Mahakumbh Mela: Prayagraj imposes prohibitory orders; check details

New Delhi: Prayagraj will be under prohibitory orders from January 16 to February 28, 2025, to maintain law and order during the Mahakumbh Mela and other overlapping events. The additional commissioner of police announced the decision on Friday, citing potential disruptions by anti-social elements.

The orders, implemented under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, were passed without prior notice due to the urgency of the situation. The period encompasses numerous significant events, including Republic Day, Mauni Amavasya, Basant Panchami, Sant Ravidas Jayanti, Maghi Purnima, Valentine’s Day, Shab-e-Barat, Mahashivratri, and various competitive examinations, reported news agency ANI.

The prohibitory orders aim to “stop all efforts of anti-social elements in the public interest” and ensure peaceful celebrations and safe conduct of examinations.
