New Delhi, Jan 13: General Bipin Rawat has categorically asserted that the Indian Army may go for more surgical strikes whenever the situation on the ground along LoC will demand such action.
Addressing a press conference today Gen Rawat said that in the recent time the ceasefire violations have come down but if not then, we will opt for such surgical strike measures. Infiltration attempts are being regularly made, the day before yesterday two terrorists were killed near Line of Control in Poonch,he said
Elaborating on the possibility of further surgical strikes, Gen Rawat said that first one needs to understand why a surgical strike was conducted in September last year.The motive behind surgical strike needs to be understood if we don't get the correct message from the other side, if we see that infiltration is being encouraged then it will happen again, he added.(Inputs from agencies)
