Shah, who is currently in Jammu, is on a two-day visit to the Union Territory to review security measures.

He is scheduled to visit the house of deceased police officer Humayun Muzammil Bhat in Humhama, before heading to the Rajbhawan for an overnight stay.

Deputy Superintendent of Police Bhat was among four security personnel who died in the line of duty while battling terrorists in 2023. The encounter took place on September 13 in the dense forests surrounding Gadool village of Kokernag in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district.

Shah will review the security in Kashmir in a meeting with top security forces and police officers on Tuesday.

He will also review the developmental projects underway in a separate meeting. (PTI)
