Of Surrendering Militants....



New Norms

Policy to ensure there’s no repeat of Liyaqat Shah type incidence and eliminate misunderstandings between police of different states
J&K Police will post men on the Nepal border to ensure every surrendering militant gets a safe passage
There was no official policy on how to handle ex-militants coming via unofficial Nepal route, which lead to huge embarrassment for the govt.
Return of 241 ex-militants since 2010 has been managed largely through an informal understanding between different agencies.
