According to partial information collated past times the Southern Asia Terrorism Portal (SATP), at to the lowest degree 4 major incidents (each involving 3 or to a greater extent than fatalities) initiated past times the Maoists, withdraw maintain resulted inwards 27 SF fatalities inwards the electrical current yr so far (data till July 1, 2018). Since 2010, at to the lowest degree 81 such major incidents initiated past times the Maoists withdraw maintain resulted inwards 76 civilians, 602 SF too 21 Maoists fatalities.

Since 2010, at to the lowest degree 125 such incidents withdraw maintain been initiated past times SFs, resulting inwards 11 civilians, 12 SF too 674 Maoists fatalities. 

Strikingly, most of the major SF successes withdraw maintain been followed past times revenge attacks past times the Maoists. For instance: inwards 2018, on May 29, 2018, a Special Police squad killed 3 alleged Maoist cadres at Chandiya Dongari nether Bortalav Police Station limits inwards Rajnandgaon District, Chhattisgarh. The Maoist loss was avenged inwards the June 26, 2018, attack, when the Maoists killed half dozen Jharkhand Jaguar personnel.

Major Fatality Incidents since 2010


Nevertheless, a cursory await at information on major attacks indicates that attacks initiated past times the Maoists on SFs withdraw maintain been on the decline since 2010. The highest number of xviii major LWE initiated incidents was registered inwards 2010, according to the SATP database, inwards which 215 SF personnel were killed, inwards add-on to 34 civilians too 3 Maoists, too at to the lowest degree around other 36 persons were injured (including both civilians too SFs). Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 depression of 4 such attacks has been registered inwards each yr since 2016. In 2016 fatalities inwards these incidents included 27 SF personnel too 3 Maoists; inwards 2017, 48 SF personnel too ii Maoists; too inwards 2018, 27 SF personnel.

On the other hand, the attacks initiated past times SFs against the Maoists withdraw maintain followed a cyclical trend. The highest number of 23 major incidents against the Maoists was recorded inwards 2016, inwards which 118 Maoists were killed, spell 11 civilians too 12 SF personnel lost their lives too around other fifty persons sustained injuries (including both civilians too SF personnel). Just viii major SF initiated incidents were registered inwards 2015, with 35 Maoist fatalities.

Since 2010 a comparing of the major incidents initiated past times SFs too past times the Maoists shows that SFs secured a marginally positive SF:Maoist kill ratio of 1:1.11 across India. SFs also secured a positive SF:Maoist kill ratio of 1:1.53, for overall fatalities across all theatres during this period. There withdraw maintain been a full of 4,143 fatalities across the reason since 2010, including 1,722 civilians, 954 SF personnel too 1,467 Maoists (data till July 1, 2018).

The intensity of the Maoist conflict has been followed a broadly declining tendency and, according to information released past times the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA), spell 2,213 Naxalism-linked incidents were recorded inwards 2010, the number rose to 2,258 inwards 2009. Thereafter, 1,760 were killed inwards 2011; 1,415 inwards 2012; 1,136 inwards 2013, 1,091 inwards 2014; 1,089 inwards 2015; 1,048 inwards 2016; 908 inwards 2017; too 354 inwards 2018, upwards to May 15, 2018.

Speaking on the occasion of the Central Reserve Police Force’s (CRPFs) 79th Raising Day on March 24, 2018, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, so stated:

Maoism has move a serious challenge... but because of the gallant too determined activity of the CRPF too other Forces, these incidents withdraw maintain come upwards downwardly drastically. I tin can say that the LWE occupation inwards the reason has entered its concluding leg...



Unsurprisingly, the CPI-Maoist ‘central commission (CC)’, which met inwards Feb 2017 to review the progress of the ‘revolutionary movement’ inwards the country, had passed a resolution admitting that their displace was going through a ‘difficult’ stage all over the country. 

Certainly the Maoists are losing their sway across the country, yet recurrent Maoist attacks propose that they rest relentless inwards their efforts to regain lost ground, too this conflict is soundless far from over.

