Let the proponents of ‘Reduction of troops’ doctrine get enough courage to read the gist of the above two lines that ‘reduction of forces’ is not only a political issue as they perceive but it is related security of people of state and also has a significant impact upon the socio-economic cum security scenario of state.
Muftis who are not alien to the politio-security situations in the state for over one and a half decade in addition to the significant role played by the armed forces but are riding on the emotional and sensational sloganeering of Demilitarization.
