The operation was greenlit during a high-level meeting of the National Action Plan Implementation Review Committee chaired by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi in Islamabad.
According to Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the meeting convened to address various security concerns, including the escalation of dacoity in the Kacha area, known for its challenging terrain and as a hideout for criminal elements.
