SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police Dilbagh Singh on Tuesday said that 42 terrorists have been killed in the past three months during various anti-terror operations and the presence of foreign terrorists is very low in the Union Territory.
Talking to reporters on the sidelines of the wreath-laying ceremony of CRPF jawan who was killed in yesterday’s terror attack in Maisuma, Singh said that killing a person who is there to protect people is ''barbaric act'' and civil societies are also condemning these vile acts.
The J&K DGP said that in the month of Ramadan when prayers for peace and tranquillity are offered worldwide, no one can accept the killing of civilians in such an environment. That is why it has been condemned everywhere in civil circles, he added.
Replying to a question on increase in the number of OGWs, the J&K police chief said that there has always been a presence of OGWs and that the operations by security forces have also been stepped up.
Singh also said that the neighbouring country has left no stone unturned in their nefarious designs to disrupt peace and tourism in J&K. They don't want people here to earn their livelihood with peace, he claimed.
