While I support anti-terror operations, I hope innocent civilians aren't harassed during these raids. The police should maintain proper protocols and respect human rights.

The recovery of 360kg explosives in Faridabad is terrifying! These operations in J&K are much needed to prevent such incidents. Our forces are doing a great job protecting us.

Interesting to see the connection between drug smuggling and terrorism. The Nepali national with charas shows how these networks are interconnected. Comprehensive approach needed.

Finally some strong action! These terror ecosystems have been operating for too long. Hope this brings peace to Kashmir valley and normal life returns for our Kashmiri brothers and sisters.

The coordinated approach across multiple districts shows good planning. Checking at Navyug tunnel makes sense as it's a key entry point. Hope this leads to lasting peace in the region.
