600-800 militants waiting to infiltrate: Army commander

New Delhi, June 13 (PTI) There is no let-up on Pakistan's
part to send terrorists from across the border and 600-800
militants were waiting to infiltrate, a top Indian Army
officer has said.
Northern Army Commander Lt General B S Jaswal, however,
said the Army has succeeded in keeping the infiltrators at bay
by adopting a three-pronged strategy.
"There is no let-up on the part of Pakistan in trying to
send across terrorists. But if you see the statistics this
year, they have not been able to make any inroads," he told
NDTV.
The top commander said 600-800 militants were waiting to
infiltrate from across the border.
He said according to the statistics, 70 militants had
infiltrated by this time last year while this year, only 12
could infiltrate as per the assessment.
Explaining the army's strategy to prevent infiltration,
Jaswal said, "First strategy is to ensure no one comes in.
Second is the intelligence base and the third is the defence
line and the anti-infiltration position". PTI
