India on infiltration alert in Kashmir after quake**

NEW DELHI: Indian troops are on heightened alert to prevent militants from taking advantage of the chaos in quake-shattered Kashmir and crossing the border in the divided territory, the military said on Sunday.

“We have stepped up guard at the Line of Control and nearly 25 militants were killed during infiltration bids in the last 10 days,” General JJ Singh was quoted by the Press Trust of India as saying.

He said that troops engaged in relief work in the earthquake-devastated areas were keeping an eye out for militants trying to sneak into Indian Kashmir.

“Militants have made about five infiltration attempts since the October 8 earthquake, including two in a single day,” Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee told reporters on the sidelines of a conference in New Delhi. “Some of them wanted to take advantage of the disturbed situation.”

The defence minister said that the presence of civilians among the troops for rescue and relief work could help the militants cross the de facto border. Mukherjee said that the next five to seven days could see more crossing attempts, after which infiltration will become difficult due to winter snowfall blocking mountain passes.

The defence minister said that India was also trying to verify reports that several militant hideouts in the Pakistani zone of Kashmir had been destroyed in the quake.

Indians and their obsession with ISI. Get over it. Mukherjee has Pakistan phobia anyway, just like the whole Indian establishment, who cares.
