Mock drill will be held tomorrow in the states bordering Pakistan, know why ‘Operation Shield’ was postponed

Srinagar. Under Operation Shield, now on May 31, mock drill will be conducted in the border states of Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Haryana and Union Territory Chandigarh. Earlier this civil security exercise was to be held on May 29, but it was postponed due to administrative reasons.
