| Security forces on high alert to check fresh infiltration | | BIDS FROM ACROSS LINE OF CONTROL,INTERNATIONAL BORDER | |
Jammu, May 20,
If official reports are any
guide groups of militants have been camping across
R.S.Pura,Samba,Poonch,Rajouri,Kupwara and Uri sectors
for infiltrating into Jammu and Kashmir.
Official sources said that reports from across the
border revealed that most of the boys,waiting for
sneaking into Jammu and Kashmir,were keen to join the
mainstream after bidding farewell to the gun. Some
among them had simply crossed over to Pakistan and
occupied Kashmir and had realised their folly. They
were keen to return and start a peaceful living.
Official sources said that in the recent past an
attempt was made to snap the barbed wire fence on the
International Border in the Jammu sector but the alert
guards had foiled their attempt.
According to the reports the BSF,guarding the 187
km long international Border,have been asked to
intensify round the clock patrolling so that not a
single boy was able to infiltrate into the Jammu
sector.Similar instructions had been issued to the
troops,especially in north Kashmir where the rate of
ingress from the Kupwara sector had shown an upward
trend in recent weeks.
It is in the context of the movement of militants
across the border various political parties have been
favouring a safe passage for those Kashmiri boys who
had gone to Pakistan or occupied Kashmir and for those
foreign mercenaries who were operating in Jammu and
Kashmir and were eager to return to their home land.
Former Pakistan occupied Kashmir President and Prime
Minister,Sardfar Abdul Qayoom Khan,during his recent
visit to Delhi,too had suggested safe passage for the
boys which could improve the security situation in
Jammu and Kashmir.
However,the police authorities are apprehensive of
the safe passage suggestion.A senior police pofficer
said that "those who wish to return should first be
handedover to the police so that their bona fides were
established during questioning in the Joint
integrroation Centre.He said once they were sent to
the interrogation centre police could have details of
their parents and area warranted for keepinthem undert
surveillance.
Others said that in the past even the surrendered
militants had,later become active,and had rejoined
their parent outfits.
