India has shown it will no longer tolerate cross-border terror: PoJK activist Amjad Ayub Mirza

"India has shown it will no longer tolerate cross-border terror," Mirza told ANI news agency.

Praising India's Operation Sindoor, which was launched on May 7 as a response to Pahalgam terror attack, Mirza said it was a decisive and strategic counter-terrorism move that has sent shockwaves across Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) and the Pakistani military establishment.

"Terrorists began evacuating their camps even before Operation Sindoor started. The first wave has been a resounding success," he said.

The Indian Armed Forces had targeted nine terror hubs in Pakistan and PoK.

The social activist told ANI that PoJK and Gilgit-Baltistan have long been hubs of terror activity, hosting numerous madrassas and camps run by outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.

"From Leepa to Jhelum valley, terror training is rampant, even in Muzaffarabad, the PoJK capital," he said.

Trying to corner the government, he accused Islamabad of prioritising military and terror activities over essential governance.

"There's no political or economic freedom in PoJK. People can't contest elections or get jobs unless they pledge loyalty to Pakistan's ideology," he said.

He said PoJK region lacked quality hospitals and educational institutes.

"There are no quality hospitals or educational institutions in PoJK, unlike in Jammu and Kashmir where A-class infrastructure exists," Mirza said.
