Using the ‘Kacha’ established road instead of making cross-country should be avoided if possible, or done with extreme caution, as established roads are often used by extremists for ambushes or planting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).

Established routes, especially unpaved (Kacha) roads, are predictable lines of movement and thus pose a higher risk of ambush or IEDs in extremist-affected areas.

While using established roads can be faster, patrolling parties in high-risk areas often vary their routes, use cross-country movement where feasible and tactically sound, and maintain strict vigilance for signs of tampering, mines, or IEDs on any path they use. Maintaining proper distance between elements and situational awareness within the formation are standard and necessary patrolling practices.
