India-Pakistan conflict: New Delhi on High Alert! PAF jet shot down by Indian air defence system
Amid the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, aftermath of Operation Sindoor, a high alert was sounded in the national capital. Security has been reinforced with additional forces, and police are actively monitoring law and order. 1. The national capital is currently on high alert. Earlier on Thursday, visitors at India Gate, the iconic war memorial, were asked to leave and evacuate the area, PTI reported. "This is a standard practice to keep the C Hexagon traffic jam-free. There is nothing new in it. Anyone can come tomorrow and see it," New Delhi Deputy Commissioner Devesh Mahala said. "Police will stay alert and will keep active. Night vigil has been intensified. We will deploy extra force in every sensitive area," a police officer said. Delhi Police checking vehicles and details of drivers on Mathura Road in New Delhi on Thursday.

Police sources told PTI that special commissioners of all zones are holding meetings with the deputy commissioners of all 15 districts. "All DCPs are actively monitoring law and order in their areas. They have already briefed their officers like ACPs and SHOs. DCPs are personally monitoring their area and Delhi Police is ready to deal with any kind of situation," a source told PTI. 3. Pakistan on Friday rejected reports in the Indian media that it had attacked multiple places in India, saying such claims are "entirely unfounded" and part of a 'reckless propaganda campaign'. Such actions only further endanger regional peace, the Foreign Office said in a midnight statement. 4. Meanwhile, Amritsar DPRO advised all citizens to stay indoors and away from the windows and keep lights turned off and the window curtains drawn. 'There is no need to panic, a siren will blow now and we will pass the message again once it is clear. Our armed forces are on the job, and we need to support them by staying indoors. There is no need to panic,' Amritsar DPRO said.

The engagement involved extensive use of L-70 guns, Zu-23mm, Schilka systems, and other advanced counter-UAS equipment, demonstrating the Army's robust capability to counter aerial threats,' Sources told ANI. 7. Amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, the US has said it is not going to get involved in a war that's 'fundamentally none of our business'. While the US cannot control India and Pakistan, it can encourage the two nuclear-armed neighbours to de-escalate, Vice President J D Vance said in a TV interview on Thursday, PTI reported. 8. A Pakistani Air Force jet was shot down by Indian air defence systems in the Pathankot sector of Punjab, multiple sources informed ANI on Friday.
