Speaking about the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, he said that in last 10-15 days alone, more than 15 terrorists have been killed by Indian forces.
“All of this has been because of very close cooperation and coordination between all the security forces operating in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir,” Naravane said.
