The Indian Army has initiated a high-intensity annual security operation named ‘Operation SHIVA 2025’ to safeguard the Shri Amarnath Yatra. This operation is especially significant due to elevated threats posed by Pakistan-backed proxy groups. It involves meticulous coordination between the Indian Army, civil administration, and Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) to ensure the safety and smooth conduct of the pilgrimage. The launch of this operation highlights the strategic importance of the Yatra and the proactive measures taken to neutralise any potential threats to national security and civilian safety.
