Cops 'erred', skipped SOP ahead of Vance's India visit
J&K Police potentially overlooked vulnerability mapping in terror-prone zones before US Vice-President J D Vance’s visit, a standard procedure since the Chittisinghpora massacre. This SOP involves identifying vulnerable areas and enhancing security during high-profile visits. Security officials suggest that implementing this mapping, especially in tourist hotspots like Pahalgam, could have deterred potential attacks and ensured a swifter response.
