In a major morning raid, operations were carried out across multiple regions, including Srinagar, Ganderbal, Bandipora, Kulgam, Budgam, Anantnag, and Pulwama, leading to the disruption of the recruitment ring.

 

The TLM group had been actively engaging youth to lure them into terrorist activities. The police explained that after the exposure of LeT’s previous offshoot, the Resistance Front (TRF), this new faction, TLM, was likely formed to maintain LeT’s influence in the region.
