Committed to wipe out terrorism from Rajouri-Poonch belt : DGP

editor Leave a comment

JAMMU: Director General of Police RR Swain acknowledged on Saturday that there are foreign terrorists operating in the Rajouri-Poonch belt of Jammu and Kashmir. However, he stated that security forces are dedicated to eliminating terrorism from the Pir Panjal region's southern region. This year has seen a spike in terror attacks in the Jammu region's twin districts of Rajouri and Poonch, which has resulted in the deaths of seven civilians and 19 Army personnel. Up to 25 terrorists have also been slain in clashes, the majority of which occurred along the Line of Control (LoC), as security forces have thwarted multiple attempts at infiltration. "The Rajouri-Poonch belt is in a secure situation, but we would prefer not to talk about our plan in public. The police chief told reporters in Jammu, "There is no doubt about it, but it is important for the public to know that there are primarily foreign terrorists operating within our territory with some degree of support from some selected persons." Though it is difficult to identify these "very very limited" individuals who are with the terrorists and do not live in their homes but rather hide in the forests, Swain stated that the number of supporters of terrorism is "very very limited." Information flow becomes limited when terrorists operate out of deep forest hideouts, according to the police chief.It is undoubtedly difficult, but we are fighting back with all of our might and resources," Swain remarked. He said that the forces are aware of the threat posed by terrorism and are determined to deal with it head-on and eradicate it before it grows. According to the head of police, from 1997 to 2003–2004, there was peace in the area and no terrorist activity. "We are aware of that circumstance as well as this circumstance. There is a chasm, and we won't permit it to be crossed in their favour," Swain declared.

“Biggest threat here is…”: Mehbooba Mufti after being stopped by police over security reasons

editor Leave a comment

POONCH: Due to security concerns, Mehbooba Mufti, the leader of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), was stopped by the police on DKG road in Poonch, Jammu and Kashmir. She was travelling to meet the relatives of those killed close to the site of an anti-terrorist operation in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district. As Mehbooba Mufti and her supporters attempted to move forward, they were observed fighting with multiple police officers. Mehbooba and her supporters protested the situation after it happened to show their displeasure. Mufti questioned the limitations placed upon her, pointing out that other political party leaders had been permitted to visit the region. She cast doubt on the perceived threat and proposed that an attempt to withhold information could be the true problem. "Leaders of the National Conference are welcome to attend, but BJP President Ravinder Raina is not allowed to do so because of a possible threat. These people pose the greatest threat here, in my opinion. They desire that we not get to know those families. Then, they're attempting to conceal something," Mufti remarked. The Indian Army announced that it is looking into the deaths of three civilians in the Poonch-Rajouri area, where on December 21 militants attacked army personnel, leaving four soldiers dead. The Indian Army intends to increase the number of troops stationed in the Poonch-Rajouri sector in order to curb the activities of Pakistani terrorists there, given the recent increase in attacks on its troops. The families of three civilians slain in the Poonch sector were also met by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh earlier. Noor Mohammad, the victim's brother, claimed that Rajnath Singh had promised them justice after they had a meeting with the minister of defence. "When we informed him about the incident, he promised that justice would be served. He promised that justice would be served, even though whatever had happened to us was terrible. We're hoping it gets done," stated Muhammad. The victim's uncle, Mohammed Sadiq, concurred that justice ought to be served promptly. "Justice must to be served, and it must be served promptly. We are pleased to welcome the Minister of Defence, who assured us of justice during his visit," he continued.

According to Dr. Jitendra Singh, Katra is now one of the first few cities in the nation to have two Vande Bharat Express trains. The Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra-New Delhi Vande Bharat Express departed from Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, this morning, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi essentially waving the flag. Arriving at the event from Katra railway station was Dr Jitendra Singh.According to Dr Jitendra Singh, rail projects in Jammu and Kashmir are currently underway at a cost of over Rs 41,000 crore, setting a record in and of itself because no other State or Union Territory in the nation has achieved the same feat. Similarly, the Union Budget has set aside over Rs 6,000 crore for the development of the rail industry in Jammu and Kashmir. Speaking at the event, Dr. Jitendra Singh stated that since taking office, the Prime Minister has given this region's development extra attention and focus. He claimed that shortly after taking office as prime minister, Modi officially opened the 2013-completed Katra Railway Station. However, the Prime Minister was required to officially open it, indicating that Modi holds a particular place in his heart for the holy city. According to Dr. Jitendra Singh, the Prime Minister had promised that under his administration, connectivity would be provided to the unconnected regions of the nation in order to promote national development. He said that the prime minister accelerated the pace of development projects.The Vande Bharat Express's launch today, according to Dr. Jitendra Singh, is the Prime Minister's New Year's gift to the people of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly Katra. He claimed that Prime Minister Modi alone had addressed the shortcomings of the previous 50 years. The Minister emphasised that this is evidence of his dedication to the advancement of Jammu and Kashmir. According to him, the way the rail network in J&K has been established will serve as evidence of the Union Territory's evolving character.A record two crore tourists visiting the Valley and over a crore pilgrims paying their respects at the Mata Vaishno Devi shrine, according to Dr. Jitendra Singh, is an example of that connectivity, the minister emphasised. According to Dr. Singh, the government has reached the very end of the queue and is providing people with utilities, power and healthcare. According to the Minister, J&K will play a crucial role in an advanced India by 2047.
