New agency, ANI tweeted a video in which a man was seen pulling out iron nails. Deepak Yadav, DCP (East), said that the nails fixed over that point are being repositioned because that was a spot where people wouldn't venture earlier. But now that some people are around that point, we fear that the nails could be dangerous for them. So, just to ensure their safety, we are removing them from there and fixing them elsewhere.
