COMMUNICATION IN THE TIME OF CONFLICT
The Daily Guardian
|May 13, 2025
Communication plays a major role in modern warfare, where the right message needs to go out not only to the domestic public but also to the international community.
It is in this department that India seems to have been failing in its Operation Sindoor, while winning the actual battle convincingly. But this was until the time the DGMO press conferences started, where the senior-most officers of the Indian armed forces put up a foolproof case to show how India has pummelled Pakistan.
Compared to this, the Pakistani DG ISPR's press conferences resemble a clown show, with what is jokingly referred to as "trust me bro", replacing actual proof. But then the problem is that in the international media at least, Pakistani claims have got amplified, including the ridiculous one about Pakistani drones hovering over New Delhi. It is surprising that these international news agencies would highlight Pakistani claims in such a manner, while often giving a passing mention to whatever Indians have been saying.
