The area around the Sher-e-Kashmir park here has been put under a multi-layer security blanket ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s election rally scheduled for Wednesday, a senior police official said.
This will be Modi’s first rally for BJP candidates in Kashmir before the assembly elections in the Union territory later this month.
“We have made a multi-tier security arrangement for the VVIP visit as per the Standard Operating Procedure laid down for such events,” Inspector General of Police (IGP) V K Birdi said on Tuesday.
