The Border Security Force (BSF) has gunned down 15 Pakistan Rangers personnel and destroyed their two dozen Observation Towers and Border out Posts (BoPs)besides causing huge destruction to their set ups in the PoK [Pakistan occupied Kashmir] during the week, Daily Excelsior reported on October 28. Additional Director General of BSF Arun Kumar said the BSF has killed 15 Pakistani Rangers since the tensions flared up along the International Border (IB). He said several Observation Towers and BoPs of the Rangers have been razed to ground or damaged extensively in retaliatory firing by the BSF. Asserting that the way Pakistan shelling and firing was on, it was clear indication that the Pakistan Army has taken over the posts from the Rangers. “Firing and kind of ammunition used by Pakistan indicated that it was not their Rangers but army, which was firing upon Indian posts and forward locations,” he said. Kumar said the BSF has lost its third soldier after the sniping incident at Bobiya Post in Hiranagar sector of Kathua District in which Gurnam Singh was martyred followed by head constable Sushil Kumar and now Jatinder Singh, both of whom were killed at Abdullian in RS Pura. Three other BSF jawans have been injured, he added.Official sources said that Army has devised a new strategy to counter shelling from Pakistan side to save civilian population and own losses. The Army was now targeting and decimating Pakistani posts, which were raining mortars on civilian population. “Our troops are now going for the kill. They are decimating the posts of the Army across LoC [Line of Control] in Nowshera, Sunderbani, Mendhar, Balakote, Mankote and Tarkundi in twin border districts of Rajouri and Poonch, which were worst hit by mortar shelling, to avoid civilian casualties. After decimating the Pakistani posts, the Army was not allowing Pakistani troops to re-construct the posts by engaging them. In number of areas, the Pakistan army jawans have been either killed or injured when their posts were decimated while others have run far behind for cover,” sources said, adding this strategy of the troops has saved many civilian lives as they were targeting civilian population with heavy mortars and automatic weapons. This way, sources confirmed, a number of Pakistani Posts have been completely destroyed and Pakistani troops have abandoned those areas as there was no other cover for them. The shelling in some of the villages has stopped after decimation of these posts, they said.
