Jalandhar Cantonment Board warns residents against ‘False Narratives’ on security checks
Jalandhar, August 3, 2026: The Jalandhar Cantonment Board has appealed to residents to remain cautious of people allegedly claiming to be the “voice” of Cantonment residents and making what it described as false statements regarding security checks and traffic management measures in the area.
The Board said the measures have been undertaken in the collective interest and safety of Cantonment residents, particularly in view of security threats, the drug menace, incidents of theft, eve-teasing, threats to schools and traffic accidents.
The Cantonment Board urged residents not to be misled or influenced by what it termed a “false narrative” being propagated by certain elements, and advised them to exercise caution before supporting such claims.
The Board reiterated that it would continue to take necessary steps to strengthen security and improve traffic management, with the objective of making Jalandhar Cantonment a safer and more secure place for all residents.
