Referring to clashes amongst small groups which was causing disquiet and issues to law and order, Anand urged the community elders not to react on issues that may impact the peace in the city and asked them to be patient. He also appraised them on the security measures and traffic diversion arrangements being made and the force deployment.

“Traffic diversion plan, parking spaces will be notified and senior officers from traffic wing will be stationed to closely monitor the processions. There should be no diversion of the procession from the pre-determined route,” he said.

In a strict warning to the trouble makers, the Commissioner said that misuse of social media platforms to instigate or hurt the sentiments of others will invite strict action. The organisers will be held responsible if anything goes wrong.
