Strict security vigil being maintained in Delhi today; Central forces kept in reserve: Police

New Delhi, Aug 26: The situation in the capital was being kept under close watch today after yesterday’s incidents of arson in the city, a fallout of the violence in neighbouring Haryana by followers of Dera Sacha Sauda chief Ram Rahim’s conviction in a rape case. "We are closely monitoring the situation in the capital, but no untoward incident has happened since yesterday’s incidents,’’ Delhi Police Spokesperson Madhur Verma told UNI. He said police was fully alert to any designs by miscreants to take law and order in their hands, and section 144 CrPC that had been imposed in 11 out of 13 districts of the capital continued. Mr Verma said the Central para military forces had also been kept in reserve for deployment if needed. Yesterday, two Delhi Transport Corporation buses were set on fire in Jyoti Nagar near Loni roundabout, and Jahangirpuri by miscreants, and attempts were made to torch four more buses but the police foiled the attempt. Besides, two empty bogies of a train were torched at Anand Vihar Railway Station. UNI
