Checking Narco-Terrorism
3/16/2023 12:08:25 AM
Narco-terrorism is emerging as a big challenge for the security agencies in Jammu and Kashmir as Pakistan is using drones to drop the consignments.
The drugs being dropped through drones are collected by the criminals and the peddlers roped in by the drug mafia and the sale proceeds are being used to fund terror in J&K.
Recently, a senior officer of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) admitted that dropping narcotics through drones has emerged as the biggest challenge to checking narco-terrorism.
He asserted that the NCB is seeking assistance from some US-based agencies to frustrate evil designs of drug mafia.
According to the officials the NCB zonal unit Jammu in the recent past disposed-off 330 Kilograms of narcotics seized by the bureau. The seizure included Heroin – 153 Kgs and Charas – 177 kgs, valued in crores in the national and international markets.
During the past few years the investigating agencies have choked the funding channels of the terrorists and have ensured that no illegal money flows into J&K through Hawala.
Crackdown on the terror funding channels has led to the funds meant for terrorists drying up and it has helped in restoring the normalcy in the Union Territory.
Terrorist handlers sitting across the Line of Control (LoC) are now using other methods to keep the proxy war alive. They are using narco-terrorism as a weapon to turn J&K into a haven for drug peddlers and smugglers.
But the investigating agencies and NCB are not allowing them to succeed in their designs. They are putting in all the efforts to stop the flow of drugs into J&K and then it being supplied to other parts of the country.
Destroying seized drugs by setting them ablaze is a message to the adversaries that they won’t be allowed to succeed in their nefarious designs and they would be taught a lesson.
After the abrogation of Article 370, the situation in J&K has improved and Pakistan is unable to digest it. The neighbouring country is finding it hard to believe that it has lost the proxy war which it sustained for three decades.
It’s making desperate attempts to keep the terrorism alive in J&K but the security forces are not allowing the terror bosses to implement or execute their plans.
