Srinagar, Dec 18 (IBNS): In the wake of terror attack on an army convoy on Saturday, security of the forces, during their movement on Srinagar-Jammu national highway, was reviewed at a high-level meeting chaired by state police chief K Rajendra Kumar on Sunday.

Kumar pressed for devising foolproof mechanism.

As per a statement sent by the police headquarters, the DGP, while addressing the meeting, directed the officers to devise foolproof plan for safe and secure movement of the people and the security forces on the national highway.

"The DGP asked all the officers involved in the security of the National Highway to put in additional efforts for greater coordination and cooperation. He emphasised upon the Army authorities to strengthen the corridor protection. He also emphasised upon the CRPF to fine tune  the ROPs along the National Highway," read the statement.

While highlighting the need of tackling the militancy effectively, the DGP said surgical operations with minimum collateral damages should be conducted.

In their respective briefs, the officers gave details of the security arrangements made by their organisations for the national highway.

Earlier, IGP Kashmir Zone, SJM Gillani briefed about the security situation of south Kashmir and also highlighted recent operations conducted against the militants.

He also briefed the meeting about the law and order situation and measures taken by the police to investigate and solve the recent bank robberies.
