NEW DELHI - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has slammed opposition parties for demanding evidence about last week’s military strike inside Pakistan, and support for him is rising, pollsters say, despite the questions about how successful it was.
With tensions at fever-pitch with nuclear rival Pakistan, and India’s general election due by May, the stakes are high. Pakistan responded with an air strike of its own, but no one was killed in that operation. The situation is slightly calmer but remains fraught; the two armies continue to regularly trade artillery fire at places along the frontier.
But pollsters and political analysts say Modi’s support is now rising, mainly because right-wing parties like the BJP typically have an advantage over others on national security issues. Pakistan has said the Indian bombs hit a largely empty hillside near the northeastern town of Balakot without hurting anyone.
