Mumbai Police to deploy more than 19,000 personnel for immersion of Ganesh idols on Thursday
Mumbai, Sep 27 (PTI) Mumbai Police are deploying more than 19,000 personnel, including officers, to thwart any untoward incident when processions will be taken out to immerse idols of Lord Ganesh on Anant Chaturdashi, the last day of the festival, which falls on September 28.
Similar security arrangements will be in force for Eid-e-Milad, which will be marked by organising processions on Friday.
Various Muslim organisations and religious leaders have decided to take out Eid-e-Milad processions on Friday instead of Thursday in view of Anant Chaturdashi on the appeal made by the police.
