Samba attack an attempt by militants to raise their low morale: Manohar Parrikar

The two back-to-back terror attacks in Jammu is an
attempt by the militants to boost their morale, which has come down
due to the Army operations, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar today
said.
"When the morale of the opponents are down, they make such
attempts to boost it," Parrikar said replying to questions about the
attack by militants in Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday.
Stating that the International Border has many "nallas", he said at
times it is difficult to man the area completely.
The IB comes under the purview of the BSF.
Giving figures, Parrikar said that about 26 militants have been killed
this year by the Army with only one loss from its side.
He said this proves that the Army was doing better and that
intelligence has also improved.
Terror had again struck Jammu today where militants opened fire at an
army camp on Jammu-Pathankot Highway in Samba district.
Parrikar said the two terrorists have been killed.
Yesterday, 'fidayeen' militants in army fatigues had stormed a police
station in Jammu's Kathua, killing three security personnel and two
civilians, and leaving 11 others including Deputy SP wounded.
Two militants were also killed in the gun battle.
