With security having become a matter of high priority across the globe, nations must put their heads together and think of new and more sophisticated means to fight terror. On Thursday, a delegation of specialists from the UK was in the city to talk about the methods the country uses to tackle terrorism. They spoke at length on the way in which they ensured a smooth run at the London Olympics last year.

The 15-member delegation from the United Kingdom Security Trade and Investment Security Mission (UKTI-DSO) arrived here for a programme organised jointly by Mumbai First and the British High Commission. Mumbai First is an organisation comprising private players who work with the government to find effective solutions to common problems in the city.
