Additional Inspector General of Police (Operations) Punjab Inam Ghani has said that over 39,255 police officials and volunteers will perform security duty during Yum-e-Ali across Punjab. "Of them, 359 are gazetted officers, 611 inspectors, 1543 sub-inspectors, 2171 ASIs, 2618 head constables, 18258 constables, 5222 police volunteers, 1923 special police officials, 4887 male volunteers whereas 1663 women volunteers are also included," the AIG said while briefing Punjab IGP Amjad Javed Saleemi during a video-link conference of the Regional Police Officers (RPOs) and District Police Officers (DPOs) held at the Central Police Office (CPO) on Friday.
According to AIG Inam, 280 walkthrough gates, 3906 metal detectors and 1364 CCTV cameras for the monitoring of processions and 'Majalis' will be installed. The IGP was informed that a four-layered security will be provided to the mourning processions and Majalis on the day of Yum-e-Ali falling on Monday.
Along with the security of Yum-e-Ali, the security arrangements for last Friday of Ramazan should also be considered positively besides enhancing the surveillance of markets, banks, Ramazan bazaars, shrines and shopping centers, the IGP instructed. He said senior officers should take steps under their supervision to ensure protection of lives and properties of people. The process of surprise visits should be continued and officials deployed in field should be briefed in detail about the sensitivity of their duties so that they may perform their duties diligently, he added.
The IG said the process of surveillance and physical checking at inter-provincial and inter-districts check posts should be tightened so that anti-social elements could be taken to task. "Additional force will be deputed on all important highways and roads of the province to control the issues of traffic management, especially during Iftar timing in the last Ashra of the holy month," he continued.
He advised the senior police officers to immediately report to the Operation Wing of the CPO if any district experienced shortage of human resources for security arrangements. The DPOs and RPOs should personally carve out the security plan of their respective areas in accordance with the already given SOPs. "No mourners should be allowed to enter into procession before proper checking by walkthrough gates and metal detectors whereas snipers should be deployed over the rooftops of the buildings falling under the route of the processions. Commandoes in plain clothes should also be deployed in field," directed the provincial police chief.
