The bustling city of Hyderabad, known for its vibrant culture and technological prowess, is gearing up for a security overhaul as terror threats loom large. With two major international events on the horizon, the Telangana government has swiftly responded to intelligence warnings, placing the state's security apparatus on high alert. This comes in the wake of the tragic Pahalgam terror attack in Kashmir, which has raised concerns about potential follow-up strikes.
The upcoming Bharat Summit, a prestigious gathering of global leaders and politicians, and the Miss World-2025 beauty pageant are expected to attract a significant international audience. The summit, scheduled for April 25-26, will host approximately 400 delegates from a hundred countries, including high-profile attendees like Rahul Gandhi. Simultaneously, the Miss World competition will bring contestants from 140 countries to the city. This influx of international visitors has prompted authorities to bolster security measures, particularly around the event venues, the HICC, and Cyberabad.
In a proactive move, the state police have intensified their efforts, focusing on tourist hotspots and previously targeted locations. The Hi-Tech City area, a hub for foreign nationals, is under strict surveillance. Chief Secretary Shanthi Kumari and DGP Jitender have ordered law enforcement agencies to take swift action, with counter-intelligence teams monitoring suspicious activities. The old city area, notorious for its criminal history, will also see increased police patrols and checks to deter any potential threats.
As the events draw near, the Cyberabad Commissionerate will transform into a highly monitored zone, ensuring the safety of participants and visitors alike. This heightened security response underscores the state's commitment to safeguarding its citizens and international guests, leaving no stone unturned in the face of potential terror threats.
