On Thursday night, National Security Guard (NSG) Black Cat commandos conducted a mock terrorist attack simulation at Mahakal Lok in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. The operation, which took place in darkness, aimed to test security preparedness at the Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple ahead of the upcoming Simhastha Mahaparv-2028, a major religious event expected to draw large crowds.
Around 110 commandos, along with personnel from various security agencies, participated in the exercise that began around 10 pm and continued until approximately 1.30 am. The commandos conducted the simulated attack near the temple's Neelkanth and Nandi gates, neutralising five mock terrorists and rescuing hostages. The drill encompassed various aspects of emergency response, including swift threat neutralisation, hostage rescue, emergency evacuation, and coordination among security personnel.
The exercise also included a tabletop session to assess the overall emergency preparedness at the temple complex. Officials emphasized the importance of strengthening security measures at Mahakaleshwar Temple and Mahakal Lok due to the high volume of devotees attending the Simhastha-2028 event.
