Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Farooq Abdullah, said in Srinagar on April 1 that the State does not have sufficient security forces to deal with terrorism and after the deployment of army along the borders, the security situation in the interior areas had deteriorated. Responding to terrorism related questions during the State Legislative Assembly session, he said that with the withdrawal of army from interior areas of Udhampur, Mahore, Rajouri, Budhal, Poonch and Doda and other areas in Kashmir valley, terrorists have started moving freely and had resorted to trigger killings of innocent civilians. He admitted that civilian killings in several areas had increased after deployment of army on borders. According to him, in several places, the para-military forces have been deployed but the State does not have sufficient forces to tackle the prevailing situation. The Chief Minister said that he had taken up the issue with the Central government and has requested them to send additional forces to the State in order to provide adequate security.

The Union government on April 16 announced a three-pronged strategy to tackle terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, which includes pro-active approach towards cross-border terrorism. Replying to a written question in Lok Sabha, Minister of State for Home Affairs Vidyasagar Rao said besides the pro-active approach towards cross-border terrorism, the Government is laying stress on accelerating economic development in the State and is open to talks with all groups which eschew the path of violence. However, he said there was no proposal to hold talks with terrorists or separatist outfits. On Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's call asking terrorists and separatist outfits to join the electoral process, Rao said it "has evoked strong reaction from pro-Pakistan militant groups to the extent that they have issued threats of stern action against those participating in elections." The Minister added that the government was providing all possible assistance as required by the Election Commission for smooth conduct of elections in the State at an appropriate time.
