In view of the shrine’s security being taken over by the state police, a post of Superintendent of Police has been created to head the security team, he said, adding that a decision in this regard was taken at the cabinet meeting.
In the report, a proposal to install close circuit cameras (CCTVs) outside and around the temple complex to monitor the premises has been given, police sources said. Special sensors would be installed within the radius of the cellars where the treasure was found, they said.
