The Jammu and Kashmir government has terminated the services of six government officials, including five policemen and a teacher, for their alleged involvement in financing terrorism through drug trafficking. The officials were dismissed under Article 311 by the Lieutenant Governor on August 3, based on reports filed by security agencies. This move is part of a broader effort to combat narco-terrorism in the region, which is reportedly linked to anti-India activities and the ISI's drug mafia. The action underscores the government's commitment to addressing the nexus between drug trafficking and terrorism.
