Amarnath Yatra Pilgrims Protected by Operation Shiva

Pilgrims undertaking the sacred Amarnath Yatra can breathe a sigh of relief. The Indian Army has launched “Operation Shiva,” a comprehensive security initiative designed to ensure a safe and peaceful pilgrimage experience.

8,500 Troops Deployed for Enhanced Security

As part of this multi-tiered security approach, the army has deployed a substantial force of 8,500 troops along both routes leading to the revered cave shrine. This robust presence aims to deter any potential threats and provide a reassuring presence for pilgrims.

High-Tech Drone Protection System in Place

In addition to the troop deployment, a cutting-edge counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) grid has been implemented. This advanced technology will provide constant surveillance and protection against potential drone-based threats, further bolstering the security measures in place.
