Chandigarh, June 7

The Punjab Police on Tuesday restored security of all 424 VIPs.

All personnel withdrawn from the security will join back by today evening with the designated protectees.

Police sources said the security personnel were earlier ordered to report back to the security duty after the Ghalughara week functions culminate on June 6.

The Punjab and Haryana High Court had also directed Punjab government to restore security of all. The withdrawal/pruning of security had become a big issue due to the sensational killing of singer Sidhu Moosewala just a day after his security cover was pruned to two guards from four earlier.

Akal Takht officiating Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh, whose security cover was also pruned, had also criticised the government.
