Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], May 9 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav chaired a high-level meeting regarding the state’s security arrangements at Samatva Bhavan (Chief Minister’s residence), in Bhopal on Friday, saying citizen security is the top priority of the state government.

The Chief Minister emphasised that strict control should be imposed on any anti-national propaganda. Citizens should be encouraged and informed not to pay attention to rumors. Special attention should be given to the security all around important central and state government establishments. All disaster management measures and necessities such as health and fire services should be further strengthened.
Additionally, CM Yadav reviewed the current state of the state’s security arrangements, the condition of citizen facilities, and departmental coordination. He gave instructions to further improve mutual coordination among officers. He also said that all departments should remain ready and alert for any kind of emergency situation. He stated that until the situation becomes normal, officials and field staff of all departments related to smooth supply of citizen facilities should not go on leave.
