There were many events in the last few months which prompted terror perpetrators sitting across our western border to think of a new strategy to revive terrorism.
New Delhi: Barely two days after three people including a businessman Makhan Lal Bindroo were killed in Srinagar, terrorists attacked a school in the Eidgah area of Srinagar and killed its principal and a teacher after checking the identity cards of all staff and ensuring that those were the two from the minority community.

Ever since the abrogation of Article 370 and start of “Operation All Out”, remarkable changes have been seen in the terror activities.

Here are the key points of Pakistan’s new terror strategy:
Avoid direct confrontation with the security forces
