Around 2,500 militants camping in PoK, Pakistan: Army
On the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir, the Army Commander said it was good.
"Violence parameters have been down in 2011. Last year was a fruitful year. We had a fair amount of peace in the state," he said.
"The borderline is secured and we have put in place a multi-tier anti-infiltration grid," the Army Commander said.
"A lot of militant leaders have been killed in 2011 and more such leaders are expected to be eliminated this year," he said.
Regarding a report about Lashker-e-Toiba (LeT) setting up a women suicide squad, the Army Commander said "we keep getting such type of reports from intelligence sources."
"This report needs to be corroborated. We have not shared this report with the state government or anybody else – there is need for more time to corroborate it."
