NEW DELHI (PTI): Home Minister S.B. Chavan on June 14 described as “absolutely false the Pakistan allegation that India was sending infiltrators to create problems in the Sind province.

Chavan told reporters here the allegation of Pakistan was an excuse to send more militants into Punjab and Kashmir

He said Pakistan was bent upon creating problems in India and “my Political understanding is that Pakistan can use Afghan Mujahedeen to intensify terrorism — in the two Border States.”

The security forces deployed along the Indo-Pak border were alert and were capable of foiling any attempts to push infiltrators into India. Chavan said.
