He also said 42 terrorists have been detained and 2253 have been pushed back due to well-organized and vigilant security forces from 2005 till October 31, 2019.
As per Reddy’s report Infiltration attempts were made as a substitute for the war agenda in order to refill the depleted terrorist strength in the valley to attain its intention to increase violent behavior in Jammu and Kashmir and then to internationalize the issue. The security forces are extra careful and are ready with their persistent power operations; surprise attack and patrolling are being conducted to completely stop the infiltration attempts. In addition, a healthy counter-infiltration network is in place to avoid infiltration attempts.
