DNA
"As New Delhi raged over the attack by Pakistani troops claiming the lives of two Indian soldiers on Indian soil, and the mutilation of the bodies, the Union ministry of home has received inputs that suggest that Indian army units in the Uri sector could have provoked the incident. While there was sporadic firing exchanged in some parts ofthe LoC, a cross-border raid by the ghatak (commando) platoon of the 9th Maratha Light Infantry (MLI) in the early hours of Sunday could have been the provocation."
Also at the end of the peice:
"There is a feeling in the government that Brig Rawat has a very aggressive track record which could have escalated tensions on the LoC at a time when the nine-year-old ceasefire was holding up well. An inquiry into the incident has been ordered by Army Headquarters and a decision on Brig Rawat could also be taken in the coming days."
The most noticeable point here is and i feel for the last some period that Indian Army is bypassing Indian govt in some cases which was not the situation before.
This should be something worrisome for the Indian Govt not LoC at the moment since that is intact but a crack in through proper channel for India is indeed something the begining of bad taste for major quarters in India
