India to install advanced American ground sensors on LoC

India on Wednesday announced it had given the go ahead to install advanced American ground sensors on the Line of Control to verify Islamabad's claims on ending infiltration.

"A decision has been made to install the ground sensors though no formal talks on the induction process had yet begun with the United States," Defence Minister George Fernandes told reporters in Delhi.

The deployment of ground sensors had been mooted by US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld during his just-concluded visit to India as an effective means for New Delhi to monitor infiltration along the LoC.
