Pakistan’s barbaric mindset revealed again
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Camera and arms retrieved from BAT member’s dead body
The Pakistan’s barbarism against Indian soldiers has been substantiated once again. Pakistan’s Border Action Team (BAT) which killed two Indian soldiers in an ambush on Thursday had planned to mutilate the soldiers and video record the act through the camera on their headbands.
The dead body of a BAT member, who was killed in the cross fire, had a camera fitted to his headband which would have recorded the attack. Dagger was also found on the body. This is for the first time when Indian army has caught a camera from Pakistan’s BAT member’s body.
An army officer was quoted saying that this has reflected “barbaric mindset of Pakistan army”. A Knife, one AK 47 rifle, four magazines and two grenades were also retrieved from the dead body. The operation was underway at the time of writing of the story.
This was the third attack by BAT team on the Indian side of the LoC. Pakistan army men and terrorists had decapitated two Indian soldiers in Krishna Ghati area in Poonch district on May 1.
Meanwhile, two army personnel were injured in an encounter on Sunday with militants who took refuge inside the premises of the Delhi Public School near Srinagar-Jammu national highway after attacking a CRPF party in Pantha Chowk area on Saturday evening. The militants reportedly entered the school after carrying out an attack on CRPF, killing one officer and injuring another.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Speaking about the caste survey report, Union Minister Giriraj Singh mentioned that the caste census will do nothing more than spreading confusion among the poor and public of the state. He added that the Bihar government should have given a report card that Nitish Kumar ruled the state fr 18 years and Lalu Yadav ruled the state for 15 years but they did not develop the state.
Earlier today Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said he plans to call all nine parties that are part of the ruling coalition, including Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav’s Rashtriya Janata Dal, to discuss next steps, which could include dealing with decisions to increase OBC quotas at 27 per cent.
Reports said that around 2.64 lakh enumerators fanned out across the state, documenting the details of 29 million registered households on 17 socio-economic criteria, ranging from employment, education, marital status, land holding and property ownership and caste. Enumerators will have to choose between 214 pre-registered castes that have been allotted to individual codes.
