India-Pakistan tensions down, says Gen Kapoor
Daily Times Monitor
LAHORE: The tensions arising between India and Pakistan in the wake of the Mumbai terrorist attacks have come down now, a report in the Hindustan Times quoted Indian Army chief General Deepak Kapoor as saying on Saturday.
According to the paper, Kapoor said there had been extra movement of troops on the Pakistan side after the Mumbai attacks, as tensions between the two countries escalated.
At the same time, the terror infrastructure is very much in existence in Pakistan, he was quoted as saying.
Kapoor said the Indian military was fully prepared to act or react in the manner the countrys political leadership wanted it to in the wake of the Mumbai terror attacks.
As far as the military is concerned, it acts or reacts in a manner the countrys political leadership wants it to, Kapoor told reporters at the high security Badami Bagh headquarters of the armys 15 Corps in Srinagar.
He said infiltration could not be ruled out as the high Himalayan passes reopened after the winter.
The security forces are taking all possible precautions to check infiltration through a three-tier mechanism, he was reported as saying.
