“The good people of the state are advised to go about their lawful businesses without any apprehension and cooperate with security personnel deployed for these special assignments to bring to fore the sole aim of protection of lives and property.
“I also urge members of the public to be law abiding, orderly and vigilant before, during and after the Yuletide.
