Safety first for PCA
Foolproof security arrangements would be in place for a smooth conduct of two league matches and a semifinal tie of the World Cup to be played at Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) stadium here next month.
"As ICC is holding the World Cup, they have hired a retired DGP rank officer to draw up overall security plan for all the eight centres in India including the PCA. Our Association is also extending all cooperation to the ICC and local police in ensuring foolproof security for the three matches," PCA Secretary, M P Pandove told reporters here.
He said the ICC consulted with the Union Home Ministry to ensure foolproof security at the venues.
"The retired DGP who has also handled the Commonwealth Games security-related issues also had a meeting with top police brass of Chandigarh and Punjab," he informed.
