Srinagar, Oct 2 : Jammu and Kashmir Special Director General (CID), R.R.Swain said on Monday that the fight of the local police force is to remove fear from the heart and mind of the common citizen. Talking to media on the sidelines of an official function here, the Special Director General added, "J&K Police is trying to root out fear from the common man's heart and mind, and our fight against those who promote violence is purely for the general public." "Our police is quietly fighting the enemy who is creating violence with outside support and influence."
