In a bid to strengthen emergency preparedness and coordination among security agencies, the Pimpri-Chinchwad Police joined forces with the National Security Guard (NSG) for a major anti-terror mock drill at Infosys's Phase 2 campus in Hinjawadi on Thursday, August 6.

Police officials said the drill was designed to evaluate readiness for a potential terror strike and familiarise all participating agencies with their designated roles during such a crisis. Leading the operation was the NSG's 26 Special Composite Group from Mumbai, which also deployed a helicopter as part of the exercise. Seventeen US military commandos, currently undergoing training with the NSG, also joined in.

The drill also drew participation from the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation's (PCMC) Disaster Management Department, the MIDC Hinjawadi Fire Brigade, Infosys's own security personnel, and ambulance services.
 
 

Through the exercise, participants were walked through the standard protocol to be followed in the event of a terror attack, including the responsibilities of first responders, establishing inner and outer security perimeters, managing traffic flow, bomb-detection processes, and how anti-terror units should respond.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Special Branch) Dheeraj Patil said the objective of the exercise was to build stronger coordination between agencies and enhance overall preparedness to counter any future terror-related threats.
