The IG attended a mock drill of security forces from Goudia Mutt to Saradhabali and made a minute check of deployment of security personnel at strategic points of the town.
Since Kovind will attend a function at Goudia Mutt, the district collector Samarth Verma verified the security arrangements there with the mutt officials and police officers.
