The security grid across Rajouri-Ponch has been strengthened, following a fresh infiltration attempt by militants on the Line of Control (LoC) in the Hamirpur area of Balakote in the Bhimber Gali sector on January 3.
“Infiltration attempt has given authenticity to the apprehension of intelligence agencies which have warned about more such attempts in the days to come. Therefore, the security grid has been asked to ensure all arrangements in place besides maintaining the highest degree of alertness,” official sources said.
Keeping in view this fresh infiltration attempt as well as alert issued by intelligence agencies, every measure to bolster the security grid has been adopted. All the infiltration routes on the LoC are being closely monitored through human as well as technical means, the official sources added.
The Indian Army after preventing the infiltration attempt said, “Indian army is vigilant and alert to the nefarious designs of Pakistan’s sponsored terrorists and determined to thwart any such attempts.”
