Hyderabad Police step up security for Ganesh festivities
Hyderabad police have heightened security measures for upcoming Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations following the integration of the Shamshabad and Rajendranagar police zones into the city commissionerate. The expanded jurisdiction now includes areas from Balapur to Khairatabad, placing these neighborhoods under city police control during the festivities, officials said. The move aims to improve crowd management, prevent incidents and ensure smooth conduct of religious processions.
