Early Times Report
REASI, June 4: Professionally untrained but highly committed for self & community defense against terrorists equipped with sophisticated arms, VDGs have proved themselves as wall of defense against millitancy in remote hilly inhabitations in Jammu zone of J&K.
Considering it an invaluable asset to the department and a force multiplier for security of the region, District Police Reasi chalked out a detailed strategy for practice fire for the members of village defence guard of district Reasi. Under this schedule, range classification has been initiated at firing butt for the members of Village Defence Guards of Reasi.
Under this exercise all VDG members are called at the nearest firing butts of their areas and fire practice has been done after cleaning and zeroing their weapons. VDG members are swarming on firing butts with zest and zeal and are excited to check their capabilities in firing with their .303 weapons and are welcoming this step of Reasi Police.
Considering it an important exercise for those who didn't check their weapons and fired since long, SSP Reasi Conveyed that a schedule of one week will be helpful for nearly 5547 members including 20 women members of district Reasi who are deployed in their own villages for safety and security of the villagers.
VDG being a force Multiplier considered as first response to thwart any nefarious designs of anti national element in remote areas.
Mohita Sharma-IPS Senior Superintendent of Police Reasi further stressed that since VDG played a pivotal role in safety and security in the villages, to rejuvenate them, it is necessary to exercise & practice the firing by their weapons which can only be done with such exercises from time to time and conveyed that Reasi Police will conduct many other exercises with the involvement of VDG members of district Reasi in future.
