 Ayub ordered secret operation without telling PAF
Without taking Pakistan's air force and navy into confidence, former military ruler Ayub Khan launched a secret operation in 1965 to send infiltrators into Jammu and Kashmir on the 'mistaken notion' that India would not go to war on all fronts, according to an ex-air force chief.
Khan said the PAF and navy were not taken into confidence by the top army command as they secretly started to send infiltrators into Kashmir, an operation which finally led to a Pakistan-India war in 1965.
He said the decision to send infiltrators into Kashmir in 1965 was taken by the then President, field marshal Muhammad Ayub Khan, commander-in-chief of the armed forces, Gen Muhammad Musa Khan and the divisional commander with some in cabinet and the foreign ministry also being on board.

The controversy has resurfaced two years after Ayub’s son Gohar claimed that his father had given him the name of an Indian Director of Military Operations from the 1950s who had sold the country’s war plans to the Pakistanis for Rs 20,000.
However, at that time the claims were dismissed, though media kept the issue abuzz and zeroed in on six Army officers who had served as DMO during the period.
