According to a press release issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army chief during his visit to the formations praised the state of readiness of the forces "for response against any conventional threat".
The army chief's visit comes in the backdrop of heightened tensions between India and Pakistan. On Thursday, the Indian forces' unprovoked aggression across the Line of Control (LoC) had resulted in the martyrdom of two Pakistan Army soldiers. Pakistan Army had effectively responded to Indian shelling.
