“With every operation we are moving on the path of peace. I can feel it on ground that there is a palpable difference in the situation,” he said.
TheGoC said that the successful operations are taking place with the activesupport of people. “In next few months, we will try to ensure that the normalcy is restored in full across the Valley so that people resume all kinds of activities in a peaceful manner,” the army officer said.
He said that this year so far 102 militants have been killed in various operations.
“There have been only one or two civilian casualties and that’s because of theextra-ordinary restraint exercised by the forces on ground,” he said.
