As part of ongoing efforts to strengthen preventive security measures, Spear Corps Red Shield Gunners conducted a Joint Mock Drill at Tinsukia Railway Station, a key public utility and critical infrastructure node in the region. The exercise focused on preparedness and coordinated response against potential threats posed by Anti-National Elements (ANE) targeting vital public spaces and administrative installations.
The mock drill simulated realistic hostile scenarios at the railway station, testing response mechanisms, communication protocols and on-ground coordination among multiple agencies. Elements of Special Forces, in close coordination with the State Police, Government Railway Police (GRP) and Civil Administration, participated in the exercise.
The drill aimed to validate existing Joint Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), identify areas for improvement, and enhance interoperability among participating agencies. Emphasis was laid on swift threat neutralisation, crowd management, casualty evacuation and restoration of normalcy in minimum time.
Such joint exercises play a vital role in enhancing inter-agency synergy and operational readiness. The drill also served to visibly reassure local citizens, reinforcing a strong sense of security and confidence in the collective ability of security forces to respond effectively to emerging threats.
