In a bid to rule out every possibility of infiltration by terrorists, the Jammu and Kashmir police and the security forces have launched a joint operation, streaching from the international border to the mountains along the Line of Control.

The searches – part of an area domination exercise – followed intelligence inputs suggesting possible infiltration by terrorists taking advantage of fog amid a sudden surge in the activities of terrorists at the launch pads across the international border along Jammu, Samba, Kathua and Rajouri districts.

The areas where searches are going on include Pansar, Maniyari, Paharpur, Tappan, Mareed, Tarnah nallah, Bain nallah, Kishanpur Kandi, Rukh-e-Sarkar, Chak Chabbey and Dolka Samyal.

Searches are also going on in Samba district’s Babar Nallah, Paloora, Treyal, Mansar, and Chilla Danga, besides Pragwal and its adjoining areas of Akhnoor sector in Jammu district.

In border Rajouri district, security forces were carrying out massive search operations in various villages in Thanamandi and Manjakote sub divisions since the wee hours of Friday.

A senior BSF officer had last month said that nearly seven months after having suffered large scale damage to its defence infrastructure during Op Sindoor by India, Pakistan has again activated nearly 72 terror launch pads opposite Jammu province in areas not far away from the border.

These terror launch pads have been set up in depth areas falling in close proximity to the border, he had said, adding that 12 launch terrorist pads have become active in Sialkot and Zafarwal areas near the IB and other 60 across the LoC.

The portal aims to enable landlords report the concerned police station about any new tenant hiring their premises.
