On the second day of his visit to Jammu & Kashmir, Defence Minister AK Antony on Sunday (29 July 2012) visited a
forward post in the Kupwara sector, accompanied by the Chief of Army Staff Gen
Bikram Singh, Defence Secretary Shashi Kant Sharma, Northern Army Commander Lt
Gen KT Parnaik and other senior military and civil officials. Antony was
briefed about the infiltration pattern of militants in the sector and the
measures being taken by the Army to prevent such attempts. Antony spent some
time with the troops and asked about their welfare. He asked them about the
quality of rations, clothing and shoes
they were getting and whether they were satisfied with it. The Ministry
of Defence has taken several measures in the last few years to improve the
quality of supplies to the jawans posted in remote locations. The minister has
since returned to New Delhi.
