New Delhi: Three districts in northeast Delhi were put on high alert on Tuesday after the tension prevailing there since the last three days intensified.

A top official from Delhi Police Headquarters told IANS: “Since section 144 imposed in northeast Delhi failed to control the situation, we have decided to put three districts on high alert. Security has been beefed up in northeast as well as east Delhi and Shahdara district.”

A Delhi police DCP said now the reserve police force in the police stations is also there to support us alongwith the paramilitary forces. However, around 50 armed policemen are still in the police stations so that the miscreants don’t target the police stations.
