Due to the continuous efforts of the Indian Army, the strong fort of Shopian is now collapsing. One by one the security forces are stacking all the small and big terrorists in the encounter and their secret hideouts are becoming their burial grounds in Shopian, which is considered as the dream of terrorists. Within four days, 14 terrorists, including two big Hizbul commanders, have been killed. If you ignore a few incidents, then there was no stone pelting in the recent anti-terror operations nor did anyone strike the terrorists killed. It is clear that local support for the terrorists is constantly shrinking.

According to the media report, 250 domestic and foreign terrorists were listed in the Kashmir Valley this year. About 70 of them were active in Shopian. Of these, 50 were local. In the last five months, reportedly a dozen local youths became terrorists and most of them were piled up or they returned to their homes. Shopian's stronghold was not so simple. Three years ago, when the security forces started a campaign to end terror, Shopian seemed the most difficult target. Shopian located on the left side of the Pirpanchal hills in South Kashmir has always been favorable for terrorists. This is also their gateway to the Jammu region. The forest is far away. It is a rural district. The militants never lacked cadre nor refugees in this area. The far-flung apple orchards, fields, forests, and rivulets helped to make them safe havens, while the influence of separatists and the alliance of terrorists and politics continued to serve as a safety shield for them. Like other districts of South Kashmir, the Jamaat influence here.
