Militancy in J&k Falls After LoC Peace, But Terror Infrastructure Across Border Intact
Terror incidents in Jammu and Kashmir have fallen sharply since February, with a pause in support from across the border. There were no reported incidents of infiltration, and militant activity in the hinterland has come down. An uneasy calm prevails in the Kashmir valley, with security forces maintaining a firm upper hand, government insiders said after Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited Jammu and Kashmir political leaders for a dialogue on Thursday in preparations for possible assembly elections in the coming months. Fewer than 61 incidents of terrorist violence were recorded till June, compared to 102 incidents during the corresponding period last year. The number of stone-pelting incidents in the valley has decreased by 75%, compared to 2020. In 2019, there were 1,999 incidents of stone-pelting, of which 1,193 took place after the Centre diluted Article 370 which granted special status to the erstwhile state.
