The Poonch problem, being south of Pir Panjal and being dominated by Pakis sitting at heights, the district and areas around It has been an everygreen infiltration route i.e. 365 days 24x7 this route is open for infiltration unlike the North of Pir Panjal routes.
Here is an overview of poonch towns seen on Google maps, the rides on the North is covered with Paki posts and the see everything in the town, near LoC.
The red line is Paki, posts alignment on the ridge, they sit North of the town near LoC and dominate the area south.
Typical Paki, post.
Indian positions slightly eastern ridge, the barbed wire fence can be seen here, south of this forward post of our Army.
The areas north of this post is dense forest, no man's land. It is very hard to do observation here and make full proof LoC fence in Jungle. So the patrolling parties has to be sent inside to keep vigil.
Possible routes taken by patrolling parties in the nallas, since the area is heavily forested an ambush party can easily infiltrate for BAT raid on patrolling party.
Solution to this problem ? I don't think there is any solution without breaching the LoC and capturing the higher ridges and dominate Pakis in this area to stop the infiltration once for all in south of Pir Panjal area.
Indian positions south of Poonch, in Rajouri, Krishna ghati etc is good, and our forces sit over Paki town of Bhattal, Nakyal etc.
