Breaking the Backbone of Terror: The Story of Operation Keller

                                                                             

Originally and initially Operation Killer was coined in the very past in UNO’s second major counter offensive against Chinese communist people’s Volunteer Army PVA and the North Korean Army KPA during the Korean war. India responded to the terrorist attack in Biasaran valley which is meadows near world famous tourist destination Pahalgam where the Pakistan sponsored terrorists killed 26 civilians all tourists but one local man who sort to help the tourists to be saved and fought the terrorists and he too was killed rather martyred by the brutes in the form and shape of humans but they can be called most savage and inhuman as they martyred all these civilians by identifying them with their religion and killed 25 Hindu tourists without any fault of theirs. 

This terrorist attack on tourists was unprecedented and unparallel in the history of terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. This tragedy shook not only Jammu and Kashmir ,but whole of India. The most savage and inhuman act was condemned by the people of Kashmir who wanted that security forces should give stringent punishment to the killers and their backers. It was perhaps the first time when Kashmiris of all hues and colours came on the roads and spontaneously observed bandh and held protests across Kashmir showing solidarity with the bereaved families. Whole of India stood as one and demanded stern punishment for the terrorists. 

The Modi government demonstrated resolve and asked the Operation Sindoor undertaken, and carried out the strikes on the infrastructure sites of terrorists in POJK and Pakistan. In all nine such terrorist hideouts and terrorist camps were targetted with missile strikes and drones by the Indian army and these were destroyed killing well over 100 terrorists. Pakistan took these strikes on terrorist sites as war on Pakistan and thus instead of supporting India in its fight against terrorists, resorted to attacks on military installations and even attacked with missiles and drones on civilian areas, schools and hospitals in all attacked 36 places in north India. All the missiles and drones of Pakistan were neutralized ,defused and intercepted and thus Pakistan failed in its offensive against India. Our army responded proportionally but with great restraint and responsibility resorted to missile and drone strikes on the air bases and military installations and inflicted maximum loss on the enemy. Our Operation Sindoor was a success and India took revenge of the Pahalgam massacre by killing more than 100 terrorists and dismantled their hideouts in POJK and Pakistan. 

As against this Indian Army resorted to Operation Keller to hunt down and kill terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir after the Pahalgam terror attack and avenge the dastardly killings which shamed Kashmiris and shook the nation. A day after the army engaged and killed three hardcore terrorists in an encounter in the Tral area in Pulwama district, HM was able to recover a cache of arms and ammunition from the encounter site. This was the second success of the forces after the first strike counter terrorist action in Shopian’s kills zone area. Thus far in these two strikes under operation keller, six ECO terrorists had been eliminated (liquidated) with no casualties to the security forces. dreaded terrorists of the LeT and all the slain terrorists were involved in several terrorists acts and have since been shot dead by the valiant Jawans.

Thus far in these two strikes under operation keller, six ECO terrorists had been eliminated (liquidated) with no casualties to the security forces.

Army is thus maintaining its edge over terrorists and is hunting and liquidating terrorists and making an effort to cleanse valley from terrorists and the OWG’s were also arrested in several places in Kashmir. While nation celebrates Operation Sindoor , Indian Army was engage into a hunt and kill three LeT Terrorists and recovered huge ache of arms and ammunition. After Pahalgam attack, our security forces resorted to multiple cordon and search operations and at lest six terrorists were tracked and killed post Pahalgam terror attack. Shahid Kutty ,the chief of LeT’s proxy outfit The Resistance Force TRF the terrorist group behind the Pahalgam attack were reportedly killed in Operation Kellar in shopian. 

Indian Armed forces on Tuesday eliminated three LeT terrorists in a counter -terrorism operation codenamed as ‘Operation Keller’ in the Zinpather kellar area of Jammu and Kashmir’s shopian. The incident is noteworthy due to the timing as India and Pakistan, at war with each other for several days, agreed to a ceasefire on Saturday the 10th of May, which began on the commencement of the ceasefire agreement, effective 5pm according to Indian time. The army continues to push down on terrorists, its task to eradicate terrorists and free the Kashmir valley of terrorists imposed and outsourced by Pakistan; and if one takes into consideration what the people of the valley are hoping for, at this point terrorism should be finally put down once and for all, and if that is to occur, what a day that will be for Jammu and Kashmir.
