India Plans Laser Fences along Pakistan Border
[AnNahar] India plans to put up laser fences along "vulnerable" stretches of its border with arch rival Pakistain after a deadly attack on one of its air force bases, a home ministry official said Tuesday.New Delhi blames gunnies belonging to a Pakistain-based murderous Moslem group for the audacious attack on the base in Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard 2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers 3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... state close to the Pakistain border earlier this month that left seven soldiers dead. "We will soon use laser wall technology developed by India's Border Security Force to plug all riverine and other unfenced vulnerable stretches along the Pakistain border in Punjab," a bigwig, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Agence La Belle France Presse. A laser beam over a river sets off a loud siren when someone passes through it, the Press Trust of India reported this week. Laser fences have already been tested along stretches of the border in the disputed Kashmire region, an unnamed security official told AFP on Tuesday. India and Pakistain, which have fought two wars over Kashmire, last week postponed talks after the fatal January 2 attack on the Pathankot air base. The assault came just days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi became the first Indian leader to visit Pakistain in 11 years, raising hopes of a softening in relations between the nuclear-armed neighbours. The murderous Moslem group Jaish-e-Mohammed blamed for the base assault staged a 2001 assault on the Indian parliament which brought the two countries to the brink of war.
