Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has slammed opposition parties for demanding evidence about last week’s military strikes inside Pakistan and has rejected the request for proof.
Opposition leaders have raised doubts about the government’s official claims that a “very large number” of members of an Islamist militant group were killed in the strike by Indian warplanes.
However, Mr Modi has hit back at an election rally, saying: “At a time when our army is engaged in crushing terrorism, inside the country and outside, there are some people within the country who are trying to break their morale, which is cheering our enemy.”
The situation between India and Pakistan is slightly calmer but remains fraught; six were killed as fighting continued over the weekend and the two armies continue to trade artillery fire at places along the frontier.
Pakistan's navy on Tuesday said it spotted and warned an Indian submarine approaching its territorial waters on Monday but said it was not targeted.
