In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the killer militia raised by Indian Army in the name of Village Defense Guards to eliminate pro-freedom people and terrorize Muslim population is receiving enhanced weapon training at the Indian army’s special camps in different areas of Rajouri district.
In these training camps, specially-designated weapon trainers are supervising the training of the killer gang. The Village Defence Guards, previously known as Village Defence Committees, are equipped with sophisticated rifles and shotguns, which are only in the custody of the Indian Army.
