Dr. Jitendra Singh wrote on X; “There was a concern communicated by the people of Marmat area in district Doda through former MLA Shakti Parihar about the plan to re-allocate the Army Camp from Goha (Marmat) which led to considerable apprehension in the minds of local people in the wake of recent terror activities in the region. The matter was taken up with Chief of the Army Staff, General Upendra Dwivedi”.
