Pakistan must be taught a lesson in its own language if found guilty of recent incidents of derailing trains in India where a number of people have lost their lives, Major General G. D. Bakshi (retd) said here on Tuesday.
Maj Gen Bakshi said Pakistan's Inter - Services Intelligence (ISI) can be behind the derailing of four trains as per primary indications that the accident of last year's Patna - Indore express train was caused due to rail fracture.
"Terrorists keep on changing their methods for terror attacks and ISI can now be Maoist insurgents.
If it is true, it's a new big challenge, " Bakshi told IANS.
He said the country has nearly 1. 20 lakh - km rail tracks and cannot deploy security persons at a distance of every kilometre.
Praising union government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Gen Bakshi said last year's surgical strike in Pakistan - administered Kashmir by Indian soldiers was bold and courageous action, and Pakistan deserves more of it.
"If Pakistan is playing with the lives of Indian, the terror - supplying neighbour (Pakistan) must be taught a lesson and there should be a message for the world that Indian lives are not so cheap, " he added.
