On January 21, 2022 (Friday), a core group of top officials from the civil administration, security forces, and intelligence agencies in Jammu and Kashmir gathered to assess the security situation in the union territory.
This meeting was authorized by the general officer commanding the Chinar Corps, Lt Gen DP Pandey, and Dilbag Singh (Director General of Police Jammu and Kashmir), at the Badami Bagh Cantonment.
The core group analyzed the intelligence inputs and security criteria for 2021, as well as the new strategies of terrorist organizations and their handlers, including the employment of hybrid terrorists and soft target targeting. The year 2021 saw a decrease in terror recruitment as well as terror events.
Last year, 15 terrorists were slain who were unknown to security forces. The ineffectiveness of Pakistani terrorists has increased in recent weeks, and those present acknowledged the efforts of frontline soldiers and operatives from all agencies. The security situation along the border has improved as a result of the ceasefire, according to "officials."
Terrorist training activities and intelligent inputs that are launch pads in Pakistan highlight the need for increased vigilance along the line of control. On the line of control, late snow has kept the invade routes open for a long time. However, effective domination has ensured a reduction in infiltration including those from south of Pir Panjal.
The officials ALSO shared the challenge of biased information of the link through the internet and social media. They discussed that due to social media and the internet false information is being spread wide and needs to be refuted by joint effort.
Shrinagar includes propaganda to the legitimise killing of Kashmiri civilians by terrorists. Efforts at synergy in exposing fake news, booking of radicals trying to instigate unrest, and proactive sharing of information by state agencies are also being upgraded.
The abrogation of Article 370 in 2019, which went against our constitution's essential values, was applauded by the DGP and corps commander, who praised the officials present for improved security indicators. Certain benchmarks were established, and they were met successfully, resulting in the restoration of peace and prosperity in the region.
The DGP stated the reduction in local terrorist recruitment in one parameter. The corps commander celebrated 2022 as a transformative year where a common man used to zero civilian casualties in 2021 should see this year when things turned for good for the long term.
