Jammu and Kashmir Police chief Dilbag Singh on Tuesday said when the entire world is fighting the novel coronavirus outbreak, Pakistan-backed terrorists are making attempts to disrupt peace in the Union Territory.
A recent report suggested that many terrorists at their training centres and launching pads in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir are suffering from coronavirus infection, the director general of police (DGP) said.
He said that Pakistani agencies are helping the terrorists infiltrate into India through the International Border (IB) and the Line of Control (LoC).
Singh and R R Bharnagar, the advisor to Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor G C Murmu, on Tuesday held a meeting with senior police officers via video-conferencing to review the security situation as well as the COVID-19 crisis in Kashmir Valley.
Referring to the recent terror attacks, the DGP said, "When the entire world is making efforts to fight the coronavirus pandemic, Pakistan and its sponsored terrorists are making all-out attempts to disrupt the measures being taken to safeguard the lives of the people in J-K."
