The Faridabad terror module came to light after police arrested two overground workers (OGWs) linked to terrorist groups. During their interrogation, investigators gathered information that led to the arrest of Dr. Adil Rather from Qazigund, eventually exposing the entire network behind the module.
Officials are now concerned that some professionals who were dismissed from government jobs in Jammu and Kashmir for suspected terror links may have later been hired by institutions outside the Union Territory without proper background checks.
The revelation that educated and financially stable professionals, including doctors, were involved in terrorism has deeply shocked the local community. Many honest professionals now worry that the actions of a few could damage their reputation and create unnecessary hardships.
Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha has assured that innocent people will not be harassed, but those with proven terror connections will face strict action. The exposure of this “white-collar” terror network has reinforced the administration’s earlier decision to dismiss government employees linked to extremist activities.
Meanwhile, several political parties, including the ruling National Conference, have criticized the Lt Governor’s strong measures, accusing the administration of being too harsh in its approach toward suspected employees.
