Jammu, Poonch | May 6—Amidst the clamour for demilitarization and reduction of troops in the state, the militant outfits and their mentors across the border have decided to reinvigorate the rank and file in order to give a fillip to the terror activities.

Seventeen terrorists which include locals as well as foreigners were made responsible for the entire Poonch district and adjoining Mendhar and their area of operation was also demarcated.

These men have been assigned the task of tapping new youth and recruiting them to get training across the border. Infact, the top commanders of the terrorist outfits have decided to work in close coordination to ensure that youth of the area join the militant ranks in large numbers.
Another important task which has been assigned to this new team is to take action against Village Defence Committees and break the confidence of the local people.
In a startling revelation it was also discovered that a team of locals has also been constituted as recruiting board to identify the local youth, who can be lured successfully into anti-national activities. This team will move with the top militant commanders of the area and motivate the local youth for crossing the border.

The residents of these areas had helped the Indian Army during the Operation Sarp Vinash in 2003.
