No Pakistani military build-up on borders: India

14 Jan, 2009

There was no military build-up by Pakistan on the borders, said Indian Army's Western Commander Lieutenant General T K Sapru on Tuesday. It only seems like routine movements and exercise-related relocation of troops by Pakistan and not a build-up. But we are always ready for any situation, he told reporters here on the sidelines of a function.
Sapru said infiltration from across the Line of Control had gone down since 2005-06. "Infiltration has in the last two or three years come down considerably. Perhaps, after 2005-06, it has come down from 400 to 20/30 in a year," he added.
