Kerala has become a key area of focus in India’s national security strategy, especially given its proximity to international borders and maritime routes. To counter potential terrorist activities, the Kerala Police have been working closely with national security agencies such as the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Intelligence Bureau (IB). The collaboration has led to the sharing of real-time intelligence and the deployment of specialized units to detect and prevent threats before they materialize.
Through joint operations, Kerala Police have been successful in thwarting several terrorist plots. Surveillance technologies such as facial recognition and advanced analytics are being utilized to monitor individuals with suspicious connections to terror groups. The police also conduct regular counter-terrorism drills to ensure that personnel are well-prepared to handle any threat. These operations often extend to coastal and border areas, where there is a higher chance of infiltration.
