Which commander of the same Lashkar-e-Taiba group was neutralised at Dachigam?
- A.Junaid Bhat
- B.Suleman
- C.Yasir
- D.Asif Fauji
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Junaid Bhat, who was neutralised at Dachigam on 3 December 2024, the first of the four commanders of this group to be accounted for. Option B, Suleman, is wrong because he was neutralised on 28 July 2025 in Operation Mahadev. Option C, Yasir, is wrong because he was neutralised on 4 September 2026 in Operation Asdhar. Option D is wrong because Asif Fauji is another name for Musa himself, the commander neutralised at Gurwatkalan in Budgam district, and the question asks about a different member of the group. The Ministry of Home Affairs credited these results to counter-terrorism work carried out in close coordination by the Jammu and Kashmir Police, the Indian Army and the Central Armed Police Forces.
