As the vibrant festival of Deepavali dawns, residents of Vellore, Tirupattur, Ranipet, and Tiruvannamalai districts can breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that their safety is paramount. An impressive contingent of over 3,500 police personnel has been strategically deployed across these regions, dedicated to ensuring a peaceful and joyous celebration for all.

Under the vigilant oversight of senior officers, including the Deputy Inspector General of Police (Vellore Range) M.S.

Muthusamy, and the respective Superintendents of Police, this extensive deployment aims to maintain impeccable law and order, prevent any untoward incidents, and ensure smooth traffic flow throughout the festive period. The police force, comprising DSPs, Inspectors, Sub-Inspectors, and a large number of constables, is working tirelessly to make this Deepavali a truly memorable one.

Special attention is being paid to crucial aspects that often arise during such large-scale celebrations.

Beyond enforcement, the police are actively engaging with the community, disseminating crucial safety advisories on handling firecrackers responsibly and remaining vigilant.

This proactive approach underscores their commitment not just to control, but to educate and empower the public for a safer Deepavali. With this robust security blanket in place, the people of these districts are set to enjoy a truly secure and delightful festival of lights.
