Army gains in J&K not capitalized on: Army Chief


Srinagar,Jul 12 (KMW): Army Chief Gen V K Singh has said the gains made by security forces and the Army in Kashmir had not been consolidated and ''capitalized on'' and that several measures needed be taken to control the situation in the valley. In an interview with NDTV, the Army Chief said the situation in Kashmir had been tense for quite some time now for many reasons. ''The basic reason has been that we have not been able to build up on the gains that we have made over a period of time.'' He said the Army had done a lot of work to restore normalcy in the valley and situation had been brought to a particular level when other initiatives should have been taken. He said people were passing instructions and separatists were able to garner support. ''I think the population is fairly gullible...they take it as they see,'' he added.
