The search operation in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir continues amidst challenging weather conditions. Security forces have intensified their efforts following specific intelligence inputs regarding the movement of suspected individuals in the region.

The joint operation involves the Special Operations Group (SOG) of the local police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). The search is focused on several villages including Soyian Katha, Banjola forest, Jallian-Azamabad, Khanetar Mohalla, Kalsan, and Dupriana.

In addition to the ongoing operation, SOG units, along with troops from the Rashtriya Rifles, had previously conducted searches in areas of Kotli Bawin Ghali, Behra Kasab, Topa, and Manglaanu Mankote in Mendhar. However, these earlier searches did not result in any arrests.

Adding to the heightened security measures, the Army recently foiled an infiltration attempt in the Balakot area of Mendhar. Troops guarding the border detected a group of terrorists attempting to cross into the country from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The army engaged the infiltrators with heavy gunfire, causing them to retreat. A large-scale search operation was subsequently launched in the border area, with additional troops deployed to tighten the security. Drones and other surveillance technology are being utilized in the search operation.

These intensified search operations follow the recent arrest of two Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists in the Mandi area and the thwarting of an infiltration attempt along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Balakot sector. Security agencies believe that these events indicate ongoing attempts from across the border to disrupt peace in the region. As a result, forces have increased vigilance along infiltration routes and intensified combing operations in forested and border areas of Poonch.

The current security operations highlight the persistent challenges faced by security forces in the Poonch district, which lies close to the Line of Control. The combined efforts of the police, paramilitary forces, and the army demonstrate a commitment to maintaining security and preventing infiltration in the region.
