India sez terror infrastructure in Jammu and Kashmir intact
2007-10-27
India's key paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) Friday stressed that the terror infrastructure in Jammu and Kashmir was intact though there has been a slight decline in the violent incidents.

"There has been a slight decrease in the number of terror-related incidents and reduction in civilian causality in Kashmir," CRPF Director General S I S Ahmed told reporters on the eve of 68th raising day of the force at Delhi today.

"This does not mean that infrastructure of terrorists is not there. The grouping, planning and execution is there. I do not see a reduction in CRPF personnel in Jammu and Kashmir," he said.

Out of the 201 CRPF battalions, 72 were deployed in Jammu and Kashmir, he said.

Till September 30 this year, the CRPF had killed 71 guerrillas and nabbed 206 others in terror related cases in Jammu and Kashmir. 15 CRPF men were killed and 106 others injured in 68 encounters in Kashmir.
