Police get rightfully criticised on social media for poor work ethics and corruption, but when they do splendid work, they deserve praise on the same scale too.
Until 2019, posters glorifying terror groups were a common sight in Kashmir. The police would usually remove them, but not every time was there a serious investigation into who put them up.
The busting of Faridabad's white-collar terror module began when on 19 Oct some police officers in Srinagar noticed posters praising a banned terror outfit, something that might once have been dismissed as routine propaganda. But this time, the J&K Police got curious. The SSP Srinagar GV Sundeep Chakravarthy insisted that the source be traced, refusing to let it pass as just another poster incident.
That single decision, to investigate promptly, set off a butterfly effect. CCTV footage led to Dr. Adil Ahmed Rather of Saharanpur, which led to Dr. Muzzamil Shakeel, the seizure of 3,000 kg of IED-making material, and finally to a full-blown terror module stretching from Kashmir to Delhi and Faridabad.
Yes, one blast did happen, but had the J&K Police not acted when they did, those explosives, ten to fifteen times more than Pulwama, could have unleashed devastation on a scale this country hasn’t seen since 26/11.
This is how policing should work: alert eyes, curious minds, and relentless follow-through. J&K Police, Haryana Police, UP Police, and everyone else involved, well done. Please keep giving us more opportunities to say good things about the police.

I am honoured by the invitation of the government of India to lead an all-party delegation to five key capitals, to present our nation’s point of view on recent events.
When national interest is involved, and my services are required, I will not be found wanting.
Jai Hind! 🇮🇳
If the west thinks that it can order India to sit quiet after arming Pakistan through an IMF aid at a time when Indian civilians are under attack, then it must understand that the time of their control over India is over. This is New India. We care about the safety and security of our people more than anything else.
