J&K govt to review security after spurt in attacks

In the wake of recent spurt in militancy-related violence, including in Pampore, the state government on Monday said it was reviewing the entire security scenario in J&K to respond to such attacks in the future.

“The state government is reviewing the entire security scenario to respond to the attacks like the two-three which happened recently, which is their (militants') new strategy,” government’s spokesman and Education Minister Naeem Akhtar told the Legislative Council. 

The minister said: “It first happened in Anantnag and now here, so the state government is reviewing the entire security structure.”
