A senior Delhi Police officer informed that a team under the supervision of the inspector rank officer has been constituted to visit schools and advise students not to fly kites in the Old Delhi area on Independence Day.
Police also made the students take an oath that they will not fly kites on August 13, 14 and 15 between 6 am to 9 am. They have also assured the Police that they will follow the instructions.
“where they will keep watch and alert senior officers regarding any flying object approaching restricted space.”
In order to join kite flyers in celebrating after the event, Delhi Police has also planned to fly kites from the police station’s terrace.
Police are much concerned regarding kite flying on August 15 as it is the national capital’s unofficial kite-flying day. And a stray kite falling inside the high-security area inside the Red Fort could cause security issues.
