The Chinar Corps said the only ideology the terrorists espouse is "The Reign of Terror in the Valley".
The attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Baramulla on Thursday, in which two Indian Army soldiers were killed in action and two civilian porters lost their lives, is proof that Pakistani terrorists are deliberately targeting Kashmiri locals to evoke fear in the Valley, the Army has said.
In a statement on Friday, the Srinagar-based Chinar Corps of the Indian Army said the brave soldiers, whose vehicle was attacked in Baramulla's Butapathri area, demonstrated their commitment to countering the "inimical agenda of Pakistan-abetted terrorism in Kashmir".
The Army vehicle was targeted on Thursday and two soldiers, Rifleman Kaisar Ahmad Shah and Rifleman Jeevan Singh from Kashmir's Anantnag and Haryana's Sirsa, were killed in action. The statement said the response by the two soldiers and other troops forced the terrorists to retreat, leaving a weapon behind.
