Some youth had been misled (in the past) and in a fit of anger gone astray, and we have been able to bring many of them back,” Singh told reporters here.

He said there are some reports of infiltration and “we recently saw two Pakistani terrorists apprehended by the Army in Gulmarg sector”.September 4, the Army said Pakistan is pushing infiltrators into Kashmir to carry out terrorist activities and create a disturbance while playing video clips showing two Pakistani nationals associated with the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terror group — Mohammad Khalil and Mohammad Nazim of Rawalpindi — who were arrested in Gulmarg sector August 21.
