NEW DELHI: Indian security agencies are planning to set up their own specialised commando units along the Indo-Pak border to deal with the the rising incursions of Pakistans Border Action Teams along IB and the Line of Control.
Deccan Chronicle quoting highly placed intelligence sources, reported on Tuesday that there is a growing view within the new BJP-led NDA government that Pakistani forces and militant outfits operating out of their soil need to be given a terse message irrespective of the recent diplomatic overtures between the two countries.
The office of the national security adviser, which is in the process of being made more internal security oriented with a greater mandate to deal firmly with the vexed issue of terrorism, is likely to play a significant role in the new security deployment pattern along one of Indias most critical borders, the report said.
In the past, Pakistans BAT, a mix of Pakistan Army regulars and militants, have entered into Indian territory severing the heads of soldiers. The new government is now planning to deal with the issue by having their own specialised commando units in the border area.
