Preparation for confrontation with pak.

My son and I were on a long ride back from our village. He wouldn’t stop asking questions—nonstop chatter that ruined the peace of the journey. So, I gave him a "mission": count the distance between stations using his steps. He took it seriously. I sat back, smiled, and finally enjoyed the silence. I fooled him—and it was glorius.
Did you find any correlation? This govt. involved the whole country in stupid things. This particular instance might not be related with above story but sentiment is same.

Now Chat GPT is a danger to national security. We have entrusted it with the additional responsibility of communicating about defence drills.

During the drill, you may experience temporary blackouts, suspension of mobile signals, or traffic diversions. Authorities may also conduct evacuation exercises or hold public announcements. In some areas, police and paramilitary forces may simulate a war-like emergency.

Any chance we get alerts on mobile (not using SMS or so) using the emergency system, like how in US one gets amber alert in area on child kidnapping or how I guess Hawaii got a false alert on approaching ICBM.
