Srinagar, 5 June (H.S.): In a continued effort to bolster local security and strengthen community defense mechanisms, the Tiger Division continues to successfully conduct comprehensive training program for VDGs. A total of 100 VDGs are attending training in Jammu at Police Firing Range, Sunjuwan. The training is focused on enhancing the operational capabilities of VDG members and strengthen the coordination between VDGs & security forces.

These personnel were trained on firing, basic weapon handling, tactical drills and security protocols, under the supervision of experienced Indian Army Instructors. The aim of the training was to empower local volunteers to act as a strong support to regular security forces in sensitive areas, and to respond effectively in times of emergency.

This initiative reaffirms the Indian Army’s commitment to engage with local population and foster a sense of safety and self-reliance through structured capacity-building efforts.
