In view of the anticipated turnout for the 'Tiranga Vijay Rally' jointly to be held by Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) at Shivaji Park on Sunday at 10 am, the Mumbai Police have made extensive security preparations along the route and at key congregation points to ensure law and order and facilitate smooth movement of the crowd.

A comprehensive bandobast will be in place from the early hours of Sunday. Senior police officers will oversee security arrangements, while personnel from local police stations and the traffic police will be stationed at strategic junctions along the route. Barricading at key locations, regulation of pedestrian movement, and close monitoring through the city’s surveillance network will also form part of the security plan. Police officials said the fact that the rally is being held on a Sunday is likely to ease traffic management, as office-hour vehicular movement is expected to be significantly lower.
