Pertinently, post the killing of Burhan Wani in July 2016, the four districts of south Kashmir-Kulgam, Anantnag, Shopian and Pulwama have emerged as the epicenter of Kashmir’s new-age militancy.
Majority of the Militants active in these four districts are locals and the most worrying part for security grid is that there is no let down in the Militant recruitment in the region.
“The Army is hopeful that the Radio Raabta would also help them to reach out to the young population. The station would be on air for the maximum part of the day and all programmes would be in Urdu and Kashmir languages,” the official said.
“In the initial phases, Raabta will play all songs of all genres starting from Sufi songs in the morning, ” the official said, adding,”The programmes would reflect special interests and needs of local community.”
