JAMMU, Feb 7: Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta today appealed to J&K administration to take immediate necessary steps to improve the deteriorating law and order situation in Jammu region.
Kavinder was chairing a meeting with senior BJP leaders at party headquarters.
Speaking on the occasion, Kavinder expressed concern over unprecedented spike in the incidents of shootouts, murder, daylight robbery and thefts, sending ripples of fear and apprehensions among the residents as every nook and corner of the region has been facing such law and order problems.
He appealed the J&K administration to direct the police department to take swift and decisive action and restore public confidence in law enforcement.
“The use of surveillance cameras in vulnerable areas and public spaces could act as a deterrent for criminals and aid in quick investigations. Improving infrastructure in police stations, providing them with modern equipment and ensuring better resources could enhance the overall efficiency of law enforcement”, he said.
“Focus on rehabilitation programmes for drug addicts and youth in vulnerable areas could help break the cycle of crime and reduce the influence of illegal activities, he added.
