NEW DELHI: Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Sunday directed the security forces of the UT to ensure an "effective and forceful response," and that they have "full freedom to crush terror outfits ," after a grenade attack on Srinagar 'Sunday market' left 11 injured.
"The LG spoke to DGP Nalin Prabhat and senior officials of the security agencies on the grenade attack in Srinagar. He directed the security officials for an effective and forceful response to punish the terrorists and their associates," an official spokesman said.
"You have full freedom to crush terror outfits and leave no stone unturned to complete this mission," the LG said.
This came after J&K CM Omar Abdullah called upon the security apparatus to "do everything possible" at the earliest to stop the recent series of attacks.
"The last few days have been dominated by headlines of attacks & encounters in parts of the valley. Today’s news of a grenade attack on innocent shoppers at the ‘Sunday market’ in Srinagar is deeply disturbing. There can be no justification for targeting innocent civilians. The security apparatus must do everything possible to end this spurt of attacks at the earliest so that people can go about their lives without any fear," he said in a post on X.
This comes a day after the security forces in the valley eliminated Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander Usman in an anti-terror operation.
