On a question that how such initiatives can overcome the attempts of militancy revival and radicalisation of youth in the region, Lt Gen Singh said, “attempts from adversaries are always there to divide and radicalise the society but we along with fellow friends from the corporate world and from the mainstream India and the Army across, both in education, sports and other sectors from the very beginning channelising our youth positively to keep them away from the wrong path.”
He however, lauded the role of ‘awaam’ (masses) and various agencies, who are collectively making efforts for the development and progress of the region and contributing in nation building by making youth strong and positive towards nation’s development.
“Army is changing the mindsets of the society through different initiatives and it is because of the role of each and everyone, the Jammu region for the last one decade is seeing peace and the violence is almost negligible because people are joining hands with the Army for progress and better tomorrow,” said the GOC.
Vikas Singh from Petronet said, “Under project, 30 selected students from entire Jammu region will be imparted coaching by qualified teachers in a fully residential facility established by the Indian Army at Reasi.”
