Defence Minister A K Antony on Monday said the government was "examining all pros and cons of various aspects" of deploying army in anti-Naxalite operations in the country.
While making it clear that government had not taken any decision in the matter so far, he said, "we are carefully examining all pros and cons of various aspects and once a decision is made, it will be binding on the military."
"The armed forces will also accept whatever decision government takes" and implement it with vigour, Antony added.
Antony, interacting with the media after taking salute at the passing out parade of 118th course of National Defence Academy (NDA) at Khadakwasla, about 20 kms from here, refuted a suggestion that the Union cabinet was split over the issue of bringing in the armed forces to combat the Naxal violence.
Denying that the matter came up for discussion during his recent meeting with Army Chief General V K Singh, Antony said it was a routine call.
