Infiltration still continuing: Advani

Deputy Prime Minister Lal Kishenchand Advani on Sunday asserted that India's aim was to "win the war imposed by Pakistan" in Jammu and Kashmir, where terrorist activities had reduced but not fully stopped.

"We will take some time to assess the situation there. Reduction in terrorist attacks does not mean intruders are not coming. They may be lying low for the time being," he told a news conference in Ahmedabad.

Replying to questions, he said the government had slowly controlled cross-border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf's language had changed, as he was now describing the killing of innocents as act of terrorism, not freedom struggle. "However, his deeds would have to be observed," he said.

Asked about the proposal for joint patrolling of Indo-Pak borders, Advani said the neighbouring country did not support it and hence the matter ended there.
