| Lax security at Railway station leaves people vulnerable to militant threats | | Without security eye people watched telecast of Gorakhpur blasts on TV | | Jammu May 23 It seems the police and security agencies in Jammu had some supernatural instinct that is why they still lie in deep slumber when the nation is echoed with the bomb blasts recently. The blindfolded and overconfident security cover left Jammu Railways Station on the mercy of Almighty despite when all the news channels were carrying reports of Gorakhpur blasts. While the nation is left shocked and is reconciling from the ear deafening blasts at Religious Place Macca Mosque in Hyderabad, the Tuesday May 22 left Gorakhpur completely bewildered and in shock when three crude bomb blasts made people to run for safety. The empty checkpoints and left over post in addition to the heavy rush at Railway Station shivers many shopkeepers who just have faint memories of the militant attack on Railways Station. Need not to mention that Bus Stand and Jammu Railway Station, which are on the target of the militants to create terror, have already witnessed terror attack but the unmanned checkpoints give a feeling of insecurity to most of visitors to Jammu. Jam-packed platforms and paucity of security on the railway station really can lure the miscreants to carry out/accomplish their misdeeds but who cares? At the same time the counters of the concerned agencies about having CCTV Vigilance on the Railways Station too is under scanner as recently many local papers had pointed out that majority of the CCTVs are out of order. “Those that are working they give a faint picture of the all movable objects because of the poor picture quality of the CCTVs and their screens, some papers reported. Ironically the state is on high alert due to the ongoing militancy and frequent attempts from the various militant organizations to target the sensitive areas including Jammu Railways Station and Bus Stand. Recalling the past attack on the Railway Station Jammu few year back, a pilgrim to Vaishno Devi Raman Bajaj of Delhi the unmanned security check pints simply burden your worries about the security scenario. Another visitor pitying the security scenario at Railway Station pointed towards the TV telecasting coverage of the Gorakhpur blasts and then satirically questioned about their own security at this Railway Station.
