Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has called for heightened vigilance among police and administration throughout the festive season, urging constant alertness from Navratri to Chhath. During a video conference with police superintendents, he instructed them to analyze past incidents and implement measures to ensure safety and peace. The CM emphasized the importance of community engagement, directing communication with Durga Puja committees within two days to maintain a harmonious environment.

Key directives include ensuring that pandal construction does not disrupt traffic, the height of idols remains within limits, and no actions offend public sentiments. Idol immersion routes should be predetermined, and fire safety measures must be in place. Increased police presence in temples and public areas is crucial, particularly at sites like Maa Vindhyavasini Dham and Vishalakshi Temple, where large crowds are expected.
