Jammu has become a “new battleground” for terrorism, with over 50 foreign terrorists believed to have infiltrated the region with the support of the Pakistan Army, according to top intelligence sources.
Over the past month, terrorists have targeted four locations in Kathua, Doda, Reasi and Udhampur districts, killing 15 people and leaving 46 injured. Sources said the terrorists, reportedly young and highly radicalised, have received extensive training from the other side of the border, allowing them to operate independently without relying on local support networks.
The Pakistan Army is believed to be capitalising on Jammu’s low-security deployment and slow reaction times to advance its agenda. The situation is compounded by Jammu’s challenging terrain compared to Kashmir’s flatter landscape, which has proven more conducive to counter-terrorism efforts.
In the wake of the rising terror threat, the government is mobilising additional forces, though these initial deployments are expected to be limited. The terrorists are believed to be entering Jammu through the Hira Nagar region, possibly using tunnels to facilitate their movements.
They are also engaging in psychological warfare by posting videos of their attacks and ambushes on social media to radicalise youth and intimidate the public. Sources said that a major challenge for the Indian Army will be the diversion of resources from the China border, which could weaken defences along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and complicate the response to the escalating threat in Jammu.
