Lahore: Describing former Pakistan chief of army staff Lt. Gen. (retired) Shahid Aziz as an imbalanced personality who has indulged in uncalled for character assassination, former president and army chief General (retired) Pervez Musharraf, justifying the 1999 Kargil War, said there was absolutely no need to inform everyone about the operation.
Rejecting the suggestion that he had willfully put a “tight lid” on details regarding the Kargil War operation when he was Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff, Musharraf told the Express News show Kal Tak that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif was solely to blame for the defeat, though militarily it was a success in the sense that it completely exposed the Indian security establishment’s unpreparedness.
“If he (Sharif) had not visited the US, we would have conquered 300 square miles of India,” claimed Musharraf.
He described the Kargil operation as a localized one, where the exchange of fire was routine.
“Nawaz lost a political front which we had won militarily,” he added.
During the Kargil conflict of 1999, Aziz ran the Inter-Services Intelligence analysis wing.
