Operation Abhyaas: Simulating Scenarios with Precision

Six locations across Jharkhand witnessed the commencement of civil defence mock drills as alarms blared, echoing the concurrent military strikes in Pakistan and PoK by Indian forces. This extensive exercise, dubbed 'Operation Abhyaas,' was orchestrated in response to directives from the Ministry of Home Affairs, following the recent Pahalgam terror attack.

Conducted over three hours, the drills encompassed districts like Ranchi and Jamshedpur, ensuring collaboration between civil defence teams and emergency services. The simulated scenarios aimed to reinforce agency coordination, speed up disaster response, and elevate public awareness on emergency preparedness.

As the military retaliated against terror conduits in Pahalgam's massacre aftermath, Jharkhand's drill showcased potential crises, involving evacuations and siren-induced warnings. Authorities urged residents to stay calm, affirming the exercise's necessity in safeguarding communities against looming threats.
