Srinagar: National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Sunday claimed that militancy is rising in Jammu and Kashmir and recalled the promises made by the Modi government while abrogating Article 370.
While addressing a gathering in Doda, Omar Abdullah trained guns at the Central government saying after the repeal of Article 370, it was said that Ambani, Tata and Birla would bring investment in J&K and that a lot of employment opportunities will be created.
"But nothing happened. The locals are not getting employment in even ongoing projects," he said.
Talking about the increasing terrorist encounters in the Valley, the former J&K Chief Minister said militancy is growing in those areas again from where it was wiped out during the National Conference's regime.
"These militants have not come from outside, but they are the youths of Kashmir who are ready to take up arms due to anger and other reasons," he added.
The situation has turned worse post the August 2019 developments and anyone speaking the truth is booked under stringent laws, he said and referred to a 50-year-old political activist from Ganderbal, who was booked under the Public Safety Act for allegedly saying that he had no expectations from officers who are from outside Jammu and Kashmir.
Earlier in the day, sources said that nearly all the terrorists involved in the killings of civilians in Jammu and Kashmir last month have been neutralised and the armed forces are now focussing on intelligence-based "surgical operations".
They said a "refined" approach to deal with terrorism has been put in place under a more nuanced framework of better coordination among the Jammu and Kashmir police, the intelligence agencies and the Army with an aim to minimise collateral damage.
After a spell of relative calm, Jammu and Kashmir witnessed a spate of killings of innocent civilians last month, triggering apprehensions of an intense cycle of violence and turmoil in the region.
