New Delhi, 15/1: The Indian Army has maintained a strong defence posture along the Line of Actual Control and is prepared to face any contingency, Chief of Army Staff General Manoj Pande said on Sunday. He was addressing a gathering during the 75th Army Day celebrations, held at the Madras Engineering Group and Centre.
While the ceasefire violations along the western border region have come down, the terror infrastructure across the border is still functional. The CoAS said the Army’s counter-infiltration grid has been consistently scuttling attempted infiltration from across the border. Counter-drone jammers and spoofers are being used to beat efforts to smuggle in arms and drugs through the international border sectors in Jammu and Punjab, he said.
