Special Security Arrangements During Mahakumbh <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under this initiative, Indian Railways has launched the \u2018Ticket Aapke Dwar\u2019 facility in view of making railway tickets more accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While talking on this subject, the Gorakhpur Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) Pankaj Kumar Singh said,  \u201cRailway has made many special arrangements, like the provision for a mobile UTS (Unreserved Ticketing System) so that devotees can access the ticket counter wherever they are in Mahakumbh\u2026 The railway commercial staff will have a mobile UTS, in which a printer will be connected to their phone\u2026 This is an attempt to manage the crowd.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, over 45 crore devotees are expected for the Mahakumbh which is being celebrated in India after 12 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this Mahakumbh<\/a>, all the devotees will gather at the Sangam, the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers, to take a holy dip believed to absolve sins and grant moksha (liberation), during this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Mahakumbh will be concluded by February 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that the main bathing rituals (Shahi Snan) of this Mahakumbh will take place on January 14 (Makar Sankranti), January 29 (Mauni Amavasya), and February 3 (Basant Panchami).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intensive Checking Campaign & Heightened Surveillance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, Uttar Pradesh Police launched an intensive checking campaign under it to ensure the smooth and secure conduct of Mahakumbh 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This campaign was launched under the leadership of Deputy Inspector General of Police Vaibhav Krishna (IPS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This campaign\u2019s main focus is on heightened surveillance of suspicious individuals and activities at key locations such as Sangam Ghat, pontoon bridges, and major intersections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Deputy Inspector General\u2019s instruction, all stations are in-charges to enhance vigilance in their respective jurisdictions and maintain a proactive approach to security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this special measures were implemented to prevent any untoward incidents and ensure public safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, the teams led by the Additional Superintendent of Police, Circle Officers, and Station In-charges conducted rigorous inspections of suspicious individuals, vehicles, and potential encroachments, under this campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to bolster safety measures, they have deployed additional security reinforcements on pontoon bridges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
