Anyone who picks up a gun in Kashmir will be eliminated, the army said.
The Indian Army on Tuesday said within 100 hours of the February 14 Pulwama attack on a CRPF convoy that left 49 troopers dead, it eliminated the Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) leadership that planned and executed the deadly carnage.
This was stated by Lt Gen K.S. Dhillon of the 15 Corps Commander, at a joint press briefing in Jammu and Kashmir.
He also made it clear that the Pulwama attack was carried out by the JeM.
"Within 100 hours of the Pulwama terror attack, we hit the JeM in the Kashmir Valley which was being handled by the JeM," Dhillon said.
Giving a stern warning to sympathisers of the terror movement in the state, he said: "Anyone who picks up a gun in Kashmir will be eliminated, unless the person surrenders."
KJS Dhillon, Corps Commander of Chinar Corps, Indian Army: Our focus is clear on counter-terrorism operations. We are very clear that anyone who enters Kashmir Valley will not go back alive.
In the biggest crackdown after the February 14 attack by a suicide bomber that left 40 CRPF troopers dead in Pulwama district, the security forces ringed a militant hideout in Pinglena village, just 10 km from the Thursday's terror attack site, triggering a gun battle Sunday overnight that continued intermittently till Monday evening.
They killed three militants of JeM, two of them identified as Kamran and Abdul Rashid alias Ghazi Umar. Besides, a Major, three soldiers and a civilian were also killed in the initial burst of gunfire by the militants.
