Rail service will be reviewed till Amarnath Yatra, Srinagar
Sources say that the railway service starting from Katra to Srinagar will also be discussed in the meeting today. Strict security arrangements will be asked for this rail service. Because, terrorist organizations are trying to harm it. Apart from this, there will also be discussion about the upcoming Shri Amarnath Yatra. Because this time many people will go on travel by rail. In such a situation, there is a security challenge about both. To deal with this, security forces will be deployed on a large scale. Important decisions can be taken to strengthen the security of the Amarnath Yatra.
Security wall is also an important issue
Please tell that a security wall is to be built on the international border of Samba, Kathua and Jammu. Local people have to be taken to take the wall.
