Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee assured devotees at the Alexander Village mandir that they will have the police’s full support during Diwali celebrations today.

According to a Government Information Agency (GINA) press release, the minister told the meeting on Sunday that police will be posted at different locations in the village to deter persons who may try to disrupt the celebrations.
