Authorities have intensified security measures at Jammu Railway Station ahead of the annual Amarnath Yatra, set to commence later this month. This move comes after a series of four terror attacks in Jammu's Reasi, Kathua, and Doda districts in the past four days, resulting in multiple casualties.

The security review meeting was chaired by Senior Superintendent of Police, Railways, Shailender Singh, and attended by officers from the Government Railway Police and other security agencies. Discussions focused on preventing any untoward incidents during the 52-day yatra.

New measures include establishing a joint police control room and enhancing mutual interaction among different security forces deployed at the railway station. The first batch of pilgrims will depart from the Jammu base camp for the Amarnath holy cave shrine on June 29.
