Early in the morning i left for Nankana Sahib to receive Sikh Yatris. I reached there and went to the main Gurdwara with DSP City Nankana Mr. Umer. The Sikh Yatris were seated in around 24 buses and the convoy left for Sacha Sauda Sheikhupura. Police arrangements were on high alert given the security situation. The buses were in shabby condition which the rising temperature during the day proved to be testing for the visitors as majority of them were old men and women.
A discussion with the Yatris revealed that youth want to visit Pakistan, but Government of India usually does not approve the visa of Youth. Also, while visiting other countries like USA, those who have visited Pakistan are questioned and sometimes denied visas. However, one thing is for sure that Sikh Yatris were very satisfied with the security arrangement and lot of them expressed their gratitude to the Police men on duty for ensuring their security. The yatris spent the day in the Gurdwara & in the afternoon we safely handed them over to the Nankana Police at Chandarkot.
Police made utmost efforts and were successful with in their mission of safe and comfortable journey of the Yatris. The TMA and other line department who were tasked with removal of garbage and piles of debris in the vicinity of the area, did not bother to to clean even an inch of it. I increasing felt that alongwith security duty, almost every other responsibility is being shifted to Police. The need of the hour is that every department must do its duties and extend help to other in time of need.
In the latter part of the day, sat with Addl SP sb and following came under discussion.
1. Debriefing on the security arrangement of the Sacha Sauda Besakhi event.
2. Overview of the crime diary of the previous day
3. Promotion of Constables
4. Allotment of quarters to families and issues related to it.
