Let us tell you that the Union Home Ministry has removed BSF DG Nitin Agarwal and Special DG YB Khurania from their posts on Friday night. Nitin Agarwal has been sent back to his original cadre Kerala and Khurania has been sent back to his cadre Odisha. It is believed that this step has been taken by the central government due to the continuous terrorist incidents in Jammu and Kashmir for some time. Modi government has taken a big step to neutralize the terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir and after deploying 3000 soldiers, now it has decided to deploy 2 battalions of Assam Rifles as well. With this, now 5000 army soldiers including para commandos will be deployed in Jammu region to eliminate the terrorists.
