Sir — This refers to the brain stormer, “Don’t be sad about Pulwama. Be angry” (June 27). I am sure that measures are in place to prevent ambushes like the one that happened in Pulwama. This incident calls for a review to strengthen the system of intensive and sustained intelligence gathering to locate safe area hideouts of the anti-nationals and their neutralisation as soon as they step out on their mission.

Also, intensive training should be provided to the paramilitary personnels employed in such areas. Their deployment on patrols to detect movements of such small groups will break the terrorists’ apparatus.
