KOLHAPUR: Quoting a report of the Intelligence Bureau (IB), Army Chief Bipin Rawat asserted that Indian Army is very competent to check the infiltrators of terrorists in the Indian area, in the face of an increase in infiltration activity.
The Army Chief was here to attend an ex-servicemen’s rally organised by 109 Maratha TA Batalian on Wednesday evening.
Later, while talking to the media he said that in its report, the IB indicated that the Indian security system continues to remain very strong and capable to face any challenges from the terrorists, while saying that it was not suitable to disclose a confidential report before the media.
It is not clear thus far whether the use of sniper rifles would be undertaken by the terrorists, but we will use our AK-47 with the installation of modern camera equipments, Army Chief Rawat said while adding that the Army had also transformed its action plan in accordance with the constantly changing policy of the terrorists.
The Army Chief further added that the Naxals were targetting ordinary people but the central police was competent enough to fight them and there was no need of help from the Army to them.
Expressing dissatisfaction, he said that it was not proper to organise a rally for the demand of ‘one rank one pension’. (AGENCIES)
