Overview
- Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha chaired a high-level security review in Srinagar on Tuesday and called for tighter coordination between the Army, BSF, Jammu and Kashmir Police and intelligence agencies to end terrorism in the Union Territory.
- He directed forces to sustain pressure on terror networks by stepping up area-domination operations and targeting Over Ground Workers and narco-terror conduits that supply fighters with arms, cash and drugs.
- Officials were ordered to keep anti-drop and other hi-tech countermeasures active along the LoC and international border to prevent drone deliveries, while human intelligence units continue ground tracking of smuggling routes.
- The Lt Governor instructed police to strengthen public outreach by setting designated interaction hours, ensuring fair and transparent investigations, and monitoring social media to counter online radicalisation and blackmailing.
- Senior civil and police leaders briefed Sinha on local incidents that prompted the review and officials said the combined focus on technology, intelligence sharing and visible policing could reduce attacks and reassure vulnerable communities.
