Army deployed in WB, Northeastern states as part of routine exercise: Defence Minister

NEW DELHI: Army deployed in West Bengal, Northeastern states as
part of routine exercise said Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar in LS.
Parrikar denies TMC claims that district authos were
not taken into confidence, says dates shifted at request of Kolkata Police.
Unfortunate that Army being brought into unnecessary
controversy said Parrikar on army deployment in West Bengal toll plazas.
It is political frustration rather than projection of
correct situation says Parrikar.
