The Lieutenant Governor observed that Indian armed forces have demolished terror factories inside Pakistan and ensured that no one dares to indulge in a misadventure in future.

“The adversary, however, is targeting civilians and on the night of May 7-8, attempted to engage a number of military targets in the country, including Jammu Kashmir. These were neutralised. We need to be alert and civil administration, defence and law enforcement authorities must work unitedly to tackle all the challenges on the ground,” he added.
