Srinagar, Feb 16 (IBNS): Jammu and Kashmir Governor N.N.Vohra on Tuesday directed security agencies to avoid collateral damage during anti-militancy operations in the Valley.

He stressed the need for enforcing strict preemptive measures, including imposition of reasonable restrictions, as part of the approach to be followed in minimizing inconvenience to the people at large and ensure that the encounters against militants do not result in injury or any unfortunate killing of innocent civilians.
 
The Governor also stressed the urgent importance of pro-active steps being taken for creating awareness amongst the people at large to keep them away from the area where operations against militants/terrorists were ongoing.
 
Vohra said there is need for the the use of increased application of technology to further improve the capability of security agencies and ensure against any co-lateral damage to the civil population while conducting anti-militancy operations.
