Unveiling the Secret War, Ex-DGP SP Vaid Reveals Infiltration of 600 Pakistan SSG Commandos in J&K
In a startling revelation, former Director General of Police (DGP) Dr. SP Vaid has claimed that approximately 600 commandos from Pakistan's elite Special Service Group (SSG) have infiltrated Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), spearheading a series of terror attacks. These covert operations, he asserts, are orchestrated under the command of Adil Rahmani, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the SSG.
The gravity of this infiltration became evident with the recent involvement of a Border Action Team (BAT) of the Pakistan Army in the Machil sector of Kupwara district on July 27. This incident underscores the direct participation of the Pakistan Army in the ongoing violence in the region. Dr. Vaid has characterized these actions as a "secret war" against India, necessitating a robust and equivalent response.
Dr. Vaid detailed that these 600 SSG commandos, under the supervision of Adil Rahmani, have been air-dropped into various locations across J&K. Lt. Col. Shahid Saleem, another high-ranking officer of the SSG, is reportedly leading these infiltrators on the ground. Their mission involves not only executing attacks but also establishing a network of sleeper cells and over ground workers. These networks provide vital local support, including intelligence, food, and logistical aid, which are crucial for the success of their operations.
The Pakistan Army's strategy appears meticulously planned, targeting both the Jammu division and the Kashmir Valley. The objective is to create widespread panic and instability in the region. According to Dr. Vaid, these commandos are focusing their efforts on the 16 Corps (White Knight Corps, Jammu) and the 15 Corps (Chinar Corps, Kashmir), aiming to carry out frequent attacks.
In addition to the 600 commandos already on the ground, two more battalions of the SSG are reportedly on standby, ready to join the operation. This indicates a significant escalation in Pakistan's covert military activities in the region.
The SSG, known for its rigorous training and elite status within the Pakistan Army, plays a pivotal role in unconventional warfare. Their involvement in J&K marks a concerning development in the ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan over the disputed territory. The infiltration of such a substantial number of highly trained commandos poses a serious threat to India's national security.
The Indian government and military forces are now faced with the challenge of identifying and neutralizing these infiltrators. The revelation by Dr. Vaid has underscored the urgent need for enhanced vigilance and strategic countermeasures to combat this clandestine threat.
As the situation unfolds, it is clear that the stakes are high. The infiltration of SSG commandos into J&K represents a new dimension of the conflict, requiring a nuanced and decisive response from Indian authorities.
