Maintaining law and order during religious festivals is a critical responsibility for the Punjab police, as large crowds and heightened emotions can sometimes lead to chaos. During major religious events such as Vaisakhi, Gurpurab, and Diwali, the police deploy additional personnel to manage traffic, prevent overcrowding, and ensure the safety of participants. They coordinate with religious leaders and local organizations to provide guidance on security measures and public order.
The police also work closely with emergency services, ensuring medical and firefighting resources are readily available in case of emergencies. Their proactive approach includes setting up barriers to control crowd movement and monitoring key areas with surveillance. These efforts ensure that the religious celebrations remain peaceful and enjoyable for all.
