In order to maintain traffic movement, law & order and avoid any ontoward incident, as many as 12 patrolling teams and 13 PCR vans will keep a close eye on the routes of the Kanwariyas.

An additional force of 5 platoons of police will be deployed for safety of the Kanwarias and regulating the traffic.

As per tradition, Kanwarias collected holy water from different rivers on Sunday and moved on the roads carrying the Bahungis (slings with two pots hanging on both sides) on their shoulders to visit Shiva shrines on Monday. They chanted ‘Bol Bom, Hare Hare Bom’ all along the route.
