“There is no plan so far to enter the Dera headquarters here. Earlier in the day, Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Ram Niwas had said that a search of all 'congregation centres' of Dera Sacha Sauda in Haryana had been ordered. Gen. Punia said that there is a high level of coordination among the police, paramilitary and army personnel on the ground and there is no plan so far to enter the Dera headquarters. Earlier, Sirsa’s sub-divisional magistrate Paramjit Singh Chahal had said the army had not been ordered to enter the campus. We will take strict action against then,” Amitabh Singh Dhillon, the top police officer for Hisar range, said outside the Dera headquarters.
