Security plan for Eid finalised

SARGODHA - Po­lice have finalized a security plan for Eid-ul-Fitr congregations and more than 1500 armed police­men will be deployed outside mosques, imambargahs and open places to provide security to the worshippers. Addition­ally, 12 special pickets have been set up across the city, with over 250 officers on duty during Chand Raat to bolster security measures. To tackle the issue of one-wheeling, which poses a risk to public safety, over 100 officers from Sargodha Police and Traffic Police have been de­ployed.

Moreover, a contingent of 50 traffic police officers will be managing the city’s traffic flow to prevent congestion and ensure smooth movement. The security plan extends beyond prayer spaces, with 150 offi­cers stationed at public places, parks, and approximately 100 at important cemeteries. District Police Officer Sargodha Muham­mad Suhaib Ashraf said police­men deployed on security duties should have metal detectors with them to search the participants whereas walk-through gates would be installed on important places.



He said that special direc­tives have been passed on to po­lice officials to ensure patrolling in their respective areas. He said that negligence would not be tolerated at any cost and strict departmental action would be taken against them.
