KNOWLEDGE SIR

Indian Army

Fearing retaliatory action by the Indian Army at Line of Control, Pakistan Army is preparing to buy huge amounts of ammunition from abroad. Pakistan has made a deal for purchase of nearly one lakh shells for its 121 Howitzer guns from Italy. According to intelligence reports, Italy has assured to provide these shells to Pakistan soon.
It is worth mentioning that soon after India struck a government-to-government deal with the US in November 2017 for the supply of the 145 howitzers at a cost of nearly Rs 5,000 crore, Pakistan bought 121 Howitzer from Italy. India has only received 2 M777 guns so far from the US. 
Intelligence agencies are trying to find out the motive of behind the purchase of these one lakh shells. 
"Our agencies are trying to find out why Pakistan is procuring about one lakh shells from Italy and where they are planning to use it", said an officer posted in the central security establishment.

The Pakistan Army has repeatedly violated the ceasefire at LoC in recent days. The year 2018 witnessed the highest number of 2,936 ceasefire violations by Pakistan troops in the last 15 years along the Indo-Pak border.
Indian Army has been giving a befitting reply to the ceasefire violations by the Pakistani Army. The counter-action by the Indian Army has caused a lot of damage for Pakistan. On January 16, the Indian soldiers gunned down five Pakistani troops while destroying seven of their bunkers in retaliatory action in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch sector.
Lt Gen Ranbir Singh, Chief of the Northern Command, said on Thursday that the Indian Army is always one step ahead of the Pakistani army and they are giving a befitting reply to Pakistan's ceasefire violations.
