Tight vigil is being maintained in Tamil Nadu and extra forces have been deployed in sensitive cities like Coimbatore and Tirunelveli ahead of the verdict on the Ayodhya title suit tomorrow, a top police official said.

“The entire State police of about one lakh has been mobilised and we are deploying additional forces at hyper- sensitive places such as Coimbatore, Tirunelveli, Madurai, Kanyakumari, Vellore and Hosur among others,” ADGP (Law and Order) K Radhakrishnan told PTI in Chennai today.

Security had been stepped up at places such as bus-stands and religious places, he said, adding individuals trying to disrupt normalcy tomorrow will be dealt strictly.

“The police and administration have made all arrangements to ensure there are no untoward incidents. Peace will be maintained,” he added.
