144 Section in Hyderabad: DGP Provides Clarification
The Hyderabad Police recently imposed Section 144 in the city, restricting gatherings as a preventive measure. DGP CV Anand addressed the public to clarify the purpose behind this order, explaining that it was not intended to impact Diwali festivities.
Instead, he noted that intelligence reports indicate certain groups are planning agitations, including surprise raids on government offices, the Chief Minister’s residence, and other key locations. This measure aims to provide legal support to the police in preemptively detaining individuals involved in such activities.
“This is not a curfew, as some are misrepresenting it. Please don’t worry,” the DGP tweeted, assuring citizens of Hyderabad.
