JAMMU, Apr 29: Director General of Police J&K, Dilbag Singh, launched the title “Ababil” for a short film on terrorism at a ceremony held at the Police Headquarters in Jammu.

The DGP also commended ADGP Jammu and his team for their support to the makers of the film and assured them of Police Headquarters’ full assistance.
Speaking to the media, the DGP explained that the purpose of the film is to highlight the sacrifices of civilians and policemen over the past three decades, and pay tribute to those who sacrificed their lives in restoring normalcy and peace in Jammu and Kashmir.
He also noted that the film would be a message to misguided individuals that patriotism and protecting society is the ultimate duty of every individual.
The producer of the film, Waseem Ashraf, expressed his gratitude to the J&K Police for its support and cooperation, and explained that the concept of the film is to spread awareness among youth lured by anti-national elements with wrong perspectives to indulge in subversive/anti-national activities.
