Through an official circular, the police commissioner directed the personnel to keep an eye on religious fundamental organisations such as Hindu Vahini, Bajrang Dal, RSS, Sri Rama Yuva Sena, Shiv Sena, PFI, TTSI, DJs after some organisations have called for celebrations and the others for protests.
