Fighting militancy in J&K not one-sided ‘war’: DGP

Reasi: Director General of Police (DGP) Dilbagh Singh Friday said that police are not fighting a “one-sided” war against militancy in the Union Territory and that when militants are being killed they will also do some “misadventure” to show their presence.

He, was quick to add that “we have reached a stage where more efforts are needed to end militancy in J&K.”

Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a pass-out-cum attestation parade at Reasi district of Jammu, DGP Singh, while replying to a query, said that presence of over 200 militants in J&K means that while police is killing militants on one hand, on the other, they are also indulging in doing some misadventure.

“It’s not that police is fighting one-sided war against militancy in J&K. While we keep on killing militants, we should not expect that they won’t do anything,” he said.

Earlier, addressing the new cadets, the DGP said: “We have reached a stage where some more efforts are needed to end the militancy in J&K completely and restore durable peace for people of J&K. The passing out parade was held for 604 recruit constables who completed their basic training. (KNO)
