Early Times Report

Jammu, Aug 8: Small towns located between Jammu and RS Pura, were being guarded by the paramilitary forces besides the police as a confidence building measure. Small towns located between Jammu and RS Pura, were being guarded by the paramilitary forces besides the police as a confidence building measure.
The abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution while at one hand has rekindled the hopes of residents of border villages that it will boost development, it has also left them worried as Pakistan may resort to cross-border shelling to vent its frustration after it downgraded the diplomatic ties with India on Wednesday.
Residents of Suchetgarh and Gobindpura villages in Jammu told India Today that they have witnessed movement of additional forces deployed along the Indo-Pak border by Pakistan on Tuesday.
"We cannot trust Pakistan, it usually resorts to firing. We are happy that abrogation of Article 370 has been done," Gurdev Singh, a resident of Gobindpura, said.
Another local resident Sudesh kumar, is hopeful that the reorganisation of Jammu and Kashmir will bring down the number of ceasefire violations.
Jogendra of Govindpura is also happy that Article 370 has been abrogated.
The local residents of RS Pura sector said that they witnessed movement of extra Pakistani army vehicles and rangers along the Indo-Pak border and that has left them worried.
Locals, however, said they were safe as the Border Security Force (BSF) has increased patrolling along the border.
Small towns located between Jammu and RS Pura, were being guarded by the paramilitary forces besides the police as a confidence building measure. The link roads and village paths have also been barricaded with concertina wire to restrict the movement of vehicles as a precautionary measure.
Sources said suicide bombers in Muzaffarabad, besides BAT commandoes, are planning attacks and are waiting for an opportunity to cross the border.
hough there was no curfew in the Valley but the Section 144 of CrPC was being strictly followed and more than five people are not allowed to assemble anywhere.
Only the residents with urgent work were being allowed to move between places. The paramilitary troops deployed at every nook and corner were keeping an eye on the unscrupulous elements and were asking people to show their identity cards.
Internet services were still down and mobile services were not functioning properly which has left the people working in Jammu and other towns worried as there was no news about their relatives who live in distant parts of Kashmir.
"It has been almost four days when I last spoke to my family. The mobile phones are not working and there is no news from my village located in Kishtwar area" Jitender, who works at a Jammu restaurant, said.
