In the wake of 'Operation Sindoor' launched after the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, the state government has established civil defence units in all 75 districts.
With this decision, the state will now have a total of 75 cyber police stations – one in each district.
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her budget speech for 2022-23 announced the setting up of 75 DBUs in 75 districts of the country to commemorate the 75 years of independence of the country.
'State governments can assess and lockdown any district where there are chances of spread of the disease,' Lav Agarwal, Joint Secretary Ministry of Health said.
