"In case of any emergency or untoward situation, the head of the educational institution is advised to send a message to the system," said a senior Rangers official. He added the message will be received at the central command (Rangers headquarters) and also the cell phones of the zone's company commander, wing commander and the sector commander.
It will facilitate a rapid response. The official stated the system also allows deployment of additional personnel if necessary.
Named 'Rangers School College Protection System', so far 3,000 schools have been registered with the system. Other schools can also apply for induction into the system. "In future, we will add hospitals, shopping malls and media houses into the system," said the Rangers official.
Security concerns have forced closure of many schools in Karachi and other parts of Pakistan after an attack on Bacha Khan University (BKU) earlier this year.
