There have been back-to-back grenade attacks in Jammu which means we are living in a high alert zone. But surprisingly when YoungBites team went to MA stadium to check the security scenario it was shocking to see that there was no security check anywhere at any point in the stadium.
At the entry gate, no one was checking for the I cards. As a result it was looking like a thoroughfare for all.
While intacting with the parents who were accomaning their children, one of the mother Parul said, "my two children come here, one plays basket ball and other plays skating. I have never seen any one checking the entrants. There are no entry registers to register the names of people that enter Stadium".
Another mother said, " my child comes here to play basket ball. Any one can come here, park vehicle any where and move anywhere indoor as well outdoor. Jammu is already on high alert. But unfortunately no one checks here".
One of the Skating Trainer said, “In skating approximately 200 children come to take training and in all there are around 2500 players who come everyday. But unfortunately there is no security check. Only during functions when VIPs come, we see security personnel. Students come here at 4 pm and till 10 pm they practice. There should be security personnel deployed as Jammu has already faced grenade attacks in past".
Father of 6 year old said, “my son is coming here from last 2 years and I have seen security only when VIPs come, and that time we are not allowed". "Stadium boundary wall is at banks of Tawi and many times drug addicts have been caught here, last year there was incident of gun snatching also. But still no one pays any heed. Cards should be issued and only those card holders should be allowed to enter stadium", he further added.
The authorities should be vigilant enough to take precautions before any untoward incident occurs. The security should not be compromised and proper I Cards should be issued so that any unauthorized person could not enter the stadium Gate.