"We shall... consummate the fencing undeterred," Director General (DG) Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor vowed, equally he tweeted intelligence of the sepoy's death. He added that Afghanistan’s cooperation was required [for fencing of the border], too that this was inwards the mutual involvement of both countries.

This was the minute cross-border onslaught coming from Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan inwards 10 days. On June 15, 2018, v terrorists too 3 Army soldiers were killed during activity when militants from across the Pak-Afghan edge attempted multiple raids on Pakistani posts inwards the Shawal expanse of the North Waziristan District. According to ISPR, SFs repulsed the attempts to overrun posts too inflict major damage. During substitution of fire, 3 Army soldiers Havaldar Iftikhar, resident of Sargodha (KP), Sepoy Aftab from Chitral (KP) too Sepoy Usman, resident of Gujarat (Punjab), were killed. 

On June 3, 2018, SFs repulsed attacks from across the Pak-Afghan border, killing half dozen militants inwards the Bajaur District of KP. ISPR disclosed that the attacks targeted edge posts too edge fencing parties. SF personnel had foiled 7 infiltration attempts inwards the Bajaur expanse lonely during the preceding 24 hours. An ISPR Press Release stated: "Four security personnel too a soldier of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Air Force, deployed at an observation post, got injured during the substitution of fire… Taking payoff of ungoverned spaces too [with] facilitation [from] within Afghanistan, terrorists are resorting to such attacks to forestall fencing too structure of edge posts."

On May 13, 2018, at to the lowest degree half dozen Army personnel, including a junior commissioned officer, were killed too around other injured inwards a terrorist onslaught close the Afghan edge inwards the Shawal Valley expanse of North Waziristan Agency. Security officials stated that members of the Bomb Disposal Squad (BDS) were clearing a route close the Afghan edge for SFs, when a grouping of terrorists from Afghanistan's Paktika Province ambushed them. No militant grouping has claimed responsibleness for the attack.

On Apr 26, 2018, 3 militants too 1 soldier were killed during an substitution of burn along the Pak-Afghan edge inwards the Mohmand Agency of KP. The deceased soldier was identified equally Sepoy Farman Ullah (21).

ISPR stated that FC troops were fired upon from the Khost Province of Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan spell they were busy inwards "routine surveillance along Pak-Afghan edge for plugging of gaps too making necessary preparations for starting fencing inwards that area."

According to partial information compiled past times the Southern Asia Terrorism Portal (SATP), at that topographic point had been 7 incident of cross-border attacks inwards which sixteen SF personnel too fourteen militants withdraw maintain been killed so far inwards the electrical current yr (data till July 1, 2018). The whole of 2017 had recorded sixteen cross-border attacks inwards which 35 militants, xv SF personnel too 11 civilian were killed.

In a serial of tweets posted on his official account, ISPR Director General (DG) Major General Asif Ghafoor disclosed, on Nov 13, 2017, that at that topographic point had been an increasing tendency of cross-border terrorist attacks on Pakistani posts from Afghanistan. Almost 308 terrorist attacks had taken identify inwards 2017, the highest number since 2012, when 324 attacks were reported. On an average at that topographic point withdraw maintain been 248 attacks every yr since 2012. About 29 soldiers were killed inwards the attacks over the preceding half dozen years.

Pakistan’s unilateral fencing too structure of novel observation posts on the long edge with Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan is a os of controversy betwixt the ii countries, equally good equally with the militants who withdraw maintain been crossing over the edge at will. Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan contends that the installation of a physical barrier would brand this edge permanent. In September 2005, Islamic Republic of Pakistan had announced for the inaugural off fourth dimension that it had plans to build a 2,611-kilometre fence (1,230km inwards KP too 1,381km inwards Balochistan) along its edge with Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan to banking concern check armed militants too drug smugglers moving betwixt the ii countries.

