Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath issued a clear warning that any attempt to disrupt the Kanwar Yatra or compromise its sanctity will be dealt with strictly. Speaking at a press conference in Meerut, CM Yogi said that miscreants attempting to defame this holy journey under the guise of the Kanwar Yatra, especially through social media, will be identified and strict action taken against them.
The Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath underscored that while most devotees uphold the sanctity of the Yatra, some anti-social elements are conspiring to malign it. He said that it is the responsibility of every Kanwar Sangh and every Shiv bhakt to expose such elements and immediately inform the authorities. The entire Yatra route is under CCTV surveillance, and once the Yatra concludes, strict action will be taken against those identified. Their posters will also be displayed publicly.
CM Yogi called for cooperation in preserving the sanctity of the Yatra. He said that this Yatra is a symbol of devotion and harmony. It is our shared responsibility to keep this divine journey free from violence and disorder.
Highlighting the extensive preparations made for the smooth conduct of the Yatra, CM Yogi said that the government, along with the administration, voluntary organizations, and religious institutions, has ensured comprehensive arrangements for the comfort and safety of the devotees.
