J&K Administration Dismisses Five Government Employees Over Terror Links

Move aimed at dismantling terror support networks within the system


The Jammu & Kashmir administration has dismissed five government employees from service after investigations revealed their alleged links with terrorist organizations operating in the region. Officials said the action was taken under constitutional provisions to safeguard public order and national security.

Sources in the administration confirmed that intelligence agencies had gathered credible evidence indicating that the dismissed employees were in contact with banned militant outfits. One of them was reportedly in touch with a senior commander of a Pakistan-based terror group.

Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha has repeatedly emphasized that there is no place for individuals supporting terrorism within the government system. With these latest dismissals, the total number of employees removed for terror-related activities since 2021 has risen to 85.

Officials clarified that the action followed due verification of intelligence inputs and was not arbitrary. The employees belonged to different departments, highlighting the administration’s resolve to eliminate terror influence across all levels of governance.

Security analysts believe such measures are crucial to breaking the internal support structures that help militant groups survive. They note that terror networks often rely on sympathizers within institutions for logistics, information, and safe passage.

The move has been welcomed by many sections of society, who view it as a strong message against extremism. However, authorities have reiterated that the action targets individuals involved in unlawful activities and not any community or group.

The administration has assured that the crackdown will continue as part of a broader strategy to ensure lasting peace and stability in Jammu & Kashmir.
