Authorities in Srinagar have set-up central controls rooms across Kashmir to monitor developments in the wake of missile strikes by India on nine terror infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
“In view of the prevailing situation, a Joint Control Room is established at the District Emergency Operation Centre (DEOC), Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Srinagar under the overall supervision of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), Srinagar,” the local district magistrate said in an order.
Similar control rooms have been set up across 10 districts of Kashmir.
The control room can be contacted to address public concerns, coordinate emergency response services, and offer necessary support and assistance.
Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir government has asked all administrative secretaries and heads of departments not to sanction employees any leave except under exceptional circumstances.
