Srinagar, July 16 – In what appears to be a proactive step toward enhancing safety and maintaining law and order, Jammu & Kashmir is likely to see the deployment of additional CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force) companies in the coming hours.
According to sources familiar with the development, internal communications have already begun circulating regarding the planned movement. A formal order is expected to be released soon.
A senior official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, revealed that this deployment is part of a larger security recalibration in the Union Territory. The goal is to support the Jammu and Kashmir police and bolster their efforts in sensitive and strategic zones.
This move comes as part of regular security assessments, where the presence of security personnel is realigned to meet emerging challenges and ground realities. The newly deployed CRPF companies will be tasked with setting up checkpoints, conducting searches, maintaining vigil in key districts, and responding swiftly to any potential threats.
It’s not just about numbers—this reinforcement reflects the government’s commitment to ensuring that citizens feel safer and that peace is preserved, especially in areas where tensions can escalate quickly.
While locals may observe more personnel on the ground, authorities urge the public to cooperate and remain calm, noting that these measures are preventative and part of ongoing efforts to maintain a peaceful atmosphere.
Security officials continue to stress that the deployment is not meant to alarm but to ensure preparedness and quick response in case of any untoward incident.
