The Indian Navy has put its warships and bases on high alert in light of a possible terror attack by Pakistan backed terrorists via the sea, ANI has reported.
This state of high alert being maintained on the eastern and western seaboards of the country is also part of directives issued by the government following the abolition of Article 370.
As per reports, the Navy is carrying out radar surveillance throughout the coastal stretch and assets have been positioned at critical stretches for lookout.
Terrorists like Rauf Azgar the brother of Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar are reported to have been moved to Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (POK) by his handlers as per Indian intelligence agencies.
Since Article 370’s abrogation, Pakistan has tried to take an aggressive posture by suspending bilateral trade between the two countries and downgrading diplomatic relations. It has also decided to stop Samjhauta and Thar expresses operating between the two countries.
