J&K L-G Dismisses Three Government Employees Due to Terror Links
The government in Jammu and Kashmir fired three government employees.
They were accused of supporting terrorist groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
One was a police constable, one a school teacher, and one a junior assistant.
The Lieutenant Governor made this decision under a rule that doesn't require a full investigation.
Critics say this approach is unfair, causes distress, and won't lead to peace.
The dismissals occurred days after calls for political solutions and prisoner releases.
More than 75 employees have been dismissed since 2020.
Three government employees in Jammu and Kashmir were dismissed by the Lieutenant Governor.
The dismissals were made under Article 311 due to alleged links to terrorist groups.
Those dismissed included a police constable, a school teacher, and a junior assistant.
Security agencies accuse the employees of supporting Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
The dismissals occurred after calls for political initiatives and prisoner releases.
