He further stated that the attacks were an indication that some elements were hell bent on fomenting further trouble to shatter the relative peace being enjoyed. 

He charged the Special Task Force to step up their efforts in winning the confidence of the people/communities. Stating that for peaceful operation to be achieved, a collaboration between the host communities and the Special Task Force had to be in place.
