Kashmiri Pandit Employees Sent on Leave After Purported Terror Threat in Jammu and KashmirPreviousNext

A purported threat letter from the United Liberation Council, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, has targeted Kashmiri Pandit government employees in Jammu and Kashmir, naming individuals and revealing personal details. Following the threats, many Pandit employees have been sent on administrative leave or advised to work from home until late August. Authorities are investigating the threats and implementing security measures. The Panun Kashmir group has called for a thorough probe, while officials remain cautious about confirming the letter's authenticity amid concerns over community safety.
