Despite winter setting in, no reduction in infiltration attempts along LoC: Army
2023-11-21

...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
e] The Indian Army on Thursday said despite winter setting in, there was no reduction in infiltration attempts made by the forces of Evil across the Line of Control (LoC) in Uri sector of Baramulla district.

Col Raghav Commanding Officer 8RR was briefing media persons about operation Kali wherein a major infiltration bid was foiled along LoC on November 15.

The Army officer said that Operation Kaali, a joint effort between the Indian Army and Jammu and Kashmir Police, successfully thwarted an infiltration bid in the Uri sector along the Line of Control (LoC) on November 15.

"This operation led to significant casualties among forces of Evil and the recovery of various warlike supplies," the Army Officer said.

He said that Operation Kaali was initiated based on intelligence from our sources and the Srinagar bureau. Upon receiving intelligence, the Indian Army strengthened its counter-infiltration and surveillance grids in the area.

"Joint operation parties were deployed, and in the early hours of November 15, our surveillance tracked the movement of forces of Evil across the LoC," he said

The Army Officer said that upon infiltrating, the forces of Evil were engaged, leading to a exchange of gunfire.

"Following the exchange, a detailed search of the area revealed numerous terrorist casualties, though the exact number remains unconfirmed due to the proximity to the LoC," he said.

The officer said two bodies were recovered, along with warlike stores, including AK series rifles, two pistols, few Chinese grenades, ammunition, medical supplies, eatables, Pak currency, and identification papers.

"A significant outcome of the operation was the elimination of Bashir Ahmad Malik and his lover companion Ahmad Gani Sheikh," he said.

He said Malik, a prominent figure in cross-border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, served as a launch commander aiding infiltrations for the past three decades.

"He played a key role in facilitating infiltrations across the LoC, resulting in the loss of numerous Indian lives, including those of the armed forces. Malik’s demise deals a severe blow to the terror infrastructure operating across the LoC," he said.

He said the recent incident shows the desperation of forces of Evil to infiltrate to this side despite winter season setting in.

"But Indian Army is well prepared to foil all their attempts," he said.
