This was decided at a high-level meeting, which was chaired by SP Security Rashid Hidayat at Police Lines in Qila Gujjar Singh.
It was agreed at the meeting that foolproof security arrangements be made in view of threats to the lives of the Chinese nationals and the recent terror attacks targeting people from the neighbouring country in Karachi.
