"Pakistan hell-bent upon trying to revive terrorism in J-K": Defence Expert Anil Gaur

Jammu (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], July 27 (ANI): Defence Expert Captain (Retired) Anil Gaur said on Saturday that Pakistan is hell-bent upon trying to revive terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.
"Pakistan is hell-bent upon trying to revive terrorism here in Jammu and Kashmir. And it is not going to stop. We have seen that Pakistan has nothing to do except...these terrorist attacks," Gaur told ANI.
"Till the time we donot become pro-active, because, right from 1947 onwards to 2024, we have been reactive, and we have been reactive in the wars. Pakistan has started the wars," he added.
His comments came after the Indian Army foiled the Pakistan Border Action Team's (BAT) attack near the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Kupwara.
A group of two to three armed personnel coming from Pakistan side crossed the Line of Control and fired on a forward Army post from close proximity while taking advantage of bad weather and poor visibility in Machhal Sector in Jammu and Kashmir's Kupwara district.
One intruder was killed in the exchange of fire, while one Indian Army soldier injured in the encounter succumbed to his injuries.
The Public Relations Officer (Defence), Srinagar, said, "Taking advantage of bad weather and poor visibility along the Line of Control in Machhal Sector, a group of two to three armed personnel crossed the LC and fired on a forward Army post from close proximity. Alert troops responded vigorously and in the ensuing exchange of fire, one Pakistani intruder has been killed along with the recovery of weapons, ammunition, and war-like stores."
"Identification and affiliation of this Pakistani national are being ascertained," PRO said.
"During this intense fire exchange, two of our brave soldiers also suffered some grave injuries and were hence immediately evacuated to the Base Hospital at Srinagar. Unfortunately, one of these bravehearts has succumbed to his injuries. The other brave is responding well to treatment and care and is presently stable," the PRO added.
The PRO stated that in the past too, "similar attempts by infiltrators, actively aided and abetted by the Pakistani Army, have exploited thick foliage and poor visibility conditions but have always, as today, been successfully thwarted and disrupted."
"The Indian Army is firm in its resolve and commitment to maintain the sanctity of the Line of Control and defeat the nefarious and inimical designs of the Pakistan Army," the PRO added. (ANI)
