In the wake of past communal tensions and the significance of the occasion, senior police officers are leaving no stone unturned to maintain peace and order. Let’s delve into the steps taken to secure the region and maintain harmony during this crucial time.
Security Measures for Ram Mandir Inauguration:
Ahead of the inauguration of the Ram Mandir, scheduled for January 22, Bengaluru and various towns in Karnataka are witnessing a significant boost in security arrangements. The primary focus is on preventing any untoward incidents related to the installation of Balaram’s idol.
To achieve this, security has been intensified not only in the city but also in sensitive and ultra-sensitive areas across the state. Additional police personnel have been deployed to key locations, including places of worship, to ensure a strong presence and swift response if needed. Senior police officers are actively monitoring the situation, underscoring the gravity of the security measures in place.

Drawing from past experiences of communal tensions, the police are closely watching individuals previously involved in such incidents. Special attention is being given to those with a history of disturbing societal welfare, and the activities of rowdy sheeters are under constant surveillance.
Senior officers are taking a proactive approach by urging inspectors to organize peacekeeping meetings with leaders from all religious communities within their jurisdictions. The objective is to advise community leaders to maintain peace and order and to share information about individuals engaging in illegal activities.
To prevent any large-scale religious rallies or gatherings on January 22, authorities have imposed restrictions, aiming to control the crowd and maintain a secure environment. Additionally, there is a heightened focus on countering the spread of false information that may threaten communal harmony, with officials ready to call in police from different districts if necessary.
