Traffic Restrictions and Safety Measures Enforced During Kanwar Yatra Pilgrimage
Authorities have implemented traffic restrictions and safety measures during the ongoing Kanwar Yatra and holy month of Sawan. Gurugram Police diverted heavy vehicles to alternate expressways from August 9-11 to ease congestion, while Ghaziabad restricted certain expressway stretches for Dak Kanwariyas. The SDRF rescued 18 devotees from strong Ganga river currents in Haridwar, urging pilgrims to use designated safe ghats. These coordinated efforts aim to ensure the safety and smooth movement of Kanwariyas during the pilgrimage period.
