Over 20,000 security personnel have been deployed across New Delhi, with Connaught Place divided into 20 sectors commanded by senior IPS officers conducting continuous flag marches. Key transport hubs, borders, metro stations, and railway stations are under strict surveillance, and individuals entering the area are being frisked.
