6/13/2018 11:21:14 PM
Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 13: Brutal killing of four BSF troopers including an Assistant Commandant without any retaliation from India side on Wednesday morning has raised many questions because it is first time that Pakistani Rangers have managed to kill our soldiers without any reaction from this side.
Wednesday's dreaded attack on the BSF picket in Chamlayal area was ceasefire violation after highprofie visit of Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh. It is widely alleged that Union Home Minister during his visit to J&K has asked BSF and other forces deployed to frustrate evil designs of Pakistan to observe restrain during the holy month of Ramzan because BJP leadership wanted to appease Kashmir centric parties parties including Hurriyat Conference.
Sources said that it was result of Delhi's direction to observe maximum restrain in the month of Ramzan that security forces are not retilating effectively.
Credible sources said that Central Government has tied hands of security forces, especially BSF because BJP government at the Centre wanted to create an impression that for peace Union Governmment is ready to make any sacrifice.
As per reports at least 11 BSF troops have been killed in cross-border firing incidents along the IB in Jammu and Kashmir till date in 2018, the highest casualty figure for the border force in a year in the last five years, a latest data revealed.
As per the data accessed, over 320 unprovoked firing incidents have taken place this year till date, leading to the killing of 11 BSF personnel and injuring 37 others.
In comparison to this, a total of 111 unprovoked cross-border firing instances took place last year along this front (Jammu IB) while the figures were 204 incidents (in 2016), 350 (in 2015) and 127 during 2014.
Two BSF personnel were killed and seven injured due to sniping and mortar shelling last year while three BSF personnel were killed and 10 injured in such incidents in 2016.
Similarly, a BSF jawan was killed and five were injured in 2015 and two of its men were killed while 14 were injured in 2014.
