Additional solicitor general Satya Pal Jain told the high court that the state government's request for the installation of hi-tech jammers at various jails in Punjab, the Ministry of Home Affairs conveyed in a letter on December 10, had been granted prior approval in August and September, and no separate approval was required.
The Punjab government can proceed further with purchasing these jammers from the manufacturer and installing them in jails, Jain told the court.
V-Kavach jammers can be used for anti-IED, anti-drone, anti-cellular systems, and electronics jamming.
