Assam BJP election ad campaign 'Assam without BJP' shows Muslims overcrowding the Guwahati airport & stadium, among other places. Assembly polls are due in 2026.
The encounter comes 2 days after a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam. It is the latest in a spate of engagements across J&K as militant activity shows signs of resurgence.
Troops on the LoC intercepted the infiltrators, resulting in a firefight, the army said, adding that the infiltration bid was foiled in Uri Nala of the north Kashmir district.
Tunnels were identified as a “lacunae” that may have been used by terror operatives to infiltrate into India. BSF is also deploying scanners on experimental basis to detect such tunnels.
In Part-6 of the J&K Despatch series—on 1st assembly polls held in the UT in 10 yrs—ThePrint looks at how resumption of terror activities may hurt the existing peace on LoC.

General Manoj Pande said Kashmir is witnessing a new trend where local youth are being used by Pakistan's proxy groups to give an indigenous colour to insurgency.
When Israelis pushed out Arabs in 1948, they didn’t think that embittered refugees would turn into a permanent threat to their new state. This was a catastrophic miscalculation.
ISKP, a sub-continental branch of the Islamic State, is said to have vowed to extend operations in Kashmir, on encouragement from Pakistan’s security establishment.
Pakistan’s army has been a rentier force available to a reasonable bidder. It has never come to the aid of any Muslims including Palestinians or the Gazans, except making noises here and there.
What a rotten paranoid campaign by the BJP. Hope they get their just desserts from the people of Assam. Anyway, the BJP will have their own Governor who will work hard to ensure that if any other party wins the elections, they will not function smoothly. Sad state of affairs which one prays that the people of the state can reverse.
