Security forces have tackled terror threat in J&K, says Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who is on a two-day visit to Jammu and Kashmir, on Saturday said security forces had achieved decisive control over terrorism in the Union Territory, where the dream of Pandit Prem Nath Dogra and Syama Prasad Mukherjee had finally been realised.

“Both Mr. Dogra and Mr. Mukherjee opposed the idea of ‘ dou nishan, dou vidhan aur dou samvidhan’ [two symbols, two heads and two Constitutions]. In fact, Mr. Mukherjee laid down his life fighting for the cause. It was under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi that the dream of ‘ Eik Nishan, Eik Pradhan, Eik Vidhan’ has finally been achieved,” Mr. Shah said, while speaking at the 83rd Raising Day of the Central Reserve Police Forces (CRPF) in Jammu.

He said the security forces gained control over terrorism in J&K after the reading down of Article 370.
