Jammu, Jan 12 : Security forces launched a massive search operation after drone activity was spotted in Kanachak belt here in the city outskirts, officials said on Wednesday.
Police on Wednesday said that the locals from village Dhab in Sandhwan area late on Tuesday night noticed the drone activity and reported the matter to the authorities.
“Acting swiftly, joint teams of police and BSF carried out a search operation in the area but found nothing,” police said adding that the searches were also carried out with the first light this morning but no suspicious object was found.
“As Republic Day is also nearing, the drone activity from the Pakistan side cannot be ruled out but we are on alert and maintaining close vigil along the international border,” they said.
Notably, last week BSF also lodged a protest with the Pakistan Rangers during Sector Commander level meet held at Octroi Border Outpost in Suchetgarh.
