Panchkula Police set up 12 checkpoints and deployed 10 bike-mounted response units across the city as part of heightened security measures, officials said.
The stepped-up deployment comes amid the wider wave of protests and public gatherings linked to the Cockroach Janta Party’s demonstrations that have spread to several cities in recent days. The bike response units are intended to allow officers to move quickly through congested areas in the event of unrest.
Police said the checkpoints would remain in place as part of ongoing precautionary measures, though they did not specify a timeline for when the heightened security posture would be scaled back.
The additional checkpoints and mobile units reflect a broader pattern of stepped-up policing seen across several cities in recent days as authorities brace for further demonstrations linked to the ongoing protest movement.
