More than 15,000 Mumbai police personnel have deployed on duty at the venues of Dussehra rallies of the Thackeray and Shinde factions of Shiv Sena. Other events in the city include Goddess Durga idol immersion and an ICC cricket World Cup match.
Considering that a large number of people come out on streets during the immersion processions, police are being deployed at all prominent places, the official said.
As many as 12,449 lower-rank personnel, 2,496 officers, 45 Assistant Commissioners of Police, 16 Deputy Commissioners and half a dozen Additional Commissioners of the city force are being deployed across the financial capital, he said.
Besides the Mumbai cops, 33 State Reserve Police Force (SRPF) platoons (around 100 each), Quick Response Teams and Home Guards are being mobilised for duty for the multiple events in the metropolis, the official added.
