NEW DELHI: Around 1,600 Delhi Police personnel will keep tight vigil at Ramlila Ground on Saturday where Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal will be sworn in as seventh chief minister of the national capital.
The security wing will secure the stage where Delhi lieutenant governor Najeeb Jung will administer the oath of office and secrecy to Kejriwal and six other ministers, only the second time it is being done at a public function.
In 1996, BJP leader Sahib Singh Verma had taken oath at a ceremony in Chhatrasal Stadium.
In order to ensure foolproof security, different units of Delhi Police have been entrusted with separate jobs.
A central control room has been set up at the venue for real-time monitoring and to ensure proper coordination among security personnel. Senior Delhi police officials will be present in the control room to supervise the entire event.(PTI)
