Good to see our security forces getting the recognition they deserve! Operation Sindoor shows their dedication to keeping J&K safe. The Amarnath Yatra security planning is equally important - millions of devotees visit every year. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

While I appreciate the security measures, I hope the focus isn't just on military solutions. We need more development projects and job opportunities in J&K to address root causes. Peace will come when local youth see a better future.

The coordination between Army, CAPFs, and local police is crucial. Last year's yatra went smoothly because of such planning. Hope this year will be even better with advanced preparations. Kudos to our forces!

Security is important but let's not forget the pilgrims' comfort. Last time my relatives went, they faced many basic facility issues. Hope the administration improves sanitation, medical facilities and food arrangements too.

'Terror-Free J&K' should be our ultimate goal. But we must ensure innocent civilians don't suffer during operations. Intelligence-led precise operations are the right approach. Also, need to counter propaganda that radicalizes youth.

As someone who visited Amarnath last year, I can say the security arrangements were excellent. But the administration should also focus on environmental protection - the yatra brings so much plastic waste to those beautiful mountains. ♻️
