NEW DELHI: The Centre has decided to pull out over 7,000 Central para-military troops from Jammu and Kashmir on account of the improvement in law and order situation there and also because the troops were on short-term deployment, sources told TOI on Tuesday.
Of the nearly 7,200 troops de-inducted from Jammu and Kashmir , 2,400 are from the CRPF and 1,200 each from BSF SSB, CISF and ITBP. They were all deployed in the state in view of the government’s decision to abrogate
Article 370
in the erstwhile state on August 5 this year.
Earlier too, some troops were withdrawn from Jammu and Kashmir for the
Jharkhand assembly polls
.
While sources indicated that the withdrawal of the Central troops was due as they were on short-term deployment, the decision assumes significance as it comes on a day when a high-level review on situation in UT of Jammu and Kashmir was held in the home ministry.
The review was attended by national security advisor Ajit Doval, Jammu and Kashmir LG GC Murmu, home secretary Ajay Kumar Bhalla, senior security adviser in MHA K Vijay Kumar, Army chief, CRPF DG and IB chief, among others. Home minister Amit Shah chaired the meeting, which was spread over several hours, for some time, as did minister of state for home G Kishan Reddy.
Kumar is scheduled to travel to the UT of Jammu and Kashmir soon to take stock of the situation.
