Indian Army conducted surgical strikes on terror launch pads at the LOC on Wednesday night.
"Based on very specific and credible information which we received yesterday that some terrorist teams had positioned itself along the line of control, Indian Army carried out surgical strikes last night at these launch pads. The operations were focused to ensure that the terrorists do not succeed in endangering lives of citizens in our country. During the counter-terrorist operations, significant casualties have been caused to the terrorists and those who were trying to support them. The operations have since ceased," Director General of Military operations Lt. General Ranbir Singh said.
"We do not have any plans to continue. However the Indian Armed Forces are fully prepared to deal with any contingency which may arise. I have spoken to Pakistani DGMO and expressed our concern. It is India's intention to maintain peace and tranquillity in the region but we cannot certainly allow terrorists to operate across the Line of Control with impunity and attack our citizens," said the DGMO.
"After the Uri Terror Attack, people of India were outraged. PM has reassured nation that such acts will not be tolerated. Altleast now Pakistan will stop terrorism against India": Venkaiah Naidu, Union Minister said on surgical strikes by Indian Army on Pak Territory.
