The government of Jammu and Kashmir has recently announced the creation of a new investigating agency, the State Investigation Agency (SIA).

The government has reasoned that the new body has been created in order to swiftly probe and prosecute militancy cases.

Presently, The National Investigation Agency (NIA), India's counter-terrorist task force, plays an active role in J&K.

The NIA has its office in Jammu from where it has been operating, including probing militancy cases in the region.

The NIA was created following the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, and the demand for tougher anti-terror laws in the country.

The national agency started its operations in Kashmir in July 2017.

In July 2017, the Enforcement Directorate arrested certain individuals in connection with an August 2005 money-laundering case.

Since 2017, the NIA has been handling high-profile militancy cases, and terror-financing and money-laundering cases with help from the J&K police.
