Union Defence Minister Arun Jaitley
New Delhi: Apparently with China in mind, Union defence minister Arun Jaitley on Friday said the Centre is taking all steps to create matching infrastructure on the Indian side to realise its military potential.
Noting that “our immediate neighbours have already enhanced infrastructure in proximity to the borders”, Mr Jaitley said the government has initiated steps to overcome road blocks such as procedural delays, environmental clearance and shortage of high-technology equipment to hasten the process of building roads in these critical areas.
The minister was addressing the first meeting of the consultative committee attached to his ministry.
