Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis appealed to citizens on Friday, asking them not to panic or change their routine following reports that schoolchildren spotted the movements of few suspected people in Uran.

However, we are not taking any chances and the entire machinery is working as a precautionary measure”, he said.
