Terror attack in border cities is causing concern and Srinagar and it is surroudings suffer the most in recent time. Indian border cities are facing the brunt of terror attacks that is causing severe damage to the property and claiming lives of security forces deployed by the government in these areas. India takes another hit as the third para commomando dies in terror mop upin Pampore town on the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway. Yet another officer of the army’s elite Para Regiment was killed while trying to flush out terrorists holed up in a civilian building. With that, India has taken another hit at the hands of Pakistan backed militants, taking the toll in the ongoing encounter to six and the deceased include three army commandos, including two Captains and a terrorist. The fierce attack continued for a day and it gives the feeling that we lack in security measures and that expose our weak defence. It is high time we beef up our security in the border areas and fight fire with fire without causing much human loss to our forces.
