Jammu and Kashmir's security situation better than before: DGP Dilbag Singh
The HinduAsserting that Jammu and Kashmir's security situation is much better than before, DGP Dilbag Singh on Tuesday said militants are being "neutralised" within the shortest possible time of committing an act of terror. Terror groups and their handlers in Pakistan are hurt by the peaceful atmosphere in Jammu and Kashmir which is evident from the increased attempts to smuggle weapons from across the border and replacing local stooges with Pakistani terrorists, he said. Asked about the recent spurt in terror attacks, including the latest killing of a Railway Protection Force personnel in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district and owning of the attack by two terror groups, he said, they are all basically Lashar-e-Taiba affiliates who are indulging in such activities on the directions from their handlers across the border. Both the terrorists were killed within seven days after they attacked the CRPF personnel in the city.” Mr. Singh said the terrorists are assigning the job of attacking a soft target to new recruits.
