CRPF Chief Inspects Security Along Amarnath Yatra Route

His inspection reinforces proactive risk mitigation by integrating state police with paramilitary forces, supplemented by intelligence units, into a unified security grid.

Overview

  • On July 8, CRPF Director General G P Singh evaluated operational readiness at camps in Qazigund and Mirbazar.
  • He reviewed surveillance setups and fortification measures at checkpoints along the JammuSrinagar highway.
  • At Ramban and Kali Mata Mandir in Tekri, Singh met with Jammu and Kashmir Police, central armed police and intelligence officers to refine threat-response protocols.
  • This exercise builds on a security blueprint finalized in late May that established SOPs, real-time monitoring and anti-sabotage deployments across the pilgrimage corridor.
  • Officials say the joint deployment aims to preempt militant threats and manage logistics as tens of thousands of pilgrims undertake the annual trek until August 9.
