According to the Indian government, there were over 600 terrorist incidents in the conflict-ridden state of Jammu and Kashmir in the year 2018 alone. The northern-most state had been at the center of a prolonged dispute between India and Pakistan since 1947, owing to border tensions and religion-based ideological differences. This led military insurgencies and terrorist activities of local separatists.
