There have been seven consecutive terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. These incidents have happened in the last 20 days. Why have the terrorists become active again after the recently concluded assembly elections?
In this regard, former DIG of Jammu and Kashmir SP Baid said in an interview with news agency ANI, ISI started infiltrating from Rajouri Poonch. They infiltrated some people. Among them are people from the Pakistani army. There are SSG commandos, who are very skilled in fighting in the jungle.
Agreeing with the former DIG, DW’s AB Rauf Ghani said, those who have died in the hands of the army and security forces are all foreigners. So it seems that infiltration has increased. However, we do not have any information about an increase in infiltration. However, the terrorists who have become active now are not local people. Rather, they are believed to have come from Pakistan. That is why the talk of an increase in infiltration is being raised.
Senior journalist Sharad Gupta told DW that no matter how bad the domestic situation in Pakistan is, there has been no change in their Kashmir policy. On the contrary, they have increased their terrorist activities by infiltrating Kashmir more and more.
According to him, Pakistan has been trying this for a long time. In the meantime, they tried to get this done through local people. Now again, they are doing this by infiltrating terrorists. Perhaps Pakistan also wants to divert the attention of the people of the country from their domestic issues. And they have been trying to create unrest in Kashmir for a long time and put India in trouble.
DW Urdu journalist Salahuddin Jain said that the terrorists want to show that the Kashmir problem has not been resolved yet. The Lok Sabha and Assembly elections have been held, but the problem remains.
Incidents that happened in 20 days
Last Monday, three terrorists opened fire on an army ambulance near the Line of Control in Akhnoor, Jammu and Kashmir. The terrorists opened fire in the Baltal area and entered a nearby forest. Then the army operation began there. One terrorist was killed on Monday. Then two terrorists were killed on Tuesday morning.
Last week, terrorists opened fire on an army vehicle in Gulmarg. Two army jawans and two porters were injured. They later died in the hospital. A few hours before this attack, terrorists shot a laborer from another state in Tral, Pulwama. The laborer was seriously injured.
A few days before that, terrorists entered the site of a road construction company near a tunnel under construction in Sonmarg and shot dead six laborers from another state and a Kashmiri doctor.
On October 18, terrorists shot dead a laborer from Bihar in Shopian. He was hit by 12 bullets. His body was found in a field.
On October 9, terrorists abducted two army personnel. One managed to escape. The bullet-riddled body of the other was later recovered.
After the recently concluded assembly elections, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister National Conference leader Omar Abdullah took oath as the Chief Minister, and several terrorist attacks took place.
In this regard, Omar Abdullah said that he was concerned about the recent increase in terrorist attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. He condemned the attack in the strongest terms.
After the terrorist attack in Gulmarg, the Congress said that this situation has happened because of the failed policies of the NDA. The Congress alleged that the NDA government at the Center has failed to provide security in Jammu and Kashmir. They should immediately take responsibility for this and provide security to the army, security forces and the common people.
