Summary:
Besides deployment of static police force at the sensitive points, patrolling too has been intensified in vulnerable areas ahead of Muharram. A few years back, the then DIG Bachchu Singh Meena made an attempt to update the register and make it relevant in all the five districts of Magadh police range. The licence holders would be personally accountable for the conduct of the processionists, said the SSP. Two kinds of licences to take out Muharram processions have been issued. Those served notices under Section 107 have to furnish personal bond of good conduct..
