Terrorists may disrupt peace in wake of I-Day: Army

The army on Thursday warned of the possibility of terrorists attempting to disrupt peace in Jammu and Kashmir especially in view of the upcoming Independence Day.

He said, "The downward slide in terrorism should not lull us into complacency as the intentions of terrorists and their infrastructure across the LoC is still intact."

Nehra was addressing a Core Group Meeting at Headquarters of White Knight Corps, at Nagrota on Thursday evening.

Flanked by the director general of police, J&K, Kuldeep Khuda, he said that downward slide in terrorism was attributed to the dedication and effectiveness by all the security agencies in the state.
