"We have had discussions with Mumbai Police Commissioner (Javed Ahmed) and are extra alert on places where required. There is tight vigil in places where there is a lot of population, places of religious worship, important installations like BARC, MSEB locations, corporate company houses, Kendriya Vidyalaya Airforce Station, Ojhar and defence installations in and outside Mumbai," Maharashtra Additional Chief Secretary (Home) K P Bakshi told PTI.
