The Delhi Police has beefed up security in the national capital ahead of the planned protest announced by the Aam Aadmi Party on Sunday. Heavy deployment of police personnel and multi-layer barricading have already been put in place on roads leading to the BJP headquarters, ITO, and in front of the ED office, where AAP members are expected to gather to protest against the arrest of chief minister Kejriwal. Paramilitary personnel have also been stationed to ensure law and order.
“We got information that workers and leaders of AAP will hold protest. To ensure law and order situation, we have stepped up security in the national capital. We will ensure deployment of paramilitary forces along with Delhi Police personnel,” sources quoted a police officer.
“Senior officers will continue to monitor the entire situation in their districts. Directions have been issued to the SHOs to keep a strict vigil in their area and to inform their senior officers immediately, if they get to know about any protest,” the police officer said.
