The Home Ministry asked states and Union Territories, particularly Maharashtra and Delhi, to deploy additional forces in markets, religious and other public places as militants might try to strike. The Centre has also asked authorities to install a sizeable number of CCTV cameras, metal detectors and other electronics gadgets in crowded places to monitor movement of people and for a thorough check up of people.
