The number of terrorist-related incidents has decreased by 75%, and all of the leading terrorist organisations' commanders have been banished (to hell). There is no longer any stone-pelting, and there is a record low in local terrorist recruitment, he claimed. He claimed that the days of the bordering country's citizens issuing protest signs and hartal calendars were long gone. Rather, we are now releasing recruitment and education calendars.
