The militant attack on the Jammu & Kashmir police is a reflection of their dejection and despair. In the past few months these militant groups have lost a sizeable number of their commanders and infiltration in the valley has also reduced. These militants who are now a disgruntled lot are in search of soft targets. The Jammu & Kashmir police who are resident Kashmiris are being targeted by these militants in an act of desperation. Fortunately the Army has assured that they would fight the militants together with the J&K police.
