The state is going through many internal security problems like insurgency and associated terrorism. Number of terrorist attacks is rising in the state and it is getting difficult for the government to control the menace. It is largely because of the support terrorist are getting from local population in hiding and carrying out their operations. Local people act as a shield or use stone pelting to stop army from catching the terrorists. A case has come up where a Major serving under you has used a civilian as a human shield in a counter terrorist operation. The civilian was caught while throwing stones on the army officials. Using him as a shield on a government vehicle deterred the locals from throwing the stones, further leading to a successful arrest of five terrorists.
