Rumsfeld for airborne monitors

London June 10. The United States is likely to propose deployment of a helicopter-borne international monitoring force to monitor any infiltration of militants into Kashmir, a report today said here.

The proposed plan will be put forth by the U.S. Defence Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, during his visit to Islamabad and New Delhi this week, The Times reported.

The idea has been welcomed by Pakistan, but India remains opposed to any ``internationalisation'' of an internal matter. — PTI
