If Pakistan doesn’t mend its ways, we will cross LoC once again: Satya Pal Malik

The Indian troops on Sunday used Artillery guns to target militant launch pads near LoC, in which at least three launch pads in PoK were hit in retaliatory action by the Indian troops from this side, news agency UNI said.

Following the action by Indian troops, the Jammu&Kashmir governor on Monday said, “We will completely eliminate the terror camps. If they(Pakistan) doesn’t mend its ways, we will cross the border once again.”

On Sunday, Army Chief Vipin Rawat had apprised about Indian Army’s retaliatory action after Pakistan in the morning violated the ceasefire and resorted to indiscriminate firing, in which two soldiers and a civilian were killed and three villagers were injured at Tangdhar sector in the frontier district of Kupwara.

''On the basis of reports, 6-10 Pakistani soldiers have been killed, three camps destroyed and a similar number of terrorists killed. Indian troops used Artillery guns to target the militant launch pads near LoC.

''Ever since Article 370 was abrogated from J&K, we have been getting repeated inputs of infiltration by terrorists from across the border to disturb peace & harmony in the state.''

He also accused some people of destabilising the state.

“Gradually, things are returning to normalcy in the valley but obviously there is somebody who is working behind the scenes at the behest of terrorists and agencies that are some within and some outside country in Pakistan and PoK, who're trying to disrupt the peaceful atmosphere,” he added.

He said that the Indian Army had information that terrorists were inching towards Indian camps in Jammu and Kashmir.

“Of late, we had info that terrorists are coming closer to camps in the forward areas. In the last 1 month, we have seen repeated attempts from different sectors to infiltrate terrorists,” Gen Rawat said.

He also said that severe damage was done to terrorist infrastructure across LoC.
