Indian cities on alert, US asks citizens not to travel to J&K

Top cities in the country, including the national capital, are on high alert following the deadly Pahalgam terror attack.

The US has issued an advisory for its citizens asking them not to travel to Jammu and Kashmir. The attack has prompted a nationwide security response to prevent another such incident.

According to officials, the authorities have intensified security protocols in key areas, including Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur, Amritsar and Jammu.

The measures include increased surveillance at airports, railway stations and other critical infrastructure. Security personnel have been deployed in greater numbers, and random checks are being conducted to ensure public safety.

In Delhi, the police have intensified patrolling in sensitive zones and are coordinating with intelligence agencies to monitor any suspicious activities. Mumbai has similarly ramped up its security apparatus, focusing on crowded public spaces and transportation hubs.

The police have cautioned people to remain alert and report any suspicious activities. The government has assured the public that all necessary measures are being taken to ensure their safety and security.

“Terrorist attacks and violent civil unrest are possible in the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. Do not travel to this state (with the exception of visits to the eastern Ladakh region and its capital, Leh),” the advisory read.
