ISLAMABAD, Oct 18: Director General ISPR General Rashid Qureshi said on Thursday that Indians know well that if they resort to any adventure they will suffer tremendous losses.

India is seeking to gain attention in the wake of September 11 events but the “limit to which Indians are going, I am afraid they will have to face the consequences,” he said while speaking in PTV programme ‘Current Affairs Time.’

Gen. Qureshi said “we cannot ignore completely that there have been movements of troops in occupied Kashmir, where there are already more than 650,000 troops.”

After the incidents of firing, we picked troops movement which are far from the ordinary including movement of aircraft to forward areas where they (Indians) normally do not go, so when India tries to camouflage that by saying these are routine movement, that is incorrect so therefore, there is a real threat here,” he added.

He said recently rehabilitated Indian Defence Minister, George Fernandus is trying to justify his recent appointment by resorting to rhetoric.

To a question he said that Pakistan is alive to everything that is going on both the eastern and western borders.

LOC SITUATION: Pakistani and Indian troops exchanged fire across the Line of Control (LoC) on Thursday and 25 people were killed in clashes in occupied Kashmir, adds AFP.
