Following the Centre's announcement of the implementation of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 (CAA), heightened security measures have been observed across various parts of North India, including Delhi, Noida, and Lucknow. North East Delhi Police Deputy Commissioner Joy Tirkey highlighted the police's preparedness in response to the notification, referencing the unpleasant experiences and heavy losses encountered in 2020. Security efforts include flag marches in sensitive areas such as Jama Masjid in Delhi and Gautam Buddh Nagar in Noida, particularly in view of the upcoming festival of Ramazan and the Lok Sabha elections. In addition to the flag marches, the police have been actively engaging in foot patrolling and monitoring to assure the public of their safety. Moreover, recent incidents of violence, including an encounter between Delhi Police and three sharpshooters of the Hashim Baba gang near Gokalpuri Metro Station and a firing incident in Seelampur, have underscored the tense atmosphere. The police have taken strict actions against those spreading misleading information and have made several arrests in connection to the violence. To maintain law and order, 179 PAC and 100 CAPF companies have been deployed, and the RAF has been positioned outside the Jamia Millia Islamia campus.
