Army Chief’s visit to Jammu: Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi will visit Jammu today to review the security situation there. He will be briefed by the formation commanders about the areas being taken over by the security forces. The officer said that a security review meeting is also likely to be held with other security agencies during this period.

Army Chief’s visit is important

The visit of the Army Chief to the Jammu region, which is facing continuous attacks by terrorists, is considered important. During this, the security situation will be discussed in detail. Let us tell you that amid the increasing terrorist attacks, the army is preparing a new strategy here. In view of the infiltration of highly trained Pakistani terrorists, the Indian Army is re-adjusting its deployment in the area according to intelligence inputs and security needs. Defense sources told ANI that the Indian Army has deployed about 500 Para Special Force Commandos in the area to deal with 50-55 terrorists from Pakistan. These terrorists have entered Jammu to revive terrorism.

Intelligence agencies are also active

Intelligence agencies have also strengthened their mechanism in the area and are working to eliminate terror support infrastructure, including overground workers supporting terrorists, sources said. They said the Army has already deployed troops, including a brigade of around 3,500-4000 personnel, in the area to counter Pakistan’s proxy aggression here.
