Jammu and Kashmir Police have banned trekking, camping, and hiking in the Kokernag range of Anantnag district due to security concerns. Citing potential risks in forested and high-altitude zones, the order highlights recent incidents of unidentified individuals attempting to cross checkpoints. The ban, issued under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, aims to ensure public safety and prevent misuse of these areas for unlawful activities. Similar bans on VPNs have been imposed in other districts for national security reasons.
