Srinagar- Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha led-administration has terminated two more government employees over terror links, invoking his zero-tolerance policy.
Official sources said that the employees were terminated under Article 311(2)(c) of the Constitution for their alleged links with Pakistan-backed terror outfits Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, reported news agency KNO.
They said one of them, Farhat Ali Khanday, a Class-IV employee in the Education Department in Ramban, was found to be operating as a key facilitator for Hizb-ul-Mujahideen.
โInvestigations revealed that he used his government position as a cover to revive terrorist networks, channel hawala funds, and strengthen terrorist cadres, even after securing bail in earlier terror-related cases,โ they said.
They added the second employee, Mohammad Shafi Dar from Bandipora, employed in the Rural Development Department, was identified as an active terror associate of LeT. โHe provided logistics, safe houses, intelligence inputs, and was involved in weapons recovery during a joint security operation in April 2025โ.
