Two soldiers killed fighting Pakistani infiltrators on the New Year day
[HindustanTimes] The Jammu and Kashmir
...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
 police yesterday said there were 250 bandidos snuffies active in the union territory, of which 100 were foreigners and the rest were locals.

The new year started on a sombre note with two Indian Army soldiers losing their lives in an exchange of fire with Pak murderous Moslems, who were looking to sneak into India through the Line of Control (Loc) in Jammu and Kashmir in the wee hours on Wednesday. The heavily armed murderous Moslems’ advance was foiled by the security forces in the cordon and search operation in the Kalal area of the Nowshera sector in Rajouri.

"In the intervening night of Tuesday, a contact was established with infiltrators in a forest Rakh Taryath in Nowshera Sector. The heavily armed murderous Moslems retaliated by fire. In the ensuing exchange of fire, two soldiers of the Indian Army were critically injured and later gave up the ghost and attained martyrdom, said Public Relations Officer, Defence, Lt Col Devender Anand.

Reinforcements have been summoned for the operation, which was still in progress at the time of the publishing of this report.

The dear departed have been identified as Naik Sawant Sandip Raghunath (29) from Munde village in Karhad tehsil of Satara, Maharashtra and Rifleman Arjun Thapa Magar (25), from Nepal’s Gorkha district.

Sandeep Raghunath is survived by his wife Smita Sawant and Thapa Magar left his wife Sarita Thapa Magar behind.

The defence spokesperson said both Naik Raghunath and Rifleman Magar were "brave, highly motivated and sincere soldiers" whose "supreme sacrifice" and "devotion to duty" had left the nation in debt.
May they find themselves in the best afterlife they believe in.
