Terrorists minimise internal communication, pose challenges to security forces: BSF official
Srinagar, Nov 30 (PTI) Terrorists have cut down on communications amongst themselves which is posing a huge challenge to the security forces in tracking them down, a senior BSF officer said here on Saturday.
Inspector General of BSF, Kashmir Frontier, Ashok Yadav, said this while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of BSF’s Raising Day celebrations at STC Humhama in the outskirts of the city.
“Terrorists always try to strengthen their security protocol. They minimise communication which creates gaps in intelligence gathering.
“But, all the agencies analyse whatever inputs they get to identify their hideouts and their supporters so as to neutralise them,” Yadav said.
Asked whether the minimum communication amongst terrorists was posing as a challenge to track them, the IG BSF said, “It is a huge challenge,” but, he added, the security agencies will also implement new strategies to counter that.
“The security and intelligence agencies are brainstorming to find ways to counter these new challenges,” he added.
