Pillai held the meeting with Delhi police commissioner YS Dadwal, NSG director general RK Medhekar, top police officials, Games venue commanders and district police heads at the police headquarters.
A "complete review" of the security preparedness for the Commonwealth Games was held here this evening by Union home secretary GK Pillai who expressed satisfaction at the arrangements made for the sporting event.
Pillai held the meeting with Delhi police commissioner YS Dadwal, NSG director general RK Medhekar, top police officials, Games venue commanders and district police heads at the police headquarters here.
The Games will begin in the capital next Sunday.
"We had a complete review of security arrangements, looking at various issues and anticipating what type of threats could arise. We are trying to make sure that we are fully prepared to meet any eventuality," Pillai told reporters after the 90-minute meeting.
He said the review meet was held to tell the officials to be alert as it is a major task for Delhi police to ensure security "not just for athletes and Games venues but for the entire city itself".
"The aim of the review was to ensure that the whole of Delhi is safe and not just the Games venues which of course has received special attention," the top official said.
Asked whether he was satisfied with the security arrangements, Pillai answered in the affirmative and said that if there was more time, more foolproof arrangements could have been made.
"I think, I am quite satisfied (with the arrangements)," he said.
Pillai, who also visited the integrated C4i Control Room, said all the venues except one were connected to the facility and every movement can be monitored from the police headquarters. All the venues have individual control rooms.
There are meetings of the International Security Liaison Group on a daily basis, he said adding that the suggestions given by delegates of the liaison group has helped them in meeting the requirements.
Asked about the suggestion by some participating countries that the vehicles of ministers should be checked, he said such an issue was not raised in the liaison meetings or in any other meetings.
"They are quite happy with our arrangements. Our cabinet ministers are precious to us as anybody else is," he said.
