General Intelligence · General Aptitude
Directions: Read the passage carefully and choose the most reasonable inference. During a precise military operation, India utilized precision-guided munitions from its own territory to strike targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, which allowed for a swift, decisive, and de-escalatory action without violating international airspace. This demonstrates that the operation was strategically planned to maintain control over the conflict and avoid international escalation by minimizing both the immediate risk of direct confrontation in another country's airspace and the possibility of a prolonged war. This contrasts with earlier operations that might have involved direct ground assaults or more aggressive border crossings. Which of the following statements is a reasonable inference from the passage?
- 1The operation indicated a shift in military strategy towards targeted strikes with a lower risk of international escalation.✓
- 2The action was a preemptive conventional ground strike against a known foreign threat.
- 3The operation was primarily a diplomatic mission intended to avert conflict.
- 4India was completely unwilling to use military force and preferred negotiation exclusively.
Correct answer
The operation indicated a shift in military strategy towards targeted strikes with a lower risk of international escalation.
