A Pakistani journalist Dr Shahid Masood has waded into controversy by calling India’s National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval less capable than a Pakistani chaprasi, dhobhi or bhangi.
The video below shows Dr.Shahid Masood on News One channel advising Ajit Doval that he should hire a Pakistani chaprasi, or a dhobhi or a bhangi, who can plan better than he does.
He also says he had met Ajit Doval in a conference in 2005.
Taking part in a live debate, Dr. Shahid Masood’s contended that the Gurdaspur operation, in which three terrorists who had crossed over from Pakistan were killed, was actually an Indian RAW operation.
He claimed that the CCTV footage first showed a clean shaven man, while the bodies which were later brought out were that of bearded men wearing salwar kameez.

It can come as no surprise that Ajit Doval is not very popular in Pakistan.
After all, he has very effectively engaged Pakistan during his tenure in the Intelligence Bureau.
During Operation Black Thunder-II that was launched to flush out militants from the Golden Temple, he posed as a Pakistani agent to get in touch with Khalistani militant leaders.
He weaned away militants such as Kuka Parray in Kashmir, turning them into counter-terrorism assets for Indian security agencies.
It has been reported that he lived incognito in Pakistan for many years at high risk providing real time intelligence on Pakistan’s Kahuta nuclear plant to Indian agencies.
