Prohibitory orders promulgated in Jaisalmer district

Prohibitory orders under section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code have been promulgated near the international border in Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan, the district collector said on Friday.

Besides this, night curfew would be in force in towns along the Indo-Pak border, Collector Kuldeep Ranka said in a statement.

The use of loudspeakers at public places has also been banned under the new orders, he said.

For family functions, including marriages and parties, a special permission would have to be taken from the district administration, he said.

Meanwhile, security was beefed up at an airbase in the state after intelligence reports said some explosives were hidden near it, police sources said.

A man, who was taking down numbers of military trucks on a piece of paper, was picked up from Jaisalmer on Thursday, they said, adding, a photo of an armed terrorist was also recovered from his possession.
