The Army started operation along the India-Pakistan border in Kashmir following reports of infiltration bid by terrorists.
Infiltration attempts by terrorists increase during monsoons in Kashmir as they take advantage of fog that covers the entire area making it easier for them to sneak into the Indian territory.
