Chandigarh, September 30

Officiating DGP Iqbal Preet Singh Sahota on Thursday directed all border district SSPs to start ‘night domination' operations along the India-Pakistan international border from 9 pm to 4 am. The border districts include Pathankot, Gurdaspur, Batala, Amritsar (Rural), Tarn Taran, Ferozepur and Fazilka.

The DGP asked the SSPs to give special attention to drone movements and suspicious persons moving in vulnerable areas. He

also ordered SSPs to utilise all PCR/RRPS vehicles and bullet proof material to cover vulnerable places, besides activating all control rooms.

Sahota said additional nakas should be put-up on ancillary roads for checking of vehicles. “Inter-state nakas, especially on the J&K border should also be strengthened and all vehicles coming from Jammu & Kashmir should be thoroughly checked,” directed the DGP. — TNS
