Antony says, Army is raising two new mountain divisions in the North-East

Defence Minister A K Antony has said the Army is raising two new mountain divisions in the North-East, along the borders with China, but dismissed suggestions that the move is against the neighbour. Addressing a press conference on the occasion of the Sixth Defence Expo in New Delhi on Monday, he said, these are being raised under the overall policies to strengthen the presence of the armed forces in the North-East. The Defence Minister asserted that India is not a war- mongering country and has not invaded even an inch of soil of any other country ever but added that the country will defend every inch of its territory.
