In a dramatic revelation, a former Indian Army soldier has publicly accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah of orchestrating false flag operations in Indian-administered Kashmir — including the recent Pahalgam attack, which he claims was staged for political gains.
The ex-soldier, who claims to have served 18 years in the Indian Army and to have been stationed in Pahalgam, has presented what he describes as “undeniable evidence” debunking the official narrative of the Pahalgam incident. In his statement, he questioned how an attack could have occurred in an area that had three layers of high-security checkpoints manned by the Indian Army, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), and Border Security Force (BSF).
“Even uniformed soldiers could not pass through without a full search,” he said, emphasising that security was foolproof during his tenure.

However, the whistle-blower claimed that just a week before the attack, Amit Shah conducted an unannounced visit to the area and ordered the removal of all security checkpoints—an unprecedented move that he claims directly paved the way for the so-called terrorist incident.
“Is it just a coincidence that the attack happened exactly one week after all security checks were removed?” he asked rhetorically, implying that the attack was deliberately facilitated.
Allegations Point to Top Leadership
The former serviceman didn’t hold back, directly accusing Modi, Shah, and the RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) of being the masterminds behind such staged attacks. According to him, these operations are part of a broader false flag strategy designed to manipulate public sentiment, especially around elections.
“All terrorism in Kashmir is state-sponsored. Modi and Amit Shah are backing it for political gain,” he alleged.
Defence Analysts React: A Crack in Modi’s Narrative?
Prominent defence analysts have reacted strongly to the ex-soldier’s disclosures, calling them a major blow to Modi’s national security narrative.
“These are explosive claims that undermine the credibility of India’s internal security policies,” one analyst remarked. “If true, this suggests that the Modi government is willing to risk national security and civilian lives for electoral advantages.”
Critics of the Modi administration have long accused it of using nationalist rhetoric and militarised incidents to sway public opinion and silence dissent. This latest revelation, coming from a former insider, has only added fuel to that fire.
