Terrorists hiding in J&K told to block roads if war erupts, damage policemen’s homes: Report
In a chilling warning, terrorist outfits Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba have asked their members hiding in Jammu and Kashmir to be on high alert and to take drastic measures in the event of a war breaking out between India and Pakistan. According to a report by CNN-News18, citing intelligence sources, the terrorists have been instructed to block highways and damage police personnel’s homes.
This alarming development comes at a time when tensions between India and Pakistan are running high, with both sides engaged in a war of words and diplomatic tensions escalating. The report suggests that the terrorist outfits are preparing for a potential conflict and are instructing their members to take actions that could exacerbate the situation.
According to CNN-News18, the intelligence sources revealed that the terrorists have been told to block highways and roads in Jammu and Kashmir, which could lead to significant disruptions in the region. The report also suggests that the terrorists have been instructed to damage the homes of police personnel, a move that could be seen as a provocative act.
This instruction is eerily reminiscent of the Pahalgam terror attack, where terrorists destroyed the homes of police personnel in response to the killing of their comrades. The attack was widely condemned and led to a strong response from the Indian government.
The move by the terrorist outfits is seen as a desperate attempt to gain an upper hand in the event of a war. By blocking roads and damaging police personnel’s homes, the terrorists hope to create chaos and disrupt the functioning of the administration, making it difficult for the Indian government to respond effectively.
The report also suggests that the terrorists have been instructed to remain in hiding and not to engage in direct combat with the Indian security forces. Instead, they have been told to wait for the Pakistani army to launch a full-scale attack, at which point they would join in and provide support to their Pakistani counterparts.
The development is likely to raise concerns about the safety and security of civilians in Jammu and Kashmir, particularly in areas where the terrorists are known to be active. The Indian government has been on high alert since the beginning of the year, with security forces deployed in large numbers to prevent any potential attacks.
The report is also likely to raise questions about the role of Pakistan in the escalation of tensions in the region. The Pakistani government has been accused of providing support to terrorist outfits operating in the region, including Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba.
The Indian government has repeatedly accused Pakistan of sponsoring terrorism in the region, and has demanded that it take concrete steps to dismantle terrorist infrastructure and prevent the use of its soil for terrorist activities.
In response to the report, the Indian government is likely to review its security measures and take steps to prevent any potential attacks. The government is also likely to increase its efforts to engage with Pakistan and persuade it to abandon its policy of supporting terrorism in the region.
The development is also likely to raise concerns about the impact of a potential war on civilians in the region. The last major conflict between India and Pakistan, the Kargil War in 1999, saw widespread destruction and loss of life, and the consequences of a potential war could be devastating.
In conclusion, the report by CNN-News18 highlights the threat posed by terrorist outfits operating in Jammu and Kashmir, and the need for the Indian government to take effective measures to prevent any potential attacks. The government must also engage with Pakistan and persuade it to abandon its policy of supporting terrorism in the region.
