As per news report of The Indian Express, with August 5 marking three years since the revocation of special status to J&K, Singh told The Indian Express that the new modus operandi of militants’ handlers is “they immediately ask them (recruits) to commit an act of terror violence — throw a grenade, fire at somebody or kill someone”. “Once they are involved, it becomes a way of preventing their return to society,” he said.
