The Jammu and Kashmir government has officially dismissed recent social media reports claiming explosions in Udhampur and drone activity over the region as false and intended to create panic. The Ministry of Defence and local authorities have confirmed that there have been no such incidents. They have urged the public to disregard these baseless rumors and to report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

This clarification comes amid heightened tensions following Operation Sindoor, a military operation launched by India on May 7. While the operation targeted certain sites in Pakistan, the situation in Jammu and Kashmir has remained largely peaceful, with no confirmed hostilities between Indian and Pakistani forces in recent days.

Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and have urged the public to stay vigilant and avoid spreading unverified information that could cause unnecessary alarm.
