After Punjab terror attack, agencies told to upgrade security grid in J&K 7/28/2015 11:28:15 PM Early Times Report Jammu, July 28: Following the terror attack at Dinanagar in Punjab, that left seven people, including an SP, dead, security agencies have been asked to upgrade security grid in J&K.Official sources said that troops deployed on LoC in J&K have been directed to intensify round the clock patrolling on the border in order to prevent militants waiting across the borders to infiltrate into the Indian territory. According to these sources,the BSF,guarding the 187-km ling International Border in Jammu sector has been asked to take specific measures for foiling any ingress bid because in the past militants had sneaked into Jammu from across the IB for carrying out terrorist attacks on the police station and had attempted to target the Army camp at Samba. Security forces deployed within the state have been told to tone up their anti-insurgency mechanism so that neither the terrorists were able to attack security pickets and police stations nor target political leaders. Specific instructions have gone to police to upgrade the security grid in and around each police station and police post. SPs and Dy.SPs have been asked to visit each police station and camp in their areas and ensure that these police stations did not remain vulnerable to the militant attacks. Police officers have been told to beef up security around the police stations by raising the height of the walls surrounding the police stations. Each gate should be guarded by armed sentinels and steps be taken to check the identity of each visitor before he or she is allowed in lest militants should attack the police station or post while wearing police or Army fatigue as had been the case in Dinanagar in Gurdaspur district of Punjab.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
