The Centre today advised all states to beef up security and prevent violence during the Bharat Bandh called by some groups tomorrow reportedly against caste-based reservations in jobs and education, an official said.
The Ministry of Home Affairs also said the districts magistrates and SPs will be personally held responsible for any violence in their area of jurisdiction.
The missive came a week after a similar protest saw massive violence in different parts of the country leading to the death of about a dozen people.
An official of the MHA said the ministry has issued an advisory to all states to take necessary precautionary measures in view of the calls on social media for Bharat Bandh on April 10 by some groups.
"The MHA has advised the states to beef up security and make appropriate arrangements to prevent any untoward incident, including issue of prohibitory orders, if necessary," the official said.
The states have been asked to intensify patrolling in all sensitive locations so as to prevent any loss of life or damage to property.
