Expressing great shock over the loss of several precious lives in the series of terror attacks in the region, Vikar said that the situation has deteriorated to a great extent, in the hitherto peaceful Jammu region while govt makes hollow claims at the cost of sacrifices of brave jawans.

Our forces are being targeted regularly and jawans laying down their lives, as over 42 Jawans have laid down their lives in over two years in the region, while the government makes false claims and misleads the nation about the ground situation.
Government should evolve an effective strategy in consultation with security experts to control militancy and ensure the smooth conduct of the Amarnath Yatra and ensuing assembly elections, without delay.
