Poonch has been relatively peaceful lately, but we cannot be complacent. Glad they are focusing on community policing and public grievances. Transparency builds trust.

Important to see them address both traditional security threats and modern cybercrime. The Nasha Mukt Abhiyan is crucial—drugs are ruining many young lives in the region.

People-friendly policing is the need of the hour. But we also need to see concrete results—fewer complaints of harassment by local police than just meetings. Let's hope the implementation is as good as the plan. 🤔

Cybercrime ki problem toh internet access badhne ke saath saath badh rahi hai. Koi dedicated cyber police station ho toh accha hoga. 😊

Impressive to see modern policing techniques being discussed. The use of PowerPoint presentations shows they are taking a data-driven approach. Hope this translates to safer streets.

Ek baat toh clear hai—security grid ko strong rakhna bahut zaroori hai, especially border areas mein. Coordination between units is key. Good work by J&K Police! 🇮🇳
