India requisitions trains for troop transport to Kashmir
2001-12-17
  • Five special trains were requisitioned by the Indian Army for troop movement to Jammu. This is in response to reports about Pakistan massing two corps along the international border and Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir over the last 72 hours. The Pakistan Army has also reportedly moved heavy armor and artillery to the border, and cancelled the leaves. The Indian armed forces have been put on "high-alert" after the 10th and 30th Corps of the Pakistan Army were deployed in strike formations along the border. Pakland still isn't taking this seriously, or Musharraf is playing to the fundos and expecting India to back down. Pak didn't show to good effect during the Bangladesh War and India's probably got the Pak nukes targeted at this very moment. This is a real flash point, and the rest of the world isn't following it really close.
