LAL BAHADUR SHASTRI

The Rann of Kutch

It had become Pakistan's habit to provoke India somehow and jump to arms.

Pakisthan had been waiting to swallow Kashmir somehow. She pushed her forces across the eastern border into the Rann of kuch in Gujarat State in April-May of 1965. Lal Bahadur was not unnerved by this unexpected attack. He faced the problem with great tact at that critical moment. The Indian Army forced the attackers to retreat. Then both countries agreed to stop fighting.
