Maharashtra CM reviews security arrangements at Mantralaya

Maharashtra Chief Minister (CM) Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday took a review of the security arrangements at the Mantralaya, the state secretariat in south Mumbai, with senior officials of the home department and the police force, reported news agency PTI.

The officials stated that Fadnavis reviewed the security measures at the Mantralaya along with Deputy CM Eknath Shinde during a meeting.

Maharashtra top officers, including Chief Secretary Sujata Saunik, Additional Chief Secretary (Home) IS Chahal, Director General of Police (DGP) Rashmi Shukla, Mumbai Police Commissioner Vivek Phansalkar, and Special Commissioner of Police Deven Bharti attended the meeting, stated PTI.

Issues concerning other aspects of security were also discussed during the meeting, the officials said. 

A day earlier, Fadnavis had visited Gadchiroli and inaugurated several developmental works there. He had stated on Wednesday that the people of Gadchiroli support India and its Constitution, not Naxals, as the region has undergone significant transformation through progress. He also further attributed this shift to the police's efforts against Naxalites and the cooperation of local villagers.
