As Groucho Marx observed "Military intelligence is a contradiction in terms.%u201D Indian intelligence services are uniformly underfunded, undertrained and ridden with the same mixture of incompetence and corruption as any other arm of the government of India. Who cares about some phone intercept? RAW failed comprehensively to give indian military forces advance warning of pakistani intentions. The army also failed to respond in time to the incursion. End result: pitched battles for useless frozen lumps of rock and wastage of a lot of fine infantry.
