Srinagar (NVI): Jammu and Kashmir DGP Dilbag Singh today held “Pakistan and its agencies” responsible for spreading radicalisation among youth in the Valley.
Addressing a press conference here in Srinagar, the DGP said that if de-radicalisation camps are setup in country it will help youth who have gone astray.
He also welcomed Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Bipin Rawat recent statement in which he had claimed that there were de-radicalisation camps operating in the country.
“If any such facility comes up in Kashmir it will be a good sign. It will definitely help people, especially those who have gone astray,” the DGP said.
“Whenever we catch some people at our level they don’t seem to be talking much sense at times and therefore, if some sensible kind of arrangement is made where good people from the civil society and experts are gathered together, who deal with this subject and relevant aspects of religion and other things, it willl be a good development. These kind of things should be welcomed, the J&K top cop said.
On terror outfits operating in the Valley, DGP Singh said that Hizbul Mujahideen is on the verge of being completely wiped out in south Kashmir.
While referring to an encounter in south Kashmir today, the DGP said three militants including Hizbul Mujahideen commander Wasim Ahmed Wani, were neutralised in Shopian district. The second militant was Adil Sheikh and the third was identified as Jahangir.
