Raksha Rajya Mantri Shri Ajay Bhatt on Monday told the Parliament that the situation along Line of Control remains stable post the Directorate General of Military Operations (DGsMO) Understanding of February 2021.
He said that both the Armies have exercised restraint in the interest of maintaining peace along the LC.
“However, the situation is being closely monitored and the Indian Army remains prepared to thwart any threat from inimical elements as also to respond in case of any escalation along the Line of Control”, he added.
The minister said that though the security situation along Western Borders (IB Sector) remains largely stable, there are indications of an emerging narco-terror nexus sponsored by inimical elements across the border aimed at causing instability, especially along with border areas.
He said our forces along Western borders are adequately poised to respond to any challenge posed by adversaries across the entire conflict spectrum.
