India: Migrant worker from UP killed by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir
Jammu and Kashmir
A migrant worker from northern Uttar Pradesh was shot dead by terrorists in Nowpora village of southern Kashmir’s Pulwama district on Monday (Oct 30), making it the third terror attack in the valley in the last 24 hours.
The deceased, identified as Mukesh Singh, was shot in the Rajpora area around 12.45 pm (local time) on Monday.
The series of attacks forced the police to heighten security across the Kashmir Valley, even as a joint combing operation with paramilitary force CRPF is ongoing in the Pulwama district to weed out the terrorists involved in the attack.
''The enemy wants to unleash violence in the valley. The incidents that have taken place today and yesterday reflects their frustration. As they are unable to make grounds, they are making sure that peace doesn’t return to the valley,” Dilbagh Singh, Director General, Jammu Kashmir Police, said.
“We are working hard to completely eradicate violence in the valley. We have already managed to find some major clues with regard to yesterday's (Oct 29) attack. If a poor labourer is killed, I don't think either God or police will forgive the perpetrators of this attack,'' Singh added.
Monday’s attack comes a day after a Jammu and Kashmir Police's inspector was shot and injured by terrorists.
