The Intelligence agencies have sounded high alert along the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir following latest inputs of top militants camping close to the border for infiltration into this side even as the Border Security Force (BSF) on June 2, lodged strong protest with the Rangers over targeted firing on the BSF personnel in Hiranagar sector of Kathua District on June 1, in which a personnel was injured, reports Daily Excelsior. The fresh ceasefire violations by Pakistan Army and Rangers along the LoC and IB on June 1 and firing of mortars and RPG shells has triggered panic among the villagers living in the forward areas. Official sources said that the Intelligence agencies have sounded statewide alert on the LoC and IB and called for high state of alert by all security agencies following specific inputs that some groups of highly trained militants including fidayeen (suicide) squad of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) were trying to sneak into J&K to carry out terror strikes. “There were specific inputs that the militants were trying to infiltrate into this side to carry out terror attacks and target security installations. The militants were trying to target both LoC and IB as they were finding it difficult to infiltrate into this side. A number of militants have reached close to LoC and IB to make infiltration attempts,’’ sources said, adding the militants could try series of infiltration bids.

Three Policemen were injured on June 3 when a mob attacked them with sticks and kirpans, ceremonial swords carried by baptized Sikhs, for removing posters praising Khalistan champion Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale in Satwari area of Jammu District, reports Times of India. Police said that the posters were removed as they sensed they might generate a controversy. The removal of the posters incensed the members of the Sikh community. They gathered at Rani Bagh and staged a protest demanding Satwari Station House Officer (SHO)'s unconditional apology for hurting Sikh sentiments by removing the posters. The protesters raised slogans like 'Khalistan zindabad' and in favour of Bhindranwale. A Police party rushed to the area was stoned, forcing cops to cane charge the protestors, who retaliated with sticks and kirpans. SHO Arun Kumar, Sub-Inspector (SI) Bharat Singh and Bharat Singh's Personal Security Officer (PSO) Pervaiz were injured in the clash. In the past, Khalistani militants have enjoyed pockets of support in Jammu's Satwari area, where elements from outfits like Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF) have been sheltered. Punjab Police foiled a conspiracy of KZF and Khalistan Liberation Force (KLF) to carry out terrorist acts by arresting two militants from Jammu on August 4, 2014. Most wanted KZF terrorist, Balbir Singh, involved in a 1997 blast in Pathankot that had killed 10 people, was arrested from Jammu on September 21, 2010. Three associates of wanted militant, Ranjit Singh, and head of KZF were arrested from Jammu on March 25, 2000.

The ‘splinter’ group of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) headed by Qayoom Najjar, is turning out to be a new hardline militant group in Kashmir with militants from other outfits like Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) rallying around it, reports Daily Excelsior on June 29. Police blames Najjar’s group for attacks on telecom companies in which two people were killed and four others were injured, leading to breakdown of telecommunications for some days in Kashmir valley last month. Police also holds them responsible for killings of four activists of All Party Hurriyat Conference-Geelani (APHC-G) and former militants in Sopore area early this month. Earlier, Police and other security agencies claimed that the group is restricted to Sopore area only and is a splinter group of HM that has serious differences with its leadership and some All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) leaders. Now, sources revealed that the group has already spread its tentacles in Srinagar and South Kashmir and is emerging as a new militant group in Kashmir valley that will pose a major security challenge to the Government in future. Security agencies have apprehensions that a large numbers of self-radicalised youth can join them in future, making this group one of the powerful militant groups in Kashmir valley. The group has also several JeM militants from Pakistan with them and they are expecting more JeM militants to join them later this year. Sources said that large numbers of JeM militants are waiting for infiltration at the launch pads along the Line of Control (LoC). Sources said that Najjar with the support of some hardliners in HM were for last two years asking for stepping up of the militant activities in Kashmir but the top leadership was against it.
