Speaking during a briefing on Monday, Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi explained critical information on the part played by Pakistan in terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. The Army Chief availed the figure that 60% of the neutralized terrorists are Pakistani nationals. This statistical revelation was strongly buttressed by his assertion that 80% of presently active terrorists within the area also hale from Pakistan.
Former chief General Dwivedi pointed to perhaps one of the most radical changes in the terrain of the region; terrorism for instance tourism. This change has huge implication to the dynamics of the valley, implying effective counter terrorism operation against Pakistani militants. Terrorism is still a cross-border phenomenon and Pakistan is harboring terrorists who continue to cause unrest in Jammu and Kashmir despite the state normalizing and experiencing growth through tourism.
These disclosings are important in understanding the news today’s security threats and more so the presence of foreign militants in the region which has accused Pakistan of destabilizing the region.
