'India should carry out Myanmar-type op in PoK'

July 04, 2015 18:37

A BJP MLA in Jammu and Kashmir demanded that the Centre adopt a "proactive policy" and allow the army to carry out a Myanmar-type operation against the terrorist training camps across the LoC.

"In the recent days, there have been inputs by the army intelligence, RAW and other intelligence agencies that the

militants, who earlier were being trained by the ISI and the Pakistani Army, are now being trained by members of terror

outfits like the Islamic State," Ravinder Raina, the BJP MLA from Sunderbani, said.

"The Islamic State has already entered the training camps in PoK as they have made a major base in neighbouring

Afghanistan" and its members are training the militants in the PoK camps, he claimed.

"As you know that a few days ago, the Indian Army entered Myanmar and destroyed the terror infrastructure there. Now the

army must replicate the same and enter PoK and destroy the terrorist infrastructure in that region," he said.
