Una, May 21: On the occasion of ‘Anti-Terrorism Day’ today, Deputy Commissioner Jatin Lal administered a pledge against terrorism to government officers and employees within the premises of the Deputy Commissioner's office.

He also administered a pledge to foster peace, social harmony, and understanding among all sections of humanity, and to combat the divisive forces that pose a threat to human values.
