In the wake of global terrorism concerns, the Andaman & Nicobar Islands have been strengthening their counter-terrorism measures through intelligence gathering and enhanced security protocols. The region, being strategically located in the Indian Ocean, is vulnerable to potential threats. In light of this, the police have been working closely with national intelligence agencies to monitor any suspicious activities and respond to emerging security challenges.
Local law enforcement has also been receiving specialized training in counter-terrorism tactics, including bomb detection, crisis management, and intelligence analysis. The authorities have stepped up surveillance and patrols, particularly in coastal areas and ports, to prevent the illegal entry of weapons and materials used for terrorism. Collaborative efforts with neighboring countries and maritime security agencies are also in place to ensure that the islands remain safe from any terrorist threat.
