Cross border terrorism has al ways been a significant issue for the country and politics. The intruders and infiltrators are a matter of prime concern. Nevertheless, with the forma tion of Prime Minister Nar endra Modi’s 3.0 government, the sudden surge in terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kash mir in the last one month has raised many questions. Since the formation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s third government, there has been a surge in terrorist in cidents in Jammu and Kash mir over the past month, prompting several questions. One major query is whether terrorists and Pakistan, the neighboring country, have been emboldened by Modi’s failure to secure a major ity on his own. Additionally, there are concerns whether terrorists aim to disrupt the upcoming elections in Jammu and Kashmir, given the enthusiastic voter turn out in the valley during the recent Lok Sabha elections, which dampened their mo rale. Moreover, terrorists appear frustrated by India’s steadfast stance on reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The surge in terrorist activi ties began immediately after PM Modi’s third-term oath taking and shows no signs of abating. On 9th June itself, a bus was attacked in the valley in which 9 people were killed. After this, terrorists attacked offi cers’ vehicles and police posts on different days in the month of June itself. After the in creasing incidents, PM Modi held a high level meeting with National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and other officers and gave strict instructions. Af ter this, the army and police took action and targeted the terrorists. But on last Monday, terrorists ambushed military vehicles in Kathua and carried out the biggest attack in the last one month. Five soldiers were martyred in this attack. Terrorists carried out four attacks in the month of June. Experts believe that these attacks cannot happen with out Pakistan’s help. Because Monday’s attack is being con sidered a big attack. Actually, the situation in Kashmir has changed since the removal of Article 370. The number of tourists has increased to a record level. The atmosphere in the valley had started be coming normal. There was also a huge reduction in ter rorist incidents. According to the government, between 2019 and 2023, a total of 579 terrorist incidents took place in which 818 terrorists were killed. Earlier, the number used to be in thousands. A total of 43 incidents took place in 2023. Whereas in 2024, 22 terrorist incidents have taken place so far. Half a dozen incidents have taken place in the last one month itself. In a way, terrorists are directly challenging the Modi 3.0 government. Although steps are being taken by the government, but the biggest question is how the terrorists’ morale has increased again. There is no doubt that whatev er coalition governments were in place before 2014, the mo rale of terrorists was always high. The entire Jammu and Kashmir was considered a dis turbed area. But the situation changed after the formation of the majority government in 2014. Although there were big attacks like Pulwama, the Modi government destroyed terrorist hideouts in Pakistan by conducting surgical and air strikes and gave a direct mes sage to the whole world that India now attacks even inside homes. In Modi 2.0, the government gained international attention by abolishing Article 370 in Kashmir, a move that fun damentally reshaped the re gion’s geopolitical landscape. This decision, which ended the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, was hailed as historic by supporters but drew strong opposition from parties like Congress, who criticized it as a political maneuver rather than a move
