The Indian Army has on Tuesday said that the Jaish-e-Mohammad leadership stands eliminated 100 hours after the Pulwama terrorist attack. "I would like to inform that in less than 100 hours of the Pulwama terrorist attack, we have eliminated JeM leadership in the valley which was being handled by the JeM from Pakistan," Kanwal Jeet Singh Dhillon, Corps Commander of Chinar Corps, said.

"Anyone who has picked up a gun will be killed and eliminated," he said after making the announcement.

The Corps Commander also said, "In the Kashmiri society, the mother has a great role to play. I would request the mothers of Kashmir to please request their sons who have joined terrorism to surrender and get back to the mainstream. Anyone who has picked up the gun will be killed and eliminated unless he surrenders."

Talking about the Pulwama suicide bombing, he said, "The type of car bomb attack that took place in Pulwama on Feb 14, happened after a long time in Kashmir. We will keep all options open to deal with these kinds of attacks. We have leads on the type of explosives used but I can't share the details as an investigation is underway."
