Jammu, Nov 13: Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor (LG) Manoj Sinha on Thursday said security forces are determined to dismantle the terror ecosystem, but society must also join the fight by standing against terror sympathisers.

Terrorism poses a fundamental threat to peace and progress, and the people of Jammu and Kashmir have borne its brunt for more than three decades, the LG said at a special convocation ceremony of the University of Jammu here.

His remarks come in the backdrop of the November 10 blast near Delhi’s Red Fort, which claimed 13 lives and left several dead.

The blast took place in an explosives-laden car that was being driven by Dr Umar Nabi, who hailed from south Kashmir’s Pulwama. He has emerged as key in a terror network spanning Kashmir, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
