With two major infiltration bids along the Line of Control in the last month, Army on Wednesday said it had 're-deployed' its troops and increased surveillance capabilities to prevent the terrorists' from crossing over into India.
"The Indian Army has done redeployment (of troops to counter infiltration).We have built in additional surveillance capabilities to look across LoC. We have deployed more technical equipment for surveillance even at most difficult places keeping the LoC under active patrolling and surveillance at all the times," Army Vice Chief Noble Thamburaj told media persons in New Delhi.
On the major infiltration bids by terrorists, he said, "In the last fortnight or month, there have been two major infiltration bids, which were partly successful but we in our second tier were able to neutralise most of them."
The Army Vice Chief said the region may witness a "defining moment" as Pakistan Army has started major operations against the Taliban militants.
Thamburaj said the Army had reports about "more" terrorists waiting to infiltrate into India.
"We have realised that there are some more terrorists who are waiting in their launch pads at their training camps to be launched (into India)," he said.
