Kanpur Traffic Cops Gear Up for Janmashtami Festivities
2 Sep
Summary
- DCP Traffic conducted on-site inspection of major Kanpur temples.
- Action plan for traffic diversion and alternative routes is required.
- Adequate traffic police will be deployed at key temple locations.

Kanpur's traffic police are implementing a comprehensive plan to ensure smooth and safe movement during the upcoming Shrikrishna Janmashtami festival. DCP (Traffic) Ravindra Kumar recently conducted an on-site inspection of prominent temples, including ISKCON, J.K. temple, and Sanatan Dharma temple, to assess potential traffic challenges.
Officials have been directed to develop an effective action plan, considering the anticipated large crowds of devotees. This plan will involve clear traffic diversion strategies and the designation of alternative routes to manage the flow of vehicles. Emphasis is also placed on controlling unauthorized parking and vehicles that impede traffic flow near the temple premises.
To guarantee adequate support, a sufficient number of traffic police personnel will be deployed throughout the festival period. Deployment will be particularly concentrated at temple entry and exit points, major intersections, parking areas, and other locations likely to experience congestion. This proactive approach aims to maintain an organized traffic system.
