"A Hi-Tech system has been put in place by the CRPF notably the Udhampur-based 137th Battalion, to ensure the safe and orderly progress of the Amarnath Yatra in the Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory," they said.

"These cutting-edge drones equipped with high-resolution cameras are vigilantly monitoring the National Highway and its accompanying routes," the statement said.

The CRPF's unflinching dedication to protecting pilgrims has prompted them to equip its vehicles stationed on NH-44 with cutting-edge equipment, including Remote Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) Jammers.

The 137th Battalion is completely equipped to provide incident-free and flawless conduct during the forthcoming Holy Amarnath Yatra in 2023, according to CRPF sources.

"The CRPF is resolute in keeping a 24-hour watch on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway using their highly developed surveillance equipment, leaving no space for compromise in safety and security," it added.

The 62 Yatra starting on July 1 will kick off from the ancient paths of Nunwan in Pahalgam and Baltal in Central Kashmir's Ganderbal district.
