The Story in Brief
Delhi Police and the National Security Guard (NSG), along with several central and state agencies, conducted a joint counter-terrorism exercise across the national capital on Monday. The drill aimed to assess preparedness for possible terror attacks ahead of Independence Day.
The agencies rehearsed coordinated responses to simulated scenarios, testing communication and rapid deployment. The exercise covered multiple locations in Delhi, though specific sites were not disclosed for security reasons.
The Indian Opinion
The drill is standard procedure, but lazy narratives will paint it as panic or as proof of a credible threat. Neither is backed by fact. What matters is whether the agencies fix the gaps the exercise reveals, especially coordination between local police and central forces. The real test is not the drill itself but the follow-up: will Delhi Police release a public after-action report with concrete improvements? That would calm nerves more than any rehearsal.
