Delhi News: Days before the 78th Independence Day celebrations on August 15, Delhi Police on Thursday heightened the security arrangements across the national capital and put up posters of various terrorists linked with Al Qaeda and Khalistan in the city. Cops also encouraged the Delhites to assist them in catching the terrorists. 


The Delhi police have also said that those coming forward with any information regarding the terrorists will be rewarded "suitably". The names of informants will, however, be concealed, according to a report by news agency ANI.
