NEW DELHI : In a series of precautionary steps amid escalating tensions, India has secured all its military bases and critical assets, government sources confirmed late Thursday night.

At Mundra Port, all planned vessel berthings have been cancelled. Meanwhile, at Kandla Port, authorities have directed all ships to switch off their lights as a security measure.

Shipping movement has been halted at both ports and will remain suspended until daylight as part of enhanced coastal surveillance and maritime security protocols.
