Due to Army’s action, stone pelting has almost ended in valley: Army Chief

Srinagar: Army Chief General Bipin Rawat on Sunday said that the stone pelting incidents have almost ended due to Army’s action in the valley.

He also said that the situation was ‘comparatively better’ after anti-militancy operations, reported the Business Standard.

“The stone-pelting has almost ended, because we have been successful in ending their operation,” he told reporters.

The Army Chief assured that the situation in Kashmir is comparatively better now, and may not demand a surgical strike in near future.

“The condition in Kashmir is improving if you compare it with the situation during January and February. People there have understood that surgical strikes only end up disrupting the lives,” said General Rawat.
