Faridabad – Police Commissioner Satender Kumar Gupta has issued necessary directions to strengthen security arrangements for Independence Day. He has instructed all Deputy Commissioners of Police to coordinate with police in neighboring states and districts to ensure proper exchange of information. Special checking is to be conducted in view of security concerns at tenants’ residences, domestic helpers, metro stations, bus stands, cyber cafes, hotels/dhabas, dharamshalas, inns, parking areas, and busy markets or other crowded places in their respective jurisdictions.

The police spokesperson informed that for security purposes, zone-wise teams of security agents, IB, and CID personnel have been formed. These teams are conducting zone- and station-wise checks. The appointed teams are inspecting malls, cinema halls, railway stations, bus stands, metro stations, markets, hotels, guest houses, Oyo properties, and dharamshalas. Police teams are also checking SIM card vendors and cyber cafes. All station in-charges are conducting inspections in their areas, including metro stations, markets, malls, crowded places, parks, and similar public areas.

The police appeal to the public that if they notice any suspicious person staying at a bus stand, railway station, market, hotel/dhaba, dharamshala, or guest house, they should immediately inform the nearest police station/outpost or police control room.
