ACP (Law and order) Amit Singh on Thursday reviewed the arrangements at a meeting of police officials and gave necessary instructions to them to ensure proper security throughout the Gair.

The police have set up several watch towers along the Gair route to keep a watch and to take immediate action in case of any public nuisance in the area.
