According to him, some of those killed in the Dangri areas were refugees from the Pakistan occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).

The Over Ground Workers (OGWs) and those sheltering and supporting terrorists will be identified. Those involved in the killings in Dangri will soon be tracked down to be brought to justice, said the Union Home Minister.

He said that he discussed all aspects with the security forces and intelligence agencies that have a high level of confidence and will work out a security grid for the Jammu Division and put it in place within 3 months.
