Srinagar: Over 190 people, including 47 security personnel and 108 terrorists, were killed in the 12-month period from Januray 15 last year.
About 800 persons were also arrested, while four magisterial inquiries have been ordered during the same period, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said in a written reply to a question by opposition National Conference leader AM Sagar in the Legislative Assembly.
Ms Mufti, who also holds the home ministry, said a total of 146 terrorism-related incidents took place between January 15, 2015 to January 15, 2016, leaving 169 people - 108 terrorists, 39 security personnel and 22 civilians - dead.
A total of 181 incidents of border firing were reported during the same period in the state which left 22 persons including eight security personnel dead and 75 others, including 13 securitymen injured, she said.
