In a vibrant display of devotion, Kanwariyas were spotted dancing on the highway in Meerut despite the rain on July 15, 2025. The Kanwariyas, carrying holy water from Haridwar, showcased their enthusiasm and faith as they sang and danced along the highway.
However, a contrasting incident was reported in the same area, where Kanwariyas clashed with a school bus. The bus slightly touched a Kanwariya, which led to the group vandalizing the bus’s windows. Fortunately, no children were inside the bus at the time of the incident.
Key Highlights of the Kanwar Yatra
- Kanwariyas’ Demands: The Kanwariyas claimed that their “kanwar was broken” during the incident with the school bus, sparking the altercation.
- Police Response: Authorities have been working to maintain law and order during the Kanwar Yatra, with police forces deployed along the route.
- Traffic Arrangements: The Delhi–Meerut road has been designated as one-way for Kanwariyas, with traffic restrictions in place to ensure smooth passage.
Administrative Preparations
To facilitate a peaceful Kanwar Yatra, local administrators have made several arrangements, including:
- Security Measures: Police and security personnel have been deployed along the Kanwar Yatra route to maintain order and ensure pilgrims’ safety.
- CCTV Surveillance: CCTV cameras have been installed to monitor the situation and respond promptly to any incidents.
- Medical Facilities: Medical teams are stationed along the route to provide immediate assistance in case of emergencies.
The Kanwar Yatra is a significant religious event, and authorities are working to ensure its smooth execution. Despite some incidents of unrest, the event has been largely peaceful, with devotees showcasing their faith and enthusiasm.
