Targeted killings to gain visibility: Army chief Gen Manoj Pande

Targeted killings in valley to gain visibility: Army chief Gen Manoj Pande

Targeted killings to gain visibility: Army chief Gen Manoj Pande
'People of J&amp;K have rejected violence'
'There is terror infrastructure on other side of border'

Gen Pande said, several proxy terrorist outfits have resorted to the technique of targetted killings to gain visibility.

Army chief General Manoj Pande attended the event organized to celebrate the Indian Army Day 2023 at Govindaswamy parade ground in Bengaluru.&nbsp;
Speaking at the event, Army chief said ceasefire continues at LOC in western border areas &amp; ceasefire violations have been brought down. However, terror infrastructure across the border still remains.&nbsp;
Gen Pande further said though there has been a decline in violence in the valley several proxy terrorist outfits have resorted to the technique of targetted killings to gain visibility. Army, along with other security forces, is determined to foil all such attempts, he added.&nbsp;

Maintaining a "higher level of operational preparedness at all time" and improving infrastructure, especially along the northern borders, were some of the key lessons from the eastern Ladakh border standoff, Army Chief General Manoj Pande said on Tuesday.
He said this in response to a question during an interaction held at India Defence Conclave here.
When asked by the host what was the next step after the recent disengagement of Indian and Chinese militaries from Patrolling Point 15 in the Gogra-Hotsprings area in eastern Ladakh, he said, "We have made progress in terms of disengagement from friction points. We still have two friction points where we need to move forward.
"We are hopeful as we move forward, talking through both military and diplomatic levels. And, I am sure we will be able to find resolution towards these friction points. That is our immediate aim to disengage from these friction points, before we look at to next step, of perhaps, de-escalation, which will involve pull back of troops." Asked about the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, the Army chief said, "The situation in J&amp;K is well under control." Also, the abrogation of Article 370 and the kind of "whole of nation approach" adopted have resulted in a "number of positives", he said.
"Besides, violence level has come down significantly. In the hinterland, protests or incidents of stone pelting have reduced,&rdquo; he said, adding that infiltration at LoC has come down.
The eastern Ladakh border standoff erupted on May 5, 2020, following a violent clash in the Pangong lake areas.
Indian and Chinese militaries on September 12 had moved back their frontline troops to the rear locations from the face-off site of Patrolling Point 15 in the Gogra-Hotsprings area in eastern Ladakh and dismantled temporary infrastructure there as part of a five-day disengagement process.
People familiar with the development had said the two sides disengaged as per the plan which also entailed a joint verification of the entire process.
Though the two sides disengaged from Patrolling Point 15, there has been no progress yet on resolving the standoff in Demchok and Depsang regions.
Asked what were the key lessons from the standoff, Gen Pande said, one was to "maintain a higher level of operational preparedness at all time".
"Also, importance of infrastructure development, especially along our northern borders, and I am also referring to areas opposite Arunachal Pradesh or the Eastern Sector, besides Ladakh," he added.
"We also realised that there is adequate scope for infusion of new technology, and that is something we need to leverage, to enhance our abilities to address challenges in the future," the Army chief said.
He said "we need to have a strategy to effectively operate in the grey zone as well, and build our capabilities".
Since May 2020, a significant amount of enhancement in Army's infrastructure, especially in the context of eastern Ladakh, has taken place, Gen Pande said.
The Army is also focussing on "creating infrastructure, road connectivity right up to the border, and have inter-valley connection", he said, in response to another question during the interaction.

India's Army chief made a startling revelation about the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir. Speaking at&nbsp;this year's edition of the Raisina Dialogue,&nbsp;General MM Naravane said, "There is definitely an increase in the number of weapons and other equipment, specially night-vision devices, that we're capturing or unearthing, which definitely have come from Afghanistan."
General MM Naravane's statement came amid increasing worry over Taliban rule in Afghanistan being dangerous for India.&nbsp;Recently, two terrorists who apparently spoke Pashto were killed in Sunjwan.&nbsp;This suggested that they were either from Afghanistan, or Pakistani areas bordering Afghanistan.
Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan in 2021 had sparked worry in India that Taliban fighters may be diverted to Kashmir by their patron Pakistan.&nbsp;While General Naravane said that Afghan fighters are not seen in Jammu and Kashmir, there's a "movement in that direction", and it's a major cause of concern.
The Raisina Dialogue is organised by the Observer Research Foundation and the Indian government.
