While I appreciate the security measures, I hope they're also considering the inconvenience to regular commuters. Maybe they could share the schedule of such operations in advance?

Body scanners in tunnels? That's next level! Wonder how long the checks take though. Last time I was at a security checkpoint, it took ages.

As someone who travels through Qazigund frequently, I feel much safer knowing about these measures. The drug problem has been worrying - glad to see action being taken.

Impressive tech deployment! Though I hope the police are also getting proper training to use these sophisticated devices effectively. Tech is only as good as its operators.

The mention of thermal screens is interesting - does this mean they can detect hidden compartments in vehicles? The tech behind modern policing is fascinating! 🔍
