Guarding Mumbai's Most Popular Ganpati, Lalbaugcha Raja

  • 5 years ago
Border Security Force personnel, who were supposed to leave for election duty in Gujarat today, have received instructions from the Union Home Ministry not to leave the city until the last and most popular idol, Lalbaugcha Raja, is safely immersed in the sea.

Lending credence to reports of intelligence inputs warning of possible terror strikes in the city during the visarjan today, the Union home ministry has ordered the 200-odd BSF personnel in the city, who were supposed to leave for their home posting of Gujarat this morning, to stay on till September 10.
The move, according to highly placed sources, is designed to ensure that the BSF jawans stay with the Ganpati idols, especially Lalbaugcha Raja, till they are immersed, so that they can ensure the safety of the thousands of devotees that accompany them. The heavily equipped jawans will also be manning various points along the immersion route to neutralise possible threats.
