Security situation improved significantly in J&K in 2023; foreign terrorists our target for 2024, says DGP

Civilian killings and attacks on forces came down significantly in Jammu and Kashmir in 2023, J&K Director General of Police (DGP) R.R. Swain said on Saturday in Jammu. In 2024, the police will go after foreign terrorists, whose number is higher than locals, he said.

“There is a significant improvement in the overall security situation in J&K. I admit there is a security situation in Rajouri-Poonch, terrorists don’t hide in houses, they take shelter in caves, forests, and have very, very limited people supporting them. We will deal with it effectively. A strategy has been devised and can’t be discussed in public,” DGP Swain said.
