Gujarat police have made elaborate security arrangements ahead of the state-level Independence Day celebrations in Kutch district.
"We have enhanced patrolling and increased police presence. Elaborate security arrangements have been made in Kutch district where the state-level Independence Day celebrations will take place," a senior state police official told PTI.
"Two Superintendent of Police (SP) rank officers, 13 Deputy SP rank officers, 150 Police Inspectors (PIs) and Police Sub Inspectors (PSIs), 500 constables and head constables and one company of SRP (comprising at least 100 jawans) will monitor state-level Independence Day celebrations," the official said.
Security has also been beefed up in other districts where Cabinet ministers and ministers of state will lead the celebrations.
Security has also been stepped up in all coastal districts of the state. Last Saturday, there was an input that 13 alleged terrorists were suspected to have entered the district via sea-route.
