The Home Minister said the biggest work done in Jammu and Kashmir is that the central forces have taken "decisive control" of the fight against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism
Praising the Central Reserve Police Force or the CRPF, the country's largest paramilitary force, Home Minister Amit Shah said in a few years the force may no longer be needed in Jammu and Kashmir and northeast.
"The resolve with which CRPF has been working in Kashmir, Naxal areas and Northeast, I'm confident that within next few years, in all three regions, we may not require use of CRPF and maintain complete peace in three regions. I'm confident. And if it happens, the whole credit goes to CRPF," said Mr Shah at the 83rd raising day parade of the CRPF.
The Home Minister said the biggest work done in Jammu and Kashmir is that the central forces have taken "decisive control" of the fight against Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
He also lauded the efforts of the local administration in its crusade against corruption and taking developmental activities to new heights in the Union Territory.
