Lahore DIG Operations Faisal Kamran has directed police to strengthen security outside girls’ colleges and universities, warning that the unnecessary gathering of boys near these institutions will not be tolerated.
The instructions were issued during an anti-crime meeting of the Model Town Division, where officers reviewed measures to protect female students, control street crime and improve security ahead of upcoming cricket matches.
Kamran directed police personnel to maintain effective security around educational institutions and ensure that registered cases involving women and children are addressed on a priority basis.

Lahore Police Directed to Increase Patrolling
The DIG ordered an increase in police patrolling and called for an effective strategy to curb street crime and theft across the city.
He also directed officers to take immediate action against proclaimed offenders and habitual criminals. Search-and-sweep operations were ordered around private hotels, major stadiums and important routes as part of the security measures.
The instructions place particular emphasis on crime prevention and the protection of students and other members of the public.
Security Plan for Upcoming Cricket Matches
The meeting also reviewed arrangements for upcoming cricket matches in Lahore.
Kamran directed police officers to complete security and logistical preparations before the matches. He instructed officials to establish security cordons around team hotels, stadiums and designated travel routes to protect players and support the safe movement of teams.
Advance planning is intended to help police coordinate security at venues and along routes used by visiting teams.
Priority for Cases Involving Women and Children
Kamran also instructed officers to prioritise registered cases involving women and children, stressing the need for timely action.
