J&K Lt Governor Orders Toughened Security and Narco‑terror Measures

The administration formalized monthly property‑attachment reviews, tightened force coordination to prevent infiltration, and set up local information cells to curb drug‑linked terror and misinformation

Overview

  • Manoj Sinha chaired a high‑level security review on Friday in Srinagar with all Deputy Commissioners and senior police officers to assess district preparedness and operational plans.
  • He directed sustained, aggressive action against terror modules and narco‑terror networks, including monthly reviews that will consider attaching properties tied to drug‑terror support.
  • The L‑G ordered tighter counter‑infiltration grids and seamless operational coordination among Jammu & Kashmir Police, the Army and Central Armed Police Forces for joint counter‑terror efforts.
  • Officials were told to monitor anti‑national elements inside administration ranks, prioritise counter‑radicalisation work, set up district social‑media cells to counter misinformation, and speed grievance redressal to preserve communal harmony.
  • Sinha also instructed winter preparedness measures such as ensuring stocks of essential supplies and robust snow‑clearance systems, and the directives build on the 2019 reorganisation that places law and order under the Lt Governor and central authorities.
