Rajnath urges Kashmiri youth not to get influenced by Pak sponsored terrorists

New Delhi: Asserting that Pakistan sponsored terrorists are using social media to gather crowds, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday urged the Kashmiri youth not to get influenced by them. “Pakistan sponsored terrorists are trying to create panic in Jammu and Kashmir. They are trying to destabilize. We are replying in the same manner. There is a new trend to pelt stones on security forces during the anti-terror operations. They are being influenced by Pakistani forces. I appeal to them not to be influenced. Pakistan groups are using social media to gather crowd," he said. Asserting that terrorism is being dealt with the way it should be, Rajnath said India will be successful in this. Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police (DGP) S. P. Vaid on Thursday alleged that Pakistan is responsible for instigating the youth of the Kashmir Valley to pelt stones during encounter. "There is misuse of social media by the people, who are inimical to the peace of valley and our country. As the encounter starts, they start using social media, instigating young boys to reach the place of encounter and throw stones so that terrorists can get out of the spot. Some of these accounts have been traced across (Pakistan)," Vaid told ANI. He said that the armed forces keep on changing their strategies to tackle the unrest in the valley, adding their experience of previous years helps them to handle the situation.
