However the key concern would be at the border where the armed forces would be kept busy. India is also watching the developments in Pakistan closely after a hardliner, Faiz Hameed took over as the chief of the ISI.

Officials say that the JeM is likely to use more VIED styled attacks in the future. The VIEDs, according to the JeM is a more lethal weapon. It does not involve an encounter and if it manages to hit the target, the casualties are also higher. Moreover, the other intention to use a VIED is also to do with the falling numbers of the JeM in the Valley, which today has an approximate strength of 30-40.