The conflict over the legitimacy of the Durand Line – the edge imposed past times Imperial Britain – betwixt Islamic Republic of Pakistan too Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan is to a greater extent than than a century old. The Durand Line, named after British diplomat Mortimer Durand, was drawn inwards 1893 equally the international edge betwixt British Republic of Republic of India too Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan inwards an understanding with Afghan ruler Abdur Rahman Khan. No Afghan Government has accepted the edge since the creation of Islamic Republic of Pakistan inwards 1947, on the grounds that the understanding with the British lapsed after their withdrawal from their Indian empire, too because it divides the Pashtun ethnic homeland too tribal communities living on both side of the border. These tribal populations are accustomed to moving dorsum too forth freely and, inwards around cases, ain reason on both sides of the border.

Pakistani plans for mining too fencing the edge were renewed on Dec 26, 2006, but were 1 time again opposed past times the Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan Government. The South Waziristan Agency of FATA saw a edge skirmish inwards Apr 2007. Pakistani SFs operating inwards South Waziristan made a three-tier security deployment on Apr 11, 2007, to halt cross-border infiltration past times militants into Afghanistan. Islamic Republic of Pakistan fenced 12-kilometers of its edge stretch with Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan to ‘choke off’ cross-border infiltration, but Afghan troops tore downwardly the fence on Apr 19, leading to a gun-battle, though at that topographic point were no casualties.

Despite Afghanistan’s opposition Islamic Republic of Pakistan later started earthworks operate on a several-hundred-kilometer-long trench along the Balochistan edge inwards Apr 2013. After most 3 years of constant efforts, an 1,100 kilometer trench inwards Balochistan along the Afghan edge was completed on June 20, 2016. The 11-foot-deep, 14-foot-wide ditch on the entire stretch of the edge was excavated nether the supervision of FC at a toll of PKR fourteen billion.

After the border skirmish with the Afghan Army on May 5, 2017, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Army initiated operate on constructing fence along the 2,611-kilometre long edge betwixt Islamic Republic of Pakistan too Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan on June 20, 2017, with an anticipated budget of PKR 56 billion (USD 505 million). According to ISPR, the procedure of phased fencing on the Pak-Afghan edge has commenced on the directions of the Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa. In Phase 1, high infiltration-prone edge areas inwards the Bajaur, Mohmand too Khyber agencies of FATA are beingness fenced. In Phase 2, fencing of the remaining edge areas, including Balochistan, is to live executed. Besides fencing, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Army too FC are constructing novel forts/border posts to better surveillance too defensibility.

To demonstrate the progress on the Pak-Afghan edge fencing, ISPR arranged a trip for journalists from the national impress media to Miramshah Valley on Feb 9, 2018. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 senior Army officeholder at Miramshah Divisional Headquarters told the reporters that fencing on 830 kilometres of the 1,229 kilometers-long Pak-Afghan edge roofing the Chitral too FATA portion would live completed past times Dec 2019. Thousands of soldiers too hundreds of vehicles are deployed at fourteen dissimilar sites on a daily footing to undertake the occupation of fencing from Chitral to South Waziristan, putting inwards 7,000 man-hours for the installation of pre-fabricated material. The inaugural off stage of the project, which volition consider the fencing of 432 kilometres of the most critical points along the border, is slated to live completed past times the terminate of 2018. The minute phase, called “desirable”, would consider the fencing of around other stretch of 400 kilometres. The entire projection was laid to live completed inwards the adjacent ii years.

As component subdivision of the project, structure of 150 of the 443 planned forts, around on mountaintops equally high equally 12,000 feet, had been completed. Another 750 forts with an inter-fort distance of 1.5 to 3 kilometers are nether structure or at a planning stage. Meanwhile, according to Feb 10, 2018, report, at to the lowest degree 1,100 edge posts withdraw maintain also been established.

Despite the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Army’s claim of strengthen edge management along the Pak-Afghan border, cross-border attacks on edge check-posts withdraw maintain occurred at regular intervals too resultant inwards the decease of SFs. In the meanwhile, the border’s porosity facilitates the displace into Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan of Pakistan-backed terrorists of the Taliban too Haqqani network, alongside others, too this flow has non diminished inwards whatever measure. The edge fencing is plainly intended to legitimize contentious borders. Controlling cross-border infiltration appears to live lilliputian to a greater extent than than a pretext.
