New Delhi, Feb 8: The Indian Army has limited Pakistan’s mischief to just the border, giving a befitting reply to their misadventures, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said in the Rajya Sabha on Monday.
“Now Indian Army has restricted Pakistani mischief to the border. No praise is enough for the actions taken by the Army, BSF and other security forces in containing (Pakistan sponsored terrorist activities),” he said while replying during the Question Hour.
The minister stressed that there was no question of any lethargy while dealing with ceasefire violations by the neighbouring country. Asked why the government was “lethargic” and not taking stern action to stop the ceasefire violations, Singh said, “There is no question of lethargy. I want to make it clear that our Army has taken effective steps. They have done earlier also and I am not saying the Army is taking action after our government came to power.”
The minister also said it would not be appropriate to go into details about the steps being taken and weapons used to deal with ceasefire violations.
“But I would like to say this much that Pakistan violates ceasfire to infiltrate terrorists into Indian borders and also to bring them back. They keep trying this,” Singh said.
“You should have faith that our Army is taking effective steps at borders and responding to ceasefire violations,” he said. (PTI)
