The government is preparing for a major operation in the wake of terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kashmir. National Security Guard (NSG) has been deployed against the terrorists. The Home Ministry hopes that the deployment of NSG will restrain terrorists from there. At the same time, NSG will also have experience of handling live encounters.
There was a long debate about the deployment of the NSG in the Kashmir Valley. After all, the government has stamped this. Now the NSG has been included in large operations to deal with the terrorists. The Central Government expects that due to the involvement of the NSG, there is a reduction in the number of civilians killed in operations.
For the past several months, there was a discussion of the deployment of NSG in Jammu. In Jammu, a team of Hit House Interventions of NSG has been sent now. The house intervention team proves to be very effective in handling the hostage situation. So far, the Army and the CRPF conduct their campaign to deal with such situation.
According to the Ministry of Home Affairs, 82 people of the 2017 security forces were killed and 34 people have died so far this year. In 2017, 68 people were killed and 38 people have died this year so far. All of these are quite trend snippers. The NSG team did not have the live operation yet. Now they will also be involved in the encounter.
