Troops from NE should not be withdrawn: Shekhatkar
Assam Tribune | R Dutta Choudhury | Guwahati, Sept 20
The Government of India should not withdraw troops from the northeastern part of the country even if the level of violence increases in Jammu and Kashmir as the possibility of China creating trouble in the Northeast directly or indirectly cannot be ruled out. This was the view expressed by security analyst and former GoC of the 4 Corps of the Army, Lt Gen (Retd) DB Shekhatkar.
Lt Gen Shekhatkar pointed out that if troops are withdrawn from the Northeast following escalation of violence in Jammu and Kashmir, China can very well use such tactics again. Moreover, as a number of militant groups active in the Northeast have close links with Chinese officials, the ultras may also be asked to step up the level of violence to keep the troops busy in the region, he pointed out.
