out daily anti-sabotage checks ahead of the Amarnath Yatra, which is scheduled to start from July 3, officials said.<br \/>\nThe 38-day annual pilgrimage is scheduled to start from the twin routes \u2014 the traditional 48-km Pahalgam route in Anantnag district and the shorter but steeper 14-km Baltal route in Ganderbal district \u2014 leading to the 3,880-metre-high Amarnath cave shrine.<br \/>\nThe first batch of pilgrims will leave for Kashmir from the Jammu-based Bhagwati Nagar base camp a day before the start of the yatra.<br \/>\n\u201cIn view of the upcoming Amarnath Yatra, the Jammu Police has significantly bolstered the security arrangements by establishing joint nakas (checkpoints) at multiple strategic locations across the district,\u201d a police spokesperson said.<br \/>\nHe said the checkpoints have been set up in coordination with paramilitary forces to ensure a seamless and secure pilgrimage experience.<br \/>\nThe checkpoints will be operational round the clock in high-sensitivity and high-mobility zones, including on national highways, city peripheries and routes leading to the Bhagwati Nagar base camp, the spokesperson said.<br \/>\nPersonnel from police, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and other agencies have been deployed for intensive frisking, surveillance and verification operations.<br \/>\nSenior police officers are personally monitoring the operations at the checkpoints to ensure alertness, professionalism and public convenience, the spokesperson said.<br \/>\n\u201cThe naka teams have been directed to maintain a balance between rigorous checking and respectful behaviour towards pilgrims and civilians,\u201d he added.<br \/>\nSpecial attention is being given to vehicle checking, identity verification and detection of suspicious movement, supported by technical inputs and facial recognition systems (FRS) at vulnerable and crowded locations, he said.<br \/>\n\u201cInstructions have also been passed to conduct random checks at hotels, guesthouses and lodgement centres,\u201d the spokesperson said.<br \/>\nPolice have urged citizens and pilgrims to cooperate with the naka teams, keep valid identity proofs and report any suspicious activity immediately. \u201cPublic support remains crucial in maintaining peace and order during the holy yatra,\u201d the spokesperson said.<br \/>\nMeanwhile, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Jammu, Joginder Singh, along with the group commander of the SPG and other senior police officers, conducted a comprehensive security review along the yatra route, from the traffic checkpost at Nagrota to Saloora along the Jammu-Srinagar national highway.<br \/>\nThe high-level team inspected deployment points and interacted with officers deployed along the route, the spokesperson said.<br \/>\n\u201cA detailed briefing session was held to apprise the officers of the current threat scenario and the standard operating procedures to be followed while performing duties,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nThe officers were directed to conduct daily anti-sabotage checks, particularly in areas where expressway construction is underway, which have been identified as vulnerable zones, he said, adding, \u201cEmphasis was also laid on maintaining high alertness and ensuring coordinated efforts among all security agencies.\u201d<br \/>\nThe SSP underlined the importance of inter-agency cooperation and a timely response to any situation, reiterating the administration\u2019s commitment to ensuring a safe and secure passage for all pilgrims.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30324\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30324\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img
