| New Delhi will "not dilute" the army presence in Indian-held Kashmir (IHK) until the situation in the region has stabilised, State Minister for Defence MM Pallam Raju said on Monday. "We will not dilute the presence of the forces until we are absolutely certain that there is no further threat to the country," the Indian Express quoted him as saying. He said reports that arrested Lashkar-e-Tayyaba had revealed terrorist plans to mount attacks on India proved it was premature to withdraw forces from there. The Indian government would inquire about ammunition stamped with "Made in India" that was found in Swat, he added. |
