In view of the rising number of pilgrims and visitors, the Haridwar district administration has enhanced crowd management and safety measures at prominent Ganga ghats. Additional police personnel, volunteers, and surveillance systems have been deployed to ensure smooth movement and prevent overcrowding.
Officials said that special attention is being given to peak bathing hours, religious events, and weekends when footfall increases significantly. Temporary barricades, clear signage, and public announcement systems have been installed to guide devotees and manage queues effectively. Emergency response teams and medical facilities have also been placed on standby.
Local residents and pilgrims have welcomed the move, stating that improved management helps maintain order and enhances safety. The administration has appealed to visitors to follow guidelines and cooperate with authorities. Strengthened arrangements are expected to ensure a safe and orderly experience while preserving the spiritual atmosphere of Haridwar’s sacred ghats.
