MINISTER OF THE STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE
(SHRI A.K. ANTONY)
(a) & (b): There has been no report of breach of security and penetration into the Indian Army linked to Kathmandu
based Pakistani Intelligence Operatives during 2007. Army has an effective inbuilt Counter Intelligence mechanism in
place to detect, identify and neutralize hostile intelligence efforts. Comprehensive preventive measures are being
enforced and regular security review is carried out from time to time with a view to sensitize the environment for making
the security apparatus foolproof.
