Shares
NEW DELHI: Indian Army chief General Bipin Rawat has said his force is grappling with a "dirty, proxy war" in Jammu & Kashmir, which has to be fought through innovative means, while once again defending the controversial use of a "human shield" by Major Leetul Gogoi to prevent bloodshed in Budgam district last month, reported Times of India.
In an interview to PTI, Gen Rawat said the award of the chief of army staff (COAS) commendation card to Major Gogoi even before finalisation of the court of inquiry into the episode was meant to boost the morale of young officers and soldiers engaged in counter-terrorism operations in the Kashmir Valley.
