			Dashmesh Regiments leadership was destroyed during Operation Vadhi Pahar in 1991 Punjab,India and is referred to as balowali encounter where hundreds of combined troops of BSF,CRPF,PP and Indian army were deployed in the farm fields of Bolowali village. During this fierce encounter that took place for 3 days,many Indian security forces were KIA ( killed in action) and 5 dashmesh regiment militants KIA (killed in action) it is numbered that there 12000 troops deployed but some sources say that only 1200 troops were around Bolowali village and the rest were deployed when militants from BTFK ( bhindranwalas tiger force of khalistan) came to aid Seetal Singh( KIA) but these claims might be debated.
			*It is unclear if the dashmesh regiment was behind the [[2016–17 Targeted killings in Punjab, India]] since the media created a vague email address and no proof was given by the media that dashmesh regiment was behind the killings and some sources say that it was [[khalistan liberation force]] since the fact that dashmesh regiment was destroyed during operation Vadhi Pahar and no current leadership of dashmesh regiment is known.
