On May 7, Amritsar conducted a citywide blackout drill as part of a civil defence preparedness exercise. According to ASI Jagtar Singh, the half-hour blackout from 10:30 PM to 11 PM was carried out to simulate wartime conditions, ensuring no lights were visible to prevent enemy detection. The drill was in line with directives aiming at enhancing urban readiness during a high-threat scenario.
