Security Forces Launch Massive Search in Rajouri After CCTV Spots Two Terrorists

In a significant development in Jammu and Kashmir, security forces have launched a massive search operation in the Rajouri district after closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras captured two suspected terrorists in the area. The operation, which began in the early hours of the morning, involves personnel from the Indian Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and paramilitary forces.

According to official sources, the CCTV footage, obtained from a local market, showed two armed individuals believed to be terrorists moving through a densely populated area. The footage was analyzed by intelligence agencies, leading to the rapid mobilization of security forces to prevent any potential attack and to apprehend the suspects.

The search operation is concentrated in the forested and hilly terrain of Rajouri, which has seen militant activity in the past. Authorities have cordoned off several villages and are conducting door-to-door searches. Residents have been advised to stay indoors, and schools in the area have been closed as a precautionary measure.

Inspector General of Police, Jammu Zone, confirmed the operation and stated, 'We are taking all necessary measures to neutralize any threat. The public is cooperating, and we urge everyone to remain vigilant.'

This operation comes amid heightened security in the region following recent intelligence inputs about possible militant infiltration attempts. The security grid along the Line of Control (LoC) has also been strengthened.

The development underscores the continued challenges faced by security forces in combating terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. No contact has been made with the suspects yet, and the search is ongoing.

Supreme Court Upholds Madras HC Order Striking Down Tamil Nadu Reservation Notification for Converts

The Supreme Court has dismissed the Tamil Nadu government's appeal and upheld a Madras High Court order quashing a State notification that extended reservation benefits to converts to Islam from communities already listed as backward. A Bench headed by Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra held that conversion alone does not make a person a member of a notified backward Muslim community, and that the notification created an 'artificial group' without the statutory social checks the law requires.
