As many as 20 to 30 militant-training camps are operating in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), very close to the Line of Control (LoC). General Officer Commanding, 16 Corps, Lt Gen DS Hooda, made this disclosure to mediapersons on the sidelines of the Veterans Rally at Kalakote in Rajouri today. The Army has stepped up vigil to prevent any infiltration bid, he said.
“As many as 200 militants are waiting at the launching pads to infiltrate into India,” he said.
He said militants were being given different kinds of training at these camps. He said 200 Pakistan-trained infiltrators were also waiting across the LoC to enter into India.
The Army is maintaining high alert on the LoC and the international border and surveillance has also been enhanced to prevent any infiltration bid, Hooda said.
“We are on a high alert and confident to handle any situation,” he said. “Fencing on the Line of Control in the Poonch sector has also been damaged and the restoration work is on,” he said.
He said it was early to ascertain whether or not Rajouri and Poonch had become militancy-free zones.
He said, “The situation in Rajouri and Poonch is better than what it was in the 1990s. Militants are waiting across the fence and we need to remain cautious.”
About Chinese intrusion in the PoK, he said “There are some reports of developmental works taking place in the PoK by the Chinese, but details are not known.”
