Srinagar: Police have initiated a district-wide checking drive across various business establishments with particular focus on car dealers, automobile workshops, fertilizer shops and chemical shops whose records are being verified.
A police spokesperson said that the checking aims to ensure that the sale, purchase, storage and transportation of vehicles, fertilizers and chemicals are carried out strictly in line with existing regulations. Necessary documentation is being scrutinized to rule out any possibility of misuse.
He said the checks were conducted in Shopian, Kulgam, Anantnag, Ganderbal and Awantipora.
Police verified stock registers, scrutinised documentation, assessed storage practices, and examined the movement of regulated items to ensure full compliance with safety and legal norms.
These inspections were carried out to plug all possible loopholes that could be exploited for terror or criminal activities, and to maintain a robust security environment across the district, spokesperson said.
