J&K election security tightened amid threats of terror attacks

As the much-anticipated Assembly Elections in the Union Territory (UT) of Jammu and Kashmir approach, the Indian Army is taking extensive measures to prevent any incidents that could disrupt the democratic process, occurring almost a decade after the formation of the five-yearold UT.

Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the Jammu region, has been experiencing a renewed wave of terrorism, raising concerns within the security apparatus. To counter infiltration attempts from across the Line of Control (LOC), the Indian Army has reinforced its counter-infiltration grid by redeploying troops along the LoC and in higher areas.

According to sources who spoke to The Sunday Guardian on the condition of anonymity, there are reports indicating that terrorists might target Kashmiri Pandits, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers, or migrants, mostly from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, to create an atmosphere of chaos and fear, aiming to disrupt the elections.
