Terror incidents have increased in Jammu and Kashmir since the formation of the new government. Security agencies have been on heightened alert following a sudden rise in attacks in the state. According to intelligence reports, more than 119 terrorists are active in the state. Most of these terrorists are Pakistanis. According to sources, terrorists no longer receive support at the local level in the state and hence security agencies are finding it easier to track them and conduct precise operations against them.
It is understood that 79 of the currently active terrorists are in the Kashmir Valley, 18 of whom are locals and 61 are Pakistanis. There are 40 active terrorists in Jammu Province, 34 of whom are Pakistani citizens and only 6 are local terrorists. So far, security forces have killed 61 terrorists, 16 of whom were killed at the border and 45 in the interior. Terrorists attempted to infiltrate 25 times, but were thwarted by security forces.

There have been 25 terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kashmir this year. 61 terrorists were killed in these incidents, 21 of them Pakistani terrorists. Twenty-four soldiers have died in these incidents, compared with 27 soldiers last year. Most terrorist incidents occur in inland areas.
Terrorists try to infiltrate
Terrorists are planning to infiltrate into Jammu and Kashmir before the weather changes. There will be snowfall in the coming period and before that the terrorists want to infiltrate into the state. Many terrorist launch pads have also been activated for infiltration. In view of this, both the Army and the BSF are very vigilant.
Jammu BSF IG DK Bura while giving information on the preparedness of security forces said that we are ready to deal with terrorists on all fronts. No terrorist plot will be allowed to succeed. Our security forces are fully prepared to deal with them. Neighboring countries always try to infiltrate but we at BSF will not allow this to happen.
