A fresh security alert grips Jammu and Kashmir’s border areas as officials unveil photos of five suspected Pakistani terrorists in Kathua and Samba. The appeal to the public is clear: vigilance is key to foiling their plans.
Triggered by intelligence from Punjab about cross-border intrusions, these ‘Public Information’ posters urge immediate reporting to Army, CRPF, BSF, or police helplines, with strict confidentiality for helpers.
Forces are now in overdrive, launching comprehensive anti-terror drives in Kathua, Kishtwar, Udhampur, Doda, and Samba. Highways buzz with checkpoints, patrols dominate landscapes, and searches intensify to root out infiltrators and terror infrastructure.
This follows closely on Doda’s poster campaign targeting Saifullah Baloch, underscoring sustained operations against foreign militants in strategic belts like Chenab Valley.
Kathua imposed a 5-km no-go zone for non-essential travel along the International Border since Saturday, justified by DM Rajesh Sharma under BNSS Section 163 to avert cross-border aggression and safeguard civilians.
In Samba, DGP Nalin Prabhat’s visit last Friday reviewed defenses, stressing unwavering readiness among border guardians.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s blueprint from his J&K tour demands a relentless ‘mission mode’ to wipe out terrorism and seal borders against any incursions.
