Why do you think that such a stink is being raised in Chindu and Kerala about LDW?
I think i can answer this. Kerala under the commies (the commies are now the de facto Muslim party ever since the CM Pinarayi s daughter married a Muslim guy) ., is undergoing a radical transformation underneath (the vote banks of muslims and even the christians have pivoted to the "commie" ) ., everything the party involved is directed by the m loving high command, they literally can orchestrate any sort of action up from their ground level party worker esp with the pliable media.
Now an anecdote ., long back i knew a friend who knew a guy who came in from LDW ( M guy with a bunch of reservations to boot) , 2 months down the line we got leaflets asking support for SIMI ( a highly radicalised M outfit that about 5 years later was banned) , that organisation was taking root at that very point in time ., and it was the LDW guy who was running the whole jig in our area.
LDW is a hot house of highly radicalised Ms who uptill now had " immunity" because of their location. Smuggling of narcotics and weapons is rampant and i have heard quite a few stories on this count. LDW has quite a few of their "safe houses" for smuggling and also provide haven for Pakistani agents and sleeper cells. Some of you would remember SIMI has direct connections with ISI.
The whole stink is being orchestrated by the commie party at their cadre level on the ground as they cannot be seen publicly supporting any move against the LDW administrator. The admin has previous experience with rooting out such weeds and has especially been chosen by the highest levels in GOI to manage a problem that has gone out of hand literally.
Another anecdote being the military has intercepted direct comms between certain elements based in LDW and Kerala with their known ISI handlers., the extent to which this goes is not known but it is really bad. For such a strategically significant part of the country this is a major vulnerability that needs to be rectified asap.
I also find a lot of people incl those in BRF are poorly informed about what is happening in LDW.
