SRINAGAR, Nov 23: “Considerably” fewer militants are entering Kashmir because India has put more troops and better technology on the disputed border with Pakistan, a top army official said on Sunday.
“Infiltration has come down considerably with the strengthening of deployment along the Line of Control (LoC) and use of the latest surveillance gadgets,” said Lt-Gen Hari Prasad.
He said Indian troops in the past six months made 93 interceptions on the LoC killing 300 militants. He did not give comparative figures for other time periods.—AFP
