Panjim: Though the Christmas celebration will be subdued in churches, the police are not taking anything lightly and have made elaborate arrangements not only to protect people but also to assist the church volunteers.
DySP for Salcete Sahil Sarangal informed that police will be present at most of the churches in Salcete to ensure that there is no crowding and social distancing is maintained.
Besides, he said police will also make sure that the faithful wear the masks and help the Church volunteers in their tasks.
Police patrolled the entire taluka on December 24 night and nakabandis were arranged at some places, which monitored the movement during the night.
