Chandigarh (Punjab) [India], December 10 (ANI): Punjab Police has made adequate security arrangements for the India versus South Africa T20 cricket match at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur.

The Police have also issued a traffic advisory.

Around 3,000 police personnel will be deployed for security and crowd management.

DIG Rupnagar Range, Nanak Singh, and Senior Superintendent of Police, SAS Nagar, Harmandeep Singh Hans, will closely supervise the security and traffic arrangements, he added.
