Prashant Kumar, Special DG, Law and Order, also issued an advisory for the general public on the occasion, urging them to keep patience and refrain from spreading, or paying attention to any kind of rumour.
The mock drill is being conducted amid fear of a Covid surge in the country in the wake of a spurt of Covid cases reported in China and other countries.
Cordon and Search Operation (CASO) were conducted in all 28 police districts of the state in a bid to "infuse fear among the anti-social elements and instill a sense of safety and security among the common people".
The exercise was conducted to assess the overall preparedness and response measures taken at critical sites to deal with any untoward incident on both the routes of Shri Amarnath Ji Yatra from Sonamarg to Holy Cave and Pahalgam to Chandanwari route.
An official said such mock exercises tend to emulate real-time threats in an airport that might pose danger to both passengers and aircraft.
The drill was a part of Annual Safety Programmes to ensure the system adequacy and emergency preparedness.
