Senior Superintendent of Police Srinagar, Dr Sandeep Chakravarti on Wednesday said that a joint mock drill was conducted at Yatra Niwas in Pantha Chowk to test coordination and emergency response ahead of Amarnath Yatra.

“Police, CAPF, SDRF and other agencies participated collectively. This mock drill sends out a strong message that the yatra is secure, and the administration is fully ready to deal with any situation,” he said.
