Future fight in Jammu and Kashmir will be against foreign terrorists: Director General of Police R R Swain

| @indiablooms | Dec 31, 2023, at 08:56 pm

Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police R R Swain has said the fight in the region will be more against foreign terrorists than local in the days to come.

He said the region is witnessing a rise in the number of foreign terrorists in recent times.

Of the 76 terrorists killed in 48 anti-terror operations in the Union Territory in the current year, 56 are foreigners, the DGP  was quoted as saying by The Indian Express on Saturday.

“There are only 31 identified local terrorists in the UT – including four in Jammu province’s Kishtwar district and remaining 27 in Kashmir Valley,” he said, adding that this is the all-time low figure as compared to past several years.

A total of 373 terrorist associates were arrested during the year 2023 against 291 in 2022, he said.

The official further said terror groups like Jammu Kashmir Democratic Freedom Party led by Shabir Shah and the Jammu and Kashmir Muslim League have been banned this year under the provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
