Joint security mock drills were conducted in Ganderbal to strengthen coordination among police, paramilitary forces, and civil administration in handling emergency situations.
The exercises focused on preparedness for terror strikes, hostage scenarios, and disaster management, ensuring rapid response capabilities in the district.
Officials said the drills were aimed at testing communication systems, operational readiness, and inter-agency cooperation to safeguard public safety.
Such joint drills are part of routine security measures in Jammu & Kashmir, designed to enhance confidence among citizens and demonstrate the ability of agencies to respond effectively to threats.
