Jaipur: In the latest order issued by the Rajasthan police on Wednesday, policemen deputed on VIP duties will have to put their mobile phones in silence mode and deposit them with the police officer in-charge.

The order, issued by DG (Law and Order) M. L. Lathar said that it has come to notice that police personnel deputed at VIP, VVIP programmes, fairs and festivals, dharnas, demonstrations, traffic jams, or on duty at other events are busy chatting on the phone which diverts their attention, affecting their work adversely.
