The security was intensified near the BJP Delhi office and the party headquarters at the Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg in central Delhi.
The development comes even as the capital was put on high alert following intelligence inputs indicating a possible terror threat, PTI reported.
This prompted the Delhi Police and other security agencies to intensify vigil across several sensitive locations, the news agency cited sources as saying.
The security was intensified at the BJP headquarters on Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Marg and nearby government establishments. The police put up additional deployment of armed personnel, barricading and intensified vehicle checks.
Bomb disposal squads, sniffer dog units and quick reaction teams, including the Delhi Fire Service, have also been asked to stay alert, PTI said.
"Police have been directed to maintain strict vigil on suspicious movements, unattended objects and vehicles parked in sensitive zones," the sources cited above said.
