In a bid to ensure the safety of devotees during Maha Kumbh 2025, the Yogi Adityanath-led government is implementing extensive security measures across the Mela area. Special attention is being given to identifying and monitoring suspicious individuals, with security forces maintaining heightened vigilance throughout the event.
Recently, Maha Kumbh police questioned four foreign nationals from Russia, Germany, and Belarus as part of routine checks. The authorities thoroughly examined their travel documents to ensure they complied with Indian regulations. After verifying their paperwork, authorities allowed three of the individuals to continue their stay, as their documents were in order. However, they discovered that Andre from Moscow had an expired visa and passport, which led to his deportation back to Russia.
