Lt General DS Hooda, who oversaw the cross-border surgical strikes in September 2016 as the former Northern Command chief of the Army, has been roped in by the Congress to chair a task force on national security and prepare a vision document for the party in the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections.

Pakistan has increased the number of ceasefire violations along the Line of Control or LoC ever since India's surgical strikes against terror launch pads in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The Indian Army said on Monday that its "guard is up" and it will reply to any eventuality. This, they said, include Border Action Team or BAT attacks.
