J&K Attacks: Terrorists Testing Modi 3.0 - News18

Four terror attacks in four days south of the Pir Panjal range in the Jammu division of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir signal not just a shift in the centre of gravity and area of operation of terrorists, but also the strategic intent of their handlers and controllers sitting in Pakistan. This is also clear from the fact that in Kashmir, terrorists from proxy groups like ‘The Resistance Front’ or ‘People’s Anti-Fascist Front’ were not well-trained, disciplined, or battle-hardened killers. Worse, at a time when security commitments are increasing on the western front with Afghanistan, an active eastern front with India imposes enormous pressure on the Pakistan Army, confronting them with a two-front situation. Perhaps this was discussed when Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and his boss Gen Asim Munir visited Beijing around the time India’s election results were being declared.
