Indian army chief again threatens Pakistan of surgical strikes


NEW DELHI: Indian Army chief General Bipin Rawat on Friday again resorted to threaten Pakistan over alleged cross-border attacks, saying India will give Pakistan a reply “sooner rather than later” for the February 10 terror attack on a military camp in Jammu. Soon after the incident, Indian Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had said that Pakistan, which she accused of backing the attackers, would pay for its “misadventure”. Indian COAS said that he would order a ceasefire at the Line of Control (LoC) as soon as Pakistan stops sending militants to India. “The Indian Army will honour the ceasefire and de-escalate tensions the day Pakistan stops sending terrorists across the line of control,” Rawat said, referring to the 2003 agreement put in place as a confidence-building measure. The pelting continues.”He defended the military action, saying stone-pelters were hampering military operations.
