Srinagar, Nov 22: Jammu & Kashmir Police on Saturday carried out multiple security operations across the region, including industrial audits in Ganderbal, property seizure in Awantipora, heightened security in Chenab Valley, and a multi-agency exercise at Jammu Airport, officials said.
Officials told the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), that in Ganderbal, police conducted extensive inspections of industrial estates to audit stocks and usage of industrial chemicals.
