New Delhi: Pakistan has formulated a new strategy to promote radicalisation among youths through vested groups and social media to give it the shape of a civil resistance in Jammu and Kashmir, Rajya Sabha was informed on Wednesday.
"This year, Pakistan strategy has been to try and promote radicalisation through vested groups and social media so that this can be given the shape of a civil resistance," Minister of State for Home Hansraj Ahir said in a reply to a written question.
The terrorist groups have become desperate and were inciting youth to attack the security forces in Jammu and Kashmir, he said.
Kashmir has seen nearly two weeks of violence and curfew after Hizbul militant Burhan Wani was killed by the security forces.
