Lashkar-e-Taiba activities in Jammu and Kashmir

Overview

Indian intelligence and police agencies have intensified operations in Jammu and Kashmir following reports of a radicalisation drive by Lashkar-e-Taiba. Intelligence reports suggest the group established dedicated units in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir to target youth by using exfiltrated individuals to contact relatives within the region.

In a related development, Rajouri Police dismantled an Over Ground Worker (OGW) network in the Pir Panjal region. Three individuals were arrested for allegedly providing logistical support, safe transit, and guidance to militants moving toward the Kashmir Valley. During the investigation, authorities recovered an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) that was reportedly being held by the suspects for potential use in future attacks.
