NEW DELHI, June 13: Northern army commander Lt Gen B S Jaswal has said 600-800 were waiting in Pakistan for an opportune moment to cross over into the Indian territory. There was no let-up on Pakistan's part to push terrorists into India, he added. Lt General Jaswal, however, said army had succeeded in keeping the infiltrators at bay by adopting a three-pronged strategy. "There is no let-up on the part of Pakistan in trying to send across
terrorists. But if you see the statistics this year, they have not been able to make any inroads," he told a TV channel. He said 600-800 militants were waiting to infiltrate from across the border. He said according to the statistics, 70 militants had infiltrated by this time last year while this year, only 12 could infiltrate as per the assessment. Explaining army's strategy to prevent infiltration, Jaswal said, "First strategy is to ensure no one comes in. Second is the intelligence base and the third is the defence line and the anti-infiltration position".
