I do not know if you are talking about me when you said this, but I did check the number of 400 - 4000.
On the Wikipedia page of the Kargil War (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kargil_War) you can see the casualties from both sides (see part of screenshot below).

As you can see is that the numbers of casualties at the Pakistani side range from 357 - 4000 (with sources to back them up) which shows that the range given in the article from 400 - 4000 does not differ that much. Maybe the writer of the article used Wikipedia for the number of casualties.
Also the number of Indian casualties are listed as 527 above which roughly corresponds with the 500 given in the article. However Musharraf claimed that there were 1600 Indian deaths. So, it would have been more honest of the writer (if he is aware of these numbers) to write the number of Indian deaths in the range of 500 - 1600.
That I agree with.
@Pakistan Ka Beta
This is the first time I posted an article from this site, so I do not know what their agenda is.
@masterchief_mirza
The article was written by a Pakistani.
How can this be Indian chanakya?
Or is anyone who criticises the Pakistani army a traitor?
I post articles about everything.
So, how can that be selection bias?
Well, (for the thousandth time) I was born in Paramaribo, Suriname. I am a Surinamese Hindustani. I am a descendant of British Indian contract labourers who where brought to Suriname to work on the fields there.
And I am currently living in the Netherlands (of which Suriname was a colony until 1975, the year of independence).
You do realise that this is forum and not a scientific journal?
And I have no conflict of interest.
I did choose the Surinamese flag, but that is not visible.
I do not think that the Surinamese flag is made and available on PDF.
The flag of the Netherlands however is, as you can see.
I have placed something about my nationality in my signature.
Especially for you.
P.S.
If you have something to say, do not talk about me, but talk to me.
