The police officials especially at the Necklace road will be conducting patrolling and keep a watch on the movement of people on the stretch. Policemen in mufti will also be on the field to identify and nab trouble mongers.

The Bajrang Dal on Saturday had staged a demonstration in the city against the practice of celebrating Valentine’s Day and had demanded the people not imitate the western culture.

A couple of years ago, a group opposing the celebrations ransacked a mall at Gachibowli and cases were booked against them by the police.
