In preparation for the Maha Kumbh Mela, the Uttar Pradesh Police have implemented a behavioral training program for officers to ensure that they approach pilgrims with respect and professionalism. The program emphasizes the importance of courteous behavior, especially when interacting with devotees in distress or those who may require assistance.
The police personnel are also instructed to observe strict discipline by maintaining a vegetarian diet and abstaining from alcohol during the festival, in alignment with the religious significance of the event. This initiative aims to foster a harmonious environment, enhancing the experience for millions of pilgrims while maintaining law and order at the event.
