Srinagar, Nov 11 (WS/VP): If you are a passionate trekker or adventure enthusiast, don’t forget to inform the police first before planning your visit to any adventurous place.
Trekkers and adventure enthusiasts should inform the nearest police station about their travel plans and expected routes, especially in areas where there might be security operations. This protocol ensures that we can act swiftly to ensure their safety if unexpected incidents occur,” said Kashmir police chief Vidhi Kumar Birdi.
“We encourage everyone—locals, tourists, and especially trekkers—to use the helpline services, including dialing 100 or directly reaching out to police stations, should they face any situation that requires immediate intervention. This way, the police can ensure swift assistance while coordinating with ongoing operations,” the Kashmir police chief added.
This development comes after two trekkers accidentally became involved in an anti-militancy operation in the woods of the summer capital Srinagar on Sunday. However, the trekkers were rescued after they dialed 100 and informed the authorities. (WS/VP)
