“We have also taken the help of BSF and they too have been deployed at some places for tackling the situation,” he added.
The personnel, arriving here, would be given some orientation before their deployment, he said adding, “Till Friday, we need heavy deployment in almost all parts of Valley to tackle the situation”.
